  <tableOfContents>Introduction to the immune system : the nomenclature, general properties, and components of the immune system. - Innate immunity : the early defense against infections. - Antigen capture and presentation to lymphoctyes : what lymphocytes see. - Antigen recognition in the adaptive immune system : structure of lymphocyte antigen receptors and the development of immune repertoires. - Cell-mediated immune responses : activation of T lymphocytes by cell-associated microbes. - Effector mechanisms of cell-mediated immunity : eradication of intracellular microbes. - Humoral immune responses : activation of B lymphocytes and production of antibodies. - Effector mechanisms of humoral immunity : the elimination of extracellular microbes and toxins. - Immunological tolerance and autoimmunity : self-nonself discrimination in the immune system and its failure. - Immune responses against tumors and transplants : immunity to noninfectious transformed and foreign cells. - Hypersensitivity diseases : disorders caused by immune responses. - Congenital and acquired immunodeficiencies : diseases caused by defective immune responses.</tableOfContents>
