Host Defense Response

Molecular classification
Immune system, Innate immunity, Adaptive immunity, Physical barriers, Chemical barriers
01

Overview

The host defense response refers to the collective biological mechanisms by which an organism protects itself from infectious agents. It encompasses both innate and adaptive immunity, physical and chemical barriers, and the contribution of the normal microbiota. Failures or dysregulation of these responses can lead to infection, immunodeficiency, autoimmunity, or allergy.
