GO:0006952 defense response Reactions, triggered in response to the presence of a foreign body or the occurrence of an injury, which result in restriction of damage to the organism attacked or prevention/recovery from the infection caused by the attack.
GO:0009607 response to biotic stimulus Any process that results in a change in state or activity of a cell or an organism (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of a biotic stimulus, a stimulus caused or produced by a living organism.
GO:0006950 response to stress Any process that results in a change in state or activity of a cell or an organism (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of a disturbance in organismal or cellular homeostasis, usually, but not necessarily, exogenous (e.g. temperature, humidity, ionizing radiation).
GO:0006955 immune response Any immune system process that functions in the calibrated response of an organism to a potential internal or invasive threat.
GO:0045087 innate immune response Innate immune responses are defense responses mediated by germline encoded components that directly recognize components of potential pathogens.
GO:0001906 cell killing Any process in an organism that results in the killing of its own cells or those of another organism, including in some cases the death of the other organism. Killing here refers to the induction of death in one cell by another cell, not cell-autonomous death due to internal or other environmental conditions.
GO:0044699 single-organism process A biological process that involves only one organism.
GO:0008150 biological_process Any process specifically pertinent to the functioning of integrated living units: cells, tissues, organs, and organisms. A process is a collection of molecular events with a defined beginning and end.
GO:0050896 response to stimulus Any process that results in a change in state or activity of a cell or an organism (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of a stimulus. The process begins with detection of the stimulus and ends with a change in state or activity or the cell or organism.
GO:0002376 immune system process Any process involved in the development or functioning of the immune system, an organismal system for calibrated responses to potential internal or invasive threats.
GO:0001909 leukocyte mediated cytotoxicity The directed killing of a target cell by a leukocyte.
GO:0002449 lymphocyte mediated immunity Any process involved in the carrying out of an immune response by a lymphocyte.
GO:0002443 leukocyte mediated immunity Any process involved in the carrying out of an immune response by a leukocyte.
GO:0002252 immune effector process Any process of the immune system that can potentially contribute to an immune response.
GO:0002228 natural killer cell mediated immunity The promotion of an immune response by natural killer cells through direct recognition of target cells or through the release of cytokines.
GO:0002347 response to tumor cell Any process that results in a change in state or activity of a cell or an organism (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of a stimulus from a tumor cell.
GO:0002418 immune response to tumor cell An immune system process that functions in the response of an organism to a tumor cell.
GO:0042267 natural killer cell mediated cytotoxicity The directed killing of a target cell by a natural killer cell through the release of granules containing cytotoxic mediators or through the engagement of death receptors.
GO:0002420 natural killer cell mediated cytotoxicity directed against tumor cell target The directed killing of a tumor cell by a natural killer cell through the release of granules containing cytotoxic mediators or through the engagement of death receptors.
GO:0002423 natural killer cell mediated immune response to tumor cell An immune response mediated by a natural killer cell triggered in response to the presence of a tumor cell.
