Host Defenses Innate – Prior stimulation not needed (non-specific) – Often needed to trigger adaptive defenses Adaptive – Respond after stimulation by the pathogen or agent (specific defenses, immune response) Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Barriers Physical Skin – Stratified – Close intercellular junctions – Waterproof, dead cells Mucous membranes – Simple epithelium – Mucus layer Mechanical defenses – Urine flow – Secretions Chemical – pH – Salt – Lysozyme Transferrin – Serum Lactoferrin – Saliva, milk, mucus Defensins – Mucus and Extracellular fluid – Lyse microbial cells Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
