Immune System (Allergy and Asthma)

A collection of cells and proteins that works to protect the body from potentially harmful, infectious microorganisms, such as bacteria, viruses, and fungi.


Immune System (Baby)

The network of cells, organs, and tissues that defend the body againstinfection and disease.

Immune System (Beauty)

Intricate mix of cellular, molecular, and antibody components (proteins) that protects the body against foreign invaders.


See more Beauty Terms ...

Immune System (Blood and Marrow Transplant)

Body's defense network againts infections and foreign substances


Immune System (Bone Disorders)

Complex network of specialized cells and organs that work together to defend the body against attacks by "foreign" invaders such as bacteria and viruses; in some rheumatic conditions, it appears that the immune system does not function properly and may even work against the body.


Immune System (Breast Cancer)

The tissues, organs and physiological processes used by the body to identify a protein as foreign or abnormal and prevent it from harming the organism. It is the system used by the body to protect itself from foreign invaders.


Immune System (Cancer)

A collection of cells and proteins that works to protect the body from potentially harmful, infectious micro-organisms (microscopic life-forms), such as bacteria, viruses and fungi. The immune system plays a role in the control of cancer and other diseases, but can become the culprit in allergic reactions and the rejection of transplanted organs, tissues and medical implants. The main components of the immune system are the white blood cells. Cancer of the white blood cells is called leukaemia.

Immune System (Dairy Production)

Tissues and organs (spleen, lymph nodes, etc.) involved in the defense against foreign bodies and responsible for the production of antibodies.


Immune System (Dermatology)

A collection of cells and proteins that works to protect the body from potentially harmful, infectious microorganisms, such as bacteria, viruses, and fungi.


Immune System (Female Health)

The integrated working of a number of the body's cells and organs to defend against infection


Immune System (Fertility)

The body's defense against any injury or invasion by a foreign substance or organism


Immune System (Food)

E cells and tissues which are responsible for recognizing and attacking foreign microbes and substances in the body.


See more Food Terms ...

Immune System (Food and Health)

The cells and tissues which are responsible for recognizing and attacking foreign microbes and substances in the body.


Immune System (Gaucher Disease)

A collection of cells and proteins that work to protect against foreign organisms or substances in the body.


Immune System (Gynecological)

Group of organs, antibodies, and cells that defends the body against infection or disease.


Immune System (Gynecology)

Group of organs, antibodies, and cells that defends the body against infection or disease.


Immune System (HIV and AIDs)

The network of white blood cells and the chemical products they produce to protect the body from foreign "invaders." One major division is between the "cellular" portion, which involves T cells, and the "humoral" portion, which involves B cells that make antibodies. The two parts work hand-in-hand.


Immune System (Health)

The immune system consists of many organs and cells that defend the body against infection, disease, and foreign substances. The immune system can be stimulated in specific ways to fight specific health challenges.

Immune System (Health and Beauty)

Intricate mix of cellular, molecular, and antibody components (proteins) that protects the body against foreign invaders.


Immune System (Hepatitis B)

The body’s defense system against invasion by foreign bodies such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, parasites, and malignant cells.


Immune System (Hepatitis C)

The system which secures the body from harm by "fighting" against the harmful effects from pathogenic agents or influences.


Immune System (Huntingtons Disease)

The cells and tissues involved in recognizing and attacking foreign substances in the body.


Immune System (Immunization)

The complex system in the body responsible for fighting disease. Its primary function is to identify foreign substances in the body (bacteria, viruses, fungi or parasites) and develop a defense against them. This defense is known as the immune response. It involves production of protein molecules called antibodies to eliminate foreign organisms that invade the body.


Immune System (Lasik)

The body's internal defense system which defends you from dangers such as infections, cancer, etc. Normal healing is coordinated with the immune system. Occasionally abnormal immunity can cause problems such as iritis or arthritis. These conditiions are referred to as auto-immune conditions meaning your immune system becoming confused and attacking your body.

Immune System (Legal, Mesothelioma)

The complex system by which the body resists infection by microbes such as bacteria or viruses and rejects transplanted tissues or organs. The immune system may also help the body fight some cancers.


Immune System (Lymphoma)

A number of related body organs whose main role is protection of the body against disease organisms and other foreign bodies.


See more Lymphoma Terms ...

Immune System (Medical)

The cells, substances, and structures in the body that protect against infection and illness


See more Medical Terms ...

Immune System (Multiple Sclerosis)

A complex network of glands, tissues, circulating cells, and processes that protect the body by identifying abnormal or foreign substances and neutralizing them.


Immune System (Nutrition)

A complex system that depends on the interaction of many different organs, cells and proteins. Its chief function is to identify and eliminateI foreign substances such as harmful bacteria that have invaded the body. The liver, spleen, thymus, bone marrow, and lymphatic system all play vital roles in the proper functioning of the immune system.


Immune System (Oncology)

The body's natural defense system which produces antibodies to fight against foreign substances such as bacteria, viruses, toxins, and cancers.


See more Oncology Terms ...

Immune System (Organ Transplant)

The components of the body that defend against infection, disease, and foreign substances.


Immune System (Ozone Protection)

In humans and animals, the cells and tissues involved in recognizing and attacking foreign substances in the body.


Immune System (Prostate Cancer)

The biological system which protects a person or animal from the effects of foreign materials such as bacteria, viruses, cancer cells, and other things which might make that person or animal sick


Immune System (Science)

The body's system for destroying invaders. It includes white blood cells, such as macrophages and lymphocytes


See more Science Terms ...

Immune System (Sexually Transmitted Diseases)

A group of cells inside the body that all work together to keep a person healthy by killing germs. These cells can tell the difference between the cells that are part of the body and those things that don't belong inside someone. They defend or protect the body from enemies or invaders like viruses, bacteria and other germs. Lymph nodes and white blood cells are two parts of the IMMUNE SYSTEM.


Immune System (Skin Cancer)

A collection of cells and proteins that works to protect the body from potentially harmful, infectious microorganisms, such as bacteria, viruses, and fungi.


Immune System (Spine, Shoulder and Pelvis)

Complex network of specialized cells and organs that work together to defend the body against attacks by "foreign" invaders such as bacteria and viruses; in some rheumatic conditions, it appears that the immune system does not function properly and may even work against the body.


Immune System (Surgery)

The body's defense against disease and infection. This system
alerts white blood cells to fight off foreign things such as viruses,
bacteria, or transplanted organs.

Immune System (Women's Health)

A complex system in the body that recognizes and responds to potentially harmful substances, like infections, in order to protect the body.


Immune System (Womens Health)

A complex system in the body that recognizes and responds to potentially harmful substances, like infections, in order to protect the body.
