| immunochemotherapy | <immunology, oncology> The use of a combination of immune system therapy and chemotherapeutic drugs to treat cancer. (09 Oct 1997) |
|---|---|
| immunocompetant | Able to develop an immune response. The opposite of immunodeficient. (12 Dec 1998) |
| immunocompetence | <immunology> The bodys ability to develop an immune response to infection or disease. Immunocompetence is measured to see how well the body can fight off certain disease. Many cancer patients become immunocompromised, where their immune system is not as strong as a healthy person's. (16 Dec 1997) |
| immunocompetent | Able to recognise and act against invading antigens. (09 Oct 1997) |
| immunocomplex | Complexes of antibody and antigen. See: immune complex. (05 Mar 2000) |
| immunocompromised | A condition in which the immune system is not functioning normally. (16 Dec 1997) |
| immunocompromised host | A human or animal whose immunologic mechanism is deficient because of an immunodeficiency disorder or other disease or as the result of the administration of immunosuppressive drugs or radiation. (12 Dec 1998) |
| immunoconglutinin | <protein> Antibodies that react with complement components or their breakdown products. Usually directed against C3b or C4 and found in high titre in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. They are formed in response to infection or injection of antigens. (14 Oct 1997) |
| immunoconjugates | Combinations of diagnostic or therapeutic substances linked with specific immune substances such as immunoglobulins, monoclonal antibodies or antigens. Often the diagnostic or therapeutic substance is a radionuclide. These conjugates are useful tools for specific targeting of drugs and radioisotopes in the chemotherapy and radioimmunotherapy of certain cancers. (12 Dec 1998) |
| immunocyte | <haematology, immunology> A leukocyte that is able to stage an immune response. (09 Oct 1997) |
| immunocytoadherence | <technique> A method for determining cell surface properties, in which immunoglobulin or receptors on the surface of one cell population cause cells with corresponding molecular configurations on their surface to adhere in rosettes around the cells. A process through which specific antibody-forming cells bind to antigenicparticles, forming clusters. (21 Jun 2000) |
| immunocytochemical assay | Involves the computerised assessment of microscopic fields following direct fluorescent antibody, indirect fluorescent antibody or indirect or direct immunoperoxidase analysis of biopsy tissue from the patient. In addition to improved specificity with the removal of operator subjectivity, the quantifiability of results through computer data analysis of colour, intensity and concentration has only begun to be realised. (05 Mar 2000) |
| immunocytochemistry | <technique> Techniques for staining cells or tissues using antibodies against the appropriate antigen. Although in principle the first antibody could be labelled, it is more common (and improves the visualisation) to use a second antibody directed against the first (an antiIgG). This second antibody is conjugated either with fluorochromes or appropriate enzymes for colourimetric reactions or gold beads (for electron microscopy) or with the biotin avidin system, so that the location of the primary antibody and thus the antigen, can be recognised. (18 Nov 1997) |
| immunodeficiency | Inabillity to mount a normal immune response. Immunodeficiency can be due to a genetic disease or acquired as in aids due to HIV. (12 Dec 1998) |
| immunodeficiency disorders | <radiology> B-cell (antibody) deficiency: high-grade pathogens: pneumococcus, strep, H. Flu, chronic sinopulmonary disease, usual survival to adulthood, T-cell (cellular) deficiency: low-grade pathogens: fungi, viruses, Pneumocystic, growth retardation, diarrhoea, delayed anergy, short life-span, susceptible to graft vs. Host (GvH) disease, e.g.: DiGeorge syndrome, Nezelhof syndrome Note: increased risk of malignancy (12 Dec 1998) |
