The former innate immunity is principally located at the surface area such as skin and mucosal compartment, while the latter acquired immunity is observed mainly in the circulating ...

The adaptive (aka “acquired”) immune system : from friend to foe [PDF]
The Paradox of the Immune System, 2022 The purpose of the immune system is simple—protect the human organism from foreign (antigenic) invasion and resultant disease. The innate immune response (“our best friend”) does a great job of accomplishing that defense under most circumstances. But sometimes, innate immunity confronts an adversary (a pathogen) that overwhelms it and produces a ...
