INDEX
•As early as 2000 BC, disease, pestilence, and epidemics were recorded in
Egypt.
• Until quite recently, disease was regarded as a punishment from God or gods.
God struck down those with evil in their hearts, it was a penalty and the
ultimate price was death. For those who survived, they had clearly seen the
error of their ways, had repented and made their peace with God. Their return
to the faith ensured their future lack of attack by the disease. With this
approach to death and disease there was little chance of developing an
understanding of the immune system.

Especificidad de los anticuerpos por antígeno
In 1891, Paul Erlich was the first to use the term “antikorper”, the German word for antibody
In 1897, he proposed the idea that the “side chain” receptors on the surface of
cells could bind to specific toxins in a “lock-and-key” interaction

serviría de molde alrededor del cual el anticuerpo se
acoplaría.

Burnet, and David W. Talmage.
1. Un linfocito, un receptor.

In 1940, Linus Pauling at the California Institute of
Technology confirmed the lock-and-key theory
proposed by Erlich and was awarded the Nobel Prize
in Chemistry in 1954 “for his research into the nature of
the chemical bond and its application to the elucidation of
the structure of complex substances” including antibodies
and the nature of serological reactions.
