immune system
(gcide) | immune system \im*mune" sys"tem\, n. (Biol.)
The complex of cells, cellular processes, and substances
within and diffused throughout an organism which allow the
organism to counteract or destroy noxious foreign substances
introduced into the body, destroy infectious agents such as
bacteria and viruses, destroy malignant cells, and remove
cellular debris, thus protecting the organism against many of
the potentially harmful external agents and internal events
that could lead to sickness or death. The system has numerous
interacting components, including circulating antibodies,
antibody-producing cells, white blood cells and lymphokines,
lymph tissue and lymph nodes, and stem cells which may
differentiate into other types of cell, together with the
thymus and spleen. The system is responsible for the
phenomenon of immunity[3]. See also immunoglobulin and
antibody.

immune tolerance
(gcide) | Tolerance \Tol"er*ance\, n. [L. tolerantia: cf. F.
tol['e]rance.]
1. The power or capacity of enduring; the act of enduring;
endurance.
[1913 Webster]
Diogenes, one frosty morning, came into the market
place, shaking, to show his tolerance. --Bacon.
[1913 Webster]
2. The endurance of the presence or actions of objectionable
persons, or of the expression of offensive opinions;
toleration.
[1913 Webster]
3. (Med.) The power possessed or acquired by some persons of
bearing doses of medicine which in ordinary cases would
prove injurious or fatal.
[1913 Webster]
4. (Forestry) Capability of growth in more or less shade.
[Webster 1913 Suppl.]
5. the allowed amount of variation from the standard or from
exact conformity to the specified dimensions, weight,
hardness, voltage etc., in various mechanical or
electrical devices or operations; -- caklled also
allowance specif.: (Coinage) The amount which coins,
either singly or in lots, are legally allowed to vary
above or below the standard of weight or fineness.
[Webster 1913 Suppl. +PJC]
6. (Biochemistry) the capacity to resist the deleterious
action of a chemical agent normally harmful to the
organism; as, the acquired tolerance of bacteria to
anitbiotics.
[PJC]
7. (Immunology) the acquired inability to respond with an
immune reaction to an antigen to which the organism
normally responds; -- called also immunotolerance,
immunological tolerance, or immune tolerance. Such
tolerance may be induced by exposing an animal to the
antigen at a very early stage of life, prior to maturation
of the immune system, or, in adults, by exposing the
animal to repeated low doses of a weak protein antigen
(low-zone tolerance), or to a large amount of an antigen
(high-zone tolerance).
[PJC]
Tolerance of the mint. (Coinage) Same as {Remedy of the
mint}. See under Remedy.

nonimmune
