3.2 Factors Affecting the Immune System Vaccines are weakened versions of a disease pathogen that are given to people to protect them from getting the disease later. Vaccines allow your body to create antibodies against the disease. Boosters are needed for some vaccines to extend the immune system’s memory. See pages 110 - 111 (c) McGraw Hill Ryerson 2007

Disorders of the Immune System Allergies An allergy is an unusually high sensitivity to some substance. Any substance that causes an allergic reaction is called an allergen. Common allergens are: milk, pollen, and dust. Body releases a chemical called histamine to fight allergen. Common symptoms include a runny nose and watery eyes. Severe allergies can cause an anaphylactic shock. Dust Mite See pages 112 - 113 (c) McGraw Hill Ryerson 2007

Disorders of the Immune System AIDS – Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome AIDS is caused by a virus called HIV HIV attacks the immune system by infecting Helper T Cells. When other pathogens or antigens enter the body the immune system can’t activate Killer T cells or B cells. AIDS is transmitted by blood and semen. Illustration of HIV See pages 113 - 114 (c) McGraw Hill Ryerson 2007

Taking Care of Your Immune System Important steps you can take to help your immune system stay healthy. See page 114 (c) McGraw Hill Ryerson 2007
