TY - GEN N2 - The immune system is a double-edged sword -- too little immunity we become susceptible to infection; too overactive and it leads to autoimmune diseases. This study guide covers viruses and the different ways they can be organized (by function, route of entry, or structure), cellular mechanisms of T cell activation, immunosuppressant drugs that target T cell activation, primary immunodeficiencies, and hypersensitivity reactions.
