Abstract

The immune system of animals is a biochemical complex of structure (lymphocytes, T-cells and B-cells, Kupffer’s cell of the liver and leukocytes) and processes (formation of antigens and antibodies, phagocytosis, others) to protect against foreign bodies like tumors and toxins. In the case of fish, the immune responses are influenced by many factors, including stress, hormonal changes, seasonal effects, intercurrent infections, drugs and environmental pollutants. Fishes are protected from infections, transformed cells and other invaders by several interdependent mechanisms.
