Difference between Glucocorticoid and Humoral immunity

Glucocorticoid vs. Humoral immunity

Glucocorticoids are a class of corticosteroids, which are a class of steroid hormones. Humoral immunity or humoural immunity is the aspect of immunity that is mediated by macromolecules found in extracellular fluids such as secreted antibodies, complement proteins, and certain antimicrobial peptides.

Similarities between Glucocorticoid and Humoral immunity

Glucocorticoid and Humoral immunity have 15 things in common (in Unionpedia): Antibody, B cell, Body fluid, Cell-mediated immunity, Chemotaxis, Cytokine, Extracellular fluid, Immune system, Immunology, Inflammation, Opsonin, Pathogen, Phagocytosis, Urine, Vertebrate.

Antibody

An antibody (Ab), also known as an immunoglobulin (Ig), is a large, Y-shaped protein produced mainly by plasma cells that is used by the immune system to neutralize pathogens such as pathogenic bacteria and viruses.

B cell

B cells, also known as B lymphocytes, are a type of white blood cell of the lymphocyte subtype.

Body fluid

Body fluid, bodily fluids, or biofluids are liquids within the bodies of living people.

Cell-mediated immunity

Cell-mediated immunity is an immune response that does not involve antibodies, but rather involves the activation of phagocytes, antigen-specific cytotoxic T-lymphocytes, and the release of various cytokines in response to an antigen.

Chemotaxis

Chemotaxis (from chemo- + taxis) is the movement of an organism in response to a chemical stimulus.

Cytokine

Cytokines are a broad and loose category of small proteins (~5–20 kDa) that are important in cell signaling.

Extracellular fluid

Extracellular fluid (ECF) denotes all body fluid outside the cells.

Immune system

The immune system is a host defense system comprising many biological structures and processes within an organism that protects against disease.

Immunology

Immunology is a branch of biology that covers the study of immune systems in all organisms.

Inflammation

Inflammation (from inflammatio) is part of the complex biological response of body tissues to harmful stimuli, such as pathogens, damaged cells, or irritants, and is a protective response involving immune cells, blood vessels, and molecular mediators.

Opsonin

An opsonin (from the Greek opsōneîn, to prepare for eating) is any molecule that enhances phagocytosis by marking an antigen for an immune response or marking dead cells for recycling (i.e., causes the phagocyte to "relish" the marked cell).

Pathogen

In biology, a pathogen (πάθος pathos "suffering, passion" and -γενής -genēs "producer of") or a '''germ''' in the oldest and broadest sense is anything that can produce disease; the term came into use in the 1880s.

Phagocytosis

In cell biology, phagocytosis is the process by which a cell—often a phagocyte or a protist—engulfs a solid particle to form an internal compartment known as a phagosome.
