Fundamental of Medical Immunology is realized in the forms of lectures, seminars and practicals. The aim is to introduce the complex and modern concept of the function of the immune system as principal integrating body system. The emphasize is put on the understanding of the role of cellular substrate of immune response, differentiation of immune cells and description of their function. Special emphasize is given to gain the knowledge of the participation of immune system into the both protective and adverse inflammatory response. Protective inflammatory response against invasion of pathogenic microbes including active immunisation is described. Adverse inflammation is characterized on the molecular and cellular level with the respect to specific characteristic of this type of inflammation in various clinical contexts. The special emphasize is given to the mechanism of immune systém in mouth cavity in the health in diseases. Various attempts how to modulate adverse inflammatory response including administration of biologics is described. Mechanism of action of different biological drugs to overcome cancer cell escape from immune surveillance are described. The primary and secondary immunodeficiencies, including HIV infection and AIDS are presented. The diagnostic procedures and the way how to modulate immune system in immunodeficient patients are given. The basic framework of immunological test used in clinical practice is explained. The indication and interpretation of these immunological tests is given in clinical context of differential diagnostic procedures. Poslední úprava: Kalousová Jana (22.05.2024)

The complex knowledge of the function of immune system as the principal integral body system and its role in both protective and adverse inflammation is gained in this subject. These informations are used in the context of clinical practice especially in the framework of differential diagnostic procedures. The special emphasize is given to understand modulation of immune system including active immunisation. All this knowledge is given in the context of stomatological practice.
