DEFENSES AGAINST INFECTIOUS DISEASES : PRIMARY AND SECONDARY IMMUNE RESPONSE
The first time you are infected with a virus—influenza, for example—you react immunologically to antigens produced by the virus. A virus is usually inhaled in mucus droplets from an infected person (for example, after a sneeze); it is absorbed in the mucous layer of the respiratory tract, penetrates susceptible cells in the nose, bronchi, or lungs, and multiplies. While infection is continuing, macrophages in the infected area are engulfing virus particles. Macrophages then present some form of the virus protein to a B lymphocyte that is predetermined to produce an antibody to that antigen. The B lymphocyte then produces an antigen (IgM) to influenza virus.
Up to this point, the virus has had one to two days to incubate in the respiratory tract. During this time you may have chills, aching muscles, and fever. Fever may continue for several days. As soon as enough virus is present to be detected by your immune cells, you begin your defense against the infection. Within 24 hours after immune cell recognition of the viral antigen, you may produce some specific IgM. Within seven days after antigen recognition, you have a high level of IgM in your blood, and some IgG, another antibody, is being produced. Within two weeks after antigen recognition, you have a high level of IgG in your blood; it is this IgG that can protect you from subsequent influenza virus infections. This is your primary immune response.
When infected a year later with similar influenza, you have an antibody present in your blood that can react with the virus (and macrophages) to aid in ridding your body of the virus. At this time, some of your plasma cells, which were previously committed to making the specific antibody to influenza A virus, recognize the antigen of this year's virus (A group). These committed cells are now ready to commence production of IgG directly, and do so immediately. The second dose of natural influenza virus antigen acts like a vaccination that stimulates your immune cells to produce an influenza-specific antibody. This is your secondary immune response.
