课程名称:免疫学:自身免疫、过敏和移植 概述:本课程将探索自身免疫疾病及超反应现象(如哮喘)中涉及的机制和免疫反应。您将详细研究过度活跃的免疫系统的潜在原因和因素,以及如果反应未能得到适当控制可能导致的疾病。此外,您还将分析过度免疫反应在移植排斥中的影响。 课程大纲: 1. **自身免疫简介**:本模块将探讨自身免疫的机制,研究各种自身免疫疾病类型,并讨论新的治疗方案。 2. **系统性红斑狼疮(SLE)**:本模块将详细介绍一种常见的自身免疫病——系统性红斑狼疮,探讨该疾病的成因、风险因素及其免疫学起源,同时关注环境因素的影响。 3. **血液自身免疫疾病**:本模块将研究影响特定血液成分的两种自身免疫疾病,通过这些疾病,专家将阐明其免疫失调的原因、发病机制及治疗策略,最后介绍其他自身免疫血液疾病及其免疫学原因。 4. **哮喘与过敏反应**:本模块将探讨哮喘和过敏疾病,这些是最常见的慢性炎症疾病,特别是在儿童中,在西方国家的流行程度不断上升。将研究遗传和环境因素之间的相互作用,以及免疫细胞亚群在其中的作用,讨论正在开发的新治疗策略的研究。 5. **抗体介导的移植排斥**:本课程的最后一个模块将重点研究移植手术及免疫系统在这一生命拯救干预中的作用。通过探讨先天和适应性免疫细胞及其分子的参与,您将更好地理解为防止移植物排斥而采取的治疗措施。
Name:Introduction to autoimmunity
Description:Autoimmunity, characterised by self-aggression by the immune system, is a series of highly complex and multifactorial conditions which result from uncontrolled immune responses. In module one, you will explore the mechanisms involved in autoimmunity, investigate autoimmune disease types and discuss novel treatments.
Name:Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE)
Description:In the company of our world-wide expert, module two will present a common autoimmune condition, systemic lupus erythematosus in more details. Together, you will explore the causes and risks factors at the origin of the condition, you will focus on the immune origins of the diseases and touch on the impact of environmental factors.
Name:Haematological autoimmune conditions
Description:In module three, you will explore two autoimmune conditions affecting specific blood components. Using these two conditions, our expert will illustrate their causative immune dysregulation, their pathogenesis, and current treatment strategies. Finally, the course will illustrate additional autoimmune blood condition and detail their immunological cause.
Name:Asthma and allergic reactions
Description:Asthma and allergic diseases constitute the most common chronic inflammatory disorders, particularly in children, with constantly increasing prevalence in Westernised countries. Module four will explore these complex conditions. The interactions between genetic and environmental factors as well as the involvement of immune players, notably the cells subsets that are involved, and the research that is being conducted to develop novel treatment strategies.
Name:Antibody-mediated transplant rejection
Description:Module 5, last one in this course, will focus on transplantation and the role of the immune system in this life-saving intervention. By exploring the involvement of both innate and adaptive immune cells and molecules, your will ultimately better understand the therapeutic measures taken to ultimately prevent graft rejection.
In this course, you will explore the mechanisms and immune responses involved in autoimmune diseases and in hyper-responsive phenomena, such as asthma. You will examine in detail the potential causes and factors behind an overactive immune system and the disorders that might ensue if the response is not adequately controlled. you will also analyse the effects of overactive immune response in transplant rejection.
