Innate Immune Response

Molecular classification
Immune System, Biological System
01

Overview

The innate immune response is the body's first line of defense against pathogens. It is a rapid, nonspecific response that does not require prior exposure to a pathogen. Key components include physical barriers (skin, mucous membranes), cellular defenses (phagocytes, NK cells, mast cells), and molecular defenses (complement proteins, cytokines). It recognizes pathogens through pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and activates the adaptive immune response when necessary.
