Q

How does ESR change in inflammation?

A

Increase
Products of inflammation (e.g. acute phase reactants) coat RBCs and cause aggregation. This aggregation causes RBCs to fall at a faster rate within the test tube (i.e. increased rate of sedimentation).

what is a type II hypersensitivity rxn?
Hypersensitivity involves the binding of antibodies to cell surface antigens causing damage through classical complement activation or cell cytotoxicity.
244
what is a type III hypersensitivity rxn?
Hypersensitivity involves local or circulating antibody-antigen complexes that cause damage by getting trapped in tissues and activating complement proteins.

what is type I hypersensitivity?
Hypersensitivity involves IgE and mast cell-mediated liberation of Histamine causing local and systemic anaphylaxis.
