Major Immune SystemsMajor Immune SystemsRequired for Host DefensesRequired for Host Defenses
Innate: non-specific, inborn1. Phagocytosis2. Complement
Acquired: specific, adaptive1. Humoral immunity -- antibodies2. Cellular immunity -- sensitized T cells
Immune Compromised PersonImmune Compromised Person
person with impairments in the body’s normal mechanisms of defense against infection.
individual with 1 or more defects in body’s normal defense mechanisms that predispose them to infections, often opportunistic and life-threatening, that would otherwise not occur.
increasing % of population.degree of immune deficiency can vary with time &
therapy.
Categories of Host Defects Associated with Categories of Host Defects Associated with Impaired ResistanceImpaired Resistance
1. defects in cutaneous barriers: (severe dermatological conditions)2. mucous membrane barrier defects: (mucositis; trauma, smoking)3. conditions that cause obstruction of a natural body passage:
(neoplasia; foreign bodies; cystic fibrosis) 4. abnormal number of functional granulocytes: (leukemia, anti-
neoplastic chemo; aplastic anemia; diabetes; congenital disorders)5. cell-mediated immunity abnormalities: (HIV; chemotherapy; aging;
BM transplantation; corticosteroids; severe malnutrition)6. humoral immunity abnormalities: (BM transplantation; aging; HIV;
chronic lymphocytic leukemia; congenital deficiencies; acquired hypogammaglobulinemia)
7. pts with multiple immune defects: aging; severe trauma; alcoholism; obesity; splenectomy; corticosteroids; chemotherapy)

Clinical Disease ManifestationsClinical Disease ManifestationsMay be different in immune compromised
host vs. immune competent person:1. accelerated pace of disease progression.2. initial minor infections may become life-
threatening.3. granulocytopenic patients develop little
purulence at localized infection sites.4. elderly patients may only show confusion as
infection sign.5. patients on corticosteroids may have
diminished fever response to infection.APIC Epid Text (2009)
Early Immunoglobulin Development Early Immunoglobulin Development In Fetus & InfantIn Fetus & Infant
Congenital Immunodeficiency Congenital Immunodeficiency Syndromes: Antibody SynthesisSyndromes: Antibody Synthesis
Selective IgA Deficiency:- most common inherited specific Ab deficiency.- noted in 1 of 700 - 800 persons. - no obvious disease susceptibility.- occurs more commonly in people with chronic
lung disease.- diminished secretory immune protection.- more common than diagnosed ? - increased susceptibility to acute GI, respiratory,
oral infections.
Immunodeficiency ClassificationImmunodeficiency ClassificationCongenital:
- genetically inherited defects.- recessive / autosomal; X chromosome mutations.- recessive defects cause disease when both X
chromosomes have defect -- thus, males with genetic defect in single X chromosome will manifest disease.
- females can be healthy carriers of a specific genetic abnormality.
- before advent of antibiotics & fetal genetic testing, most individuals died in infancy or early childhood.
Immunodeficiency ClassificationImmunodeficiency Classification
Secondary (Acquired): - many extrinsic causes.- defects in T – cells, B – cells, or both.- can also develop as sequelae to initial
microbial infection. - multiple immune defects can occur in
same person (i.e. elderly cancer patient on cancer chemotherapy).

HIV / AIDS HIV / AIDS
Debilitated Cellular Immunity Defenses:- Kaposi’s sarcoma & other neoplasms- opportunistic fungal & viral infections- severe viral recurrences ( i.e. herpesviruses) - intracellular bacterial infections (i.e. TB) - condyloma acuminatum (maxillofacial; genital)- rapidly progressing periodontal diseases- other unusual microbial & parasitic infections
Oral Infections / Manifestations OfOral Infections / Manifestations OfHIV DiseaseHIV Disease
Fungal Lesions:
- CandidiasisBacterial Lesions:
- Linear Gingival Erythema (HIV-gingivitis)- Necrotizing Ulcerative Gingivitis (NUG),
Periodonitis (NUP), & Stomatitis (NUS)Viral Lesions:
- Oral Hairy Leukoplakia - CMV Infection- HSV Infection - Papillomavirus Infection
Changing Patterns of HIV / AIDS Changing Patterns of HIV / AIDS Opportunistic Infections Opportunistic Infections
Widespread use & success of combination antiretroviral therapy (beginning in 1996): - observed PCP decline, disseminated M. avium
complex (MAC), & invasive cytomegalovirus disease decreases.
- HIV – related immune suppression impt. - respiratory illness: TB & endemic fungal
infections (histoplasmosis, coccidiomycocis). - 100x greater risk invasive pneumococcal
disease.

granulocytes purulence in infections can be diminished or absent.
- neutrophils show impaired ability to migrate. - diminished bactericidal chemotaxis.
NeoplasiaNeoplasia
Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia:- usually involves B - lymphocytes.- affects humoral (Ab) immune responses.- secondary hypogammaglobulinemia, with
secondary bacterial infection.- primarily respiratory bacterial infections. - encapsulated bacteria: pneumococci,

Immunosuppression In DiabetesImmunosuppression In Diabetes
Est. 7% US adults (8 million).Susceptible to many local & systemic infections.Certain infections tend to be more common.Impaired Innate Cellular Defenses:- PMN abnormalities - adherence, chemotaxis,
phagocytosis, intracellular microbial killing.- prolonged, less effective, pathogen response. - susceptible to metastatic acute infections.- abnormalities in maocytes / macrophages .
Immunosuppression In DiabetesImmunosuppression In Diabetes
Humoral Immunity:- normal Ab levels & vaccination responses.
Cellular Immunity:- decreased T- lymphocyte responses.- abnormal Type IV (delayed) hypersensitivity.

- ongoing medical conditions (HBV, HCV, diabetes)- lack of specific immunity ( susceptible to primary
EBV, VZV, CMV, etc)- prior MO colonization ( Candida, staph, VRE)- prior latent infection (TB, CMV, HSV, VZV)- prior medications (i.e. immunosuppressives,
antibiotics)

- immunosuppressive drugs Allograft Reactions:
- graft-vs-host reaction (cofactor in CMV &fungal infection)

Common Microbial Etiologies PostCommon Microbial Etiologies Post--TransplantationTransplantation
Bacteria: common gm+ & gm- flora- local contaminant infections & can spread
Fungi: Candida sp.; Aspergillus sp.; Pneumocystis- superficial mycoses which can metastizize- Candida common in liver transplant pts- Aspergillosis airborne from environment

Autoimmune Diseases:Autoimmune Diseases:Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE)Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE)
Multiple infection risk factors: 1. functional defect in phagocytic cells.2. CMI defects: lymphopenia, CD4 - cell
lymphopenia, & decreased cytokines.3. reduced Ab levels & low complement levels. 4. low capacity to eliminate microbes -- due to
functional asplenia.5. also, corticosteroids & immunosuppressives
increase infection risks.

Susceptible to local & systemic infections.Related to immune defects & disease therapy.Viral: VZV, Cytomegalovirus, EBV,
Parvovirus B19.Bacterial: Salmonella, S. pneumoniae, Mtb,

Infectious Complications In Asplenic PtsInfectious Complications In Asplenic Pts
Critical role in immune surveillance & response.Asplenic pts: lower C3 levels & defective
responses to encapsulated bacterial pathogens- decreased phagocytosis & destruction of
microbes.- failure to recognize polysaccharide Ag’s.- impaired IgM synthesis early in infection.- failure to remove Ab - coated bacteria.- prone to post-splenectomy sepsis (PSS). - S. pneumoniae (#1), H influenzae (#2),
N. meningitidis (#3)
Streptococcus pneumoniae (#1):- etiology in 50 – 90% PSS cases. - age major factor - % cases increase with age.- high mortality rate in children.Haemophilus influenzae (#2):- 32% of PSS mortality.- decreased incidence with conjugated Hib
vaccine use (important to vaccinate pts!!). Neisseria meningitidis (#3):- greater risk for meningococcemia (?)
