Abstrakt		Immunity consist of several mechanisms evolved to protect host organisms against infectious deseases. Microorganisms use different strategies to elict immune responses of the host. The immune system must be able to combat all invading pathogens and their virulence factors. The observed differences in the effectiveness of immune response to various infectious diseases reflect differences between individual infecting pathogens. Immune mechanisms protecting against intracellular bacteria differ from those protecting against extrecelular bacteria. Specific protective mechanisms are involved in immunity against parasite and viral infections.
Izvleček		Imunost omogočajo številni mehanizmi, ki so se skozi evolucijo izoblikovali kot odgovor na mikrobne okužbe. Mikrobi na zelo raznolike načine skušajo obiti obrambo gostiteljev. Imunski sistem mora biti prilagojen na vsakega od njih. Zaradi različne narave mikrobov so ob okužbah nekatere vrste obrambe pomembnejše od drugih. Določeni mehanizmi so bolj učinkoviti proti zunajceličnim, drugi pa proti znotrajceličnim bakterijam. Posebne zakonitosti veljajo za okužbe z virusi in zajedalci.
