55
Q

What is Type 1 hypersensitivity?

A

Type 1 (allergy) refers to immediate release of IgE, mediated release of histamine, and other vasoactive mediators resulting in manifestation within minutes. Examples include asthma or anaphylaxis.

56
Q

What is Type 2 hypersensitivity?

A

Type 2 (cytotoxic-antibody dependent) refers to binding of IgM or IgG to the target cell, which in this case is a host cell. This results in the membrane attack complex (MAC) destruction of the targeted cell. Examples include thrombocytopenia, Goodpasture, and membranous nephropathy.

57
Q

What is Type 3 hypersensitivity?

A

Type 3 (immune complex–mediated reaction) refers to IgG binding to circulating antigen resulting in formation of an immune complex. These complexes can end up collecting in the vasculature, joints, and kidneys resulting in local destruction. Examples include rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, and serum sickness.

58
Q

What is Type 4 hypersensistivity?

A

Type 4 (delayed type hypersensitivity) refers to the activation of TH1 helper T cells by an antigen-presenting cell. This establishes an immune response memory and when activated again, the TH1 cells activate a macrophage-mediated response resulting in cellular damage. Examples include chronic transplant rejection, contact dermatitis, and multiple sclerosis.

59
Q

What type of hypersensitivity is immunosuppression of transplant patients trying to prevent?

A

Transplant patients require immunosuppression to avoid a type 4 hypersensitivity.

60
Q

Briefly describe the 4 types of hypersensitivity:

A

Type 1: immediate release of IgE, mediated release of histamine, and other vasoactive mediators resulting in manifestation within minutes (asthma or anaphylaxis)
Type 2: IgM or IgM bind to host cell, cytotoxic antibody dependent
Type 3: immune complex-mediated reaction - IgG binding to circulating antigen (RA, SLE)
Type 4: delayed type; activation of Th1 helper T cells

61
Q

order that cells show up in a wound

A

platelets, neutrophils, macrophages, lymphocytes, and fibroblasts

62
Q

Describe the wound healing process

A

The appearance of cell types in an acute wound occurs in the following order: platelets, neutrophils, macrophages, lymphocytes, and fibroblasts, during the inflammatory phase.

  • The ensuing phases of wound healing consist of inflammation, collagen synthesis, angiogenesis, epithelialization, and remodeling.
  • after platelet aggregation and degranulation, chemoattractants, activation factors, and vasoconstrictors are released. An efflux of neutrophils occurs at the wound site to primarily sterilize the wound. Within 2 to 3 days, the inflammatory cell population shifts to monocytes that differentiate into macrophages, which orchestrate the repair process. Collagen synthesis occurs as circulating bone marrow-derived cells migrate into the wound and develop a fibroblastic cell function. These cells and local, activated fibroblasts synthesize and secrete the replacement collagen scar. Fibroblasts become the predominant cell type by 3 to 5 days in clean, noninfected wounds. As fibroplasia progresses, granulation tissue forms as a consequence of neoangiogenesis and the directed growth of vascular endothelial cells stimulated by platelet and activated macrophage and fibroblast products. Wound reepithelialization occurs as keratinocytes at the wound margins migrate and proliferate once epidermal continuity is reestablished. Remodeling of the resultant scar is a dynamic process that occurs slowly over months to years. Collagen deposition and degradation occur to yield a mature scar; however, maximum tensile strength of a wound reaches only approximately 80% of noninjured skin.

64
Q

65
Q

How long after isotretinoin treatment before pursuing cosmetic procedures?

A

6 months to 1 year

66
Q

Mechanism of retinoids

A
  • decrease corneocyte adhesion in the stratum corneum, resulting in reduced follicular occlusion and comedone formation.
  • increases dermal collagen production and decreases degradation over 6 to 12 months of treatment.
67
Q

Mechanism of hydroquinone

A

Suppresses metabolic processes of the melanocyte, specifically the inhibition of the oxidation of tyrosine to 3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (DOPA)

68
Q

When to give radiation to epithelioid sarcoma of the forearm

A

Preoperative radiation should be administered for epithelioid sarcomas, as it will help decrease tumor size and local recurrence rates.

  • Postoperative chemotherapy is appropriate for tumors that are high grade, greater than 10 cm in diameter, involve the lymph node, or are metastatic.
  • Epithelioid sarcomas are usually high grade, so excisional biopsy would not be appropriate. Forearm amputation should be considered if negative margins cannot be achieved. Wide excision with negative margins is a mainstay of surgical treatment.
69
Q

Mechanism of action of Botox

A
