Alterations in immune fx Flashcards
hypersensitivity
normal immune response that is inappropriately triggered OR
excessive OR
produces undesirable effects on body
basic triggers
antigen-antibody reaction OR
specific antigen-lymphocyte infection
type I, II, III triggers
controlled/mediated by ANTIBODIES produced by B cells that mature into plasma cells to produce antibodies
Are type I II III triggers immediate or slow reaction?
immediate reaction
type IV trigger
mediated by T cells
is type IV trigger a delayed or immediate reaction?
delayed
Type 1 IgE mediated reaction
response in someone developing an ALLERGY
IgE antibodies produced
anaphylaxis reaction if serious
immediate reaction (15-20 min) after second exposure
examples of type 1 triggers
pets, pollen, bee stings, nuts, seafood, eggs, penicillin, contrast dye
causes of type 1 triggers
proteins in environment, foods, meds
genetic link
B lymphocytes, IgE antibody, last cells
patho of type 1
B cell
plasma cell + antibodies
mast cells + chem mediators
intravascular mediators
anaphylactic shock
skin mediators
urticana
atopic dermatitis
wheal flare reaction
angioedema
respiratory mediators
rhinitis
asthma
GI mediators
N/V/D
cramping
potent vasodilation
stuffy nose
decreased BP
wheals on skin
increased vascular permeability
edema
