Revision as of 23:00, 22 October 2017

The immune system was the bodily system that fought against potentially pathogenic organisms or substances.

In 2152, Jonathan Archer metaphorically described T'Pol as having an "emotional immune system". (ENT: "The Seventh")

Pa'nar Syndrome affected the immune system of Vulcans as well as their endocrine system and synaptic pathways. (ENT: "Stigma")

The Denobulan immune system could fend off Borg nanoprobes, but only for a short time. (ENT: "Regeneration") Species 8472 also had an immune system that could fend off Borg nanoprobes, primarily due to the dense DNA of their cells. (VOY: "Scorpion", "Scorpion, Part II")

As a result of their carbon-based biology, the Human immune system was incapable of fighting silicon, such as in the form of a silicon-based virus. (ENT: "Observer Effect")

In the 2350s and 2360s, a research project at the Darwin Genetic Research Station developed Human children who had an aggressive immune system, capable of attacking disease organisms before they entered a Human body. (TNG: "Unnatural Selection")

Ferengi immune systems were rather strong. According to Quark, who wasn't infected by the aphasia virus in 2369, the Ferengi immune system should not be underestimated. (DS9: "Babel")
