Q

type II hypersensitivity characteristics

A

RBC antigens

blood transfusion between genetically different individuals, the red cell antigens will stimulate an antibody response in the recipient

Antibody + complement = RBC destruction

animals may have antibodies against foreign blood group antigens even without previous exposure

Q

hemolytic disease of the newborn (HDN) neonatal isoerythrolysis

A
  1. newborn with different blood type than mother
    ex - mom is Aa- and baby is Aa+
  2. mother must be sensitized to this red cell antigen
  3. mother’s response must to be boosted to transplacental hemorrhage or repeated pregnancies
  4. newborn animal must ingest colostrum with high antibodies against its red cells

foal ingests antibodies against its RBC and will produce hemolytic disease

23
Q

local type III hypersensitivity important complement component

A

C5a

C5a is chemotactic for neutrophils

24
Q

local type III hypersensitivity - arthus reaction

A

high level of antibodies in bloodstream, antigen injected SQ

red edematous swelling, local hemorrhage, thrombosis, tissue destruction

6-8 hours reaction

first neutrophils, then macrophages = nitric oxide, chemokines, leukotrienes, cytokines

25
Q

local type III hypersensitivity - reversed arthus reaction

A

high levels of antigens, antibodies injected SQ

26
Q

what complement component attracts neutrophils

A

C5a

27
Q

pathogenesis of arthus reaction - macrophages

A

produce nitric oxides –> proteases and oxidants –> tissue destruction

produce proinflammatory cytokines (IL-1, TNF-a) –> enhanced selectin expression –> neutrophil emigration –> neutrophil accumulation –> degranulation –> proteases and oxidants –> tissue destruction

28
Q

pathogenesis of arthus reaction - neutrophils

A

phagocytosis –> neutrophil accumulation –> degranulation –> proteases and oxidants –> tissue destruction

29
Q

pathogenesis of arthus reaction - mast cells

A

degranulation –> proteases and oxidants –> tissue destruction

30
Q

pathogenesis of arthus reaction - activated complement

A

C5a –> neutrophil chemotaxis –> neutrophil accumulation –> degranulation –> proteases and oxidants –> tissue destruction

31
Q

local type III hypersensitivity - blue eye

A

canine adenovirus type-1

produced in response to vaccination when the dog has high levels of antibodies against canine adenovirus

inflammation of fungus of the eye

accumulation of immune complexes and neutrophils in cornea

after a few days goes back to normal

32
Q

local type III hypersensitivity - hypersensitivity pneumonitis

A

Saccharopolyspora rectivirgula

fungus in hay –> animals in contact with hay and get fungus

hypersensitivity produced

animals develop pneumonia due to constant contact with antigen

nasal secretions

33
Q

local type III hypersensitivity - staphylococcal hypersensitivity

A

chronic infection of skin causes chronic lesions from chronic exposure to antigen

34
Q

what happens to IC under normal circumstances

A

IC are removed by erythrocytes and macrophages

35
Q

what happens in generalized type II hypersensitivity where there is production of high amount of IC

A

IC get deposited in blood vessels where there is a physiological outflow of fluid

glomeruli in kidney
choroid plexus in brain
synovial membranes in joints

36
Q

Generalized type III hypersensitivity steps?

A
  1. IV antigen + circulating antibodies
  2. Immune complex (IC)
  3. Production of high amounts of IC leads to deposition on blood vessels with physiological outflow of fluid
37
Q

how are IC removed in primates

A

binding to complement receptors of RBC

carried to liver where they are transferred to Kupffer cells for phagocytosis

38
Q

what happens to IC in type III generalized in absence of complement components

A

significant accumulation of IC occurs in tissues

IC bind to receptors on platelets

39
Q

serum sickness

A

generalized type III

thrombosis, inflammation of kidney and joints

once IC eliminated, everything goes back to normal

40
Q

Generalized type III - high IC accumulate in arteries

A

neutrophil accumulation

leads to arteritis

41
Q

Generalized type III - high IC accumulate in kidney

A

proliferation response

leads to glomerulonephritis

42
Q

Generalized type III - high IC accumulate in synovial membranes

A

neutrophil accumulation

leads to arthritis

43
Q

two types of IC

A

soluble complexes

insoluble complexes

44
Q

what happens to soluble IC

A

get deposited in blood vessels walls

sometimes bound to red cells and are removed by mononuclear phagocytic cells in liver

45
Q

what happens to insoluble IC

A

removed by mononuclear phagocytic cells in liver

46
Q

A

where blood filtration occurs

47

A

on either side of on within the basement membrane

48

49

50
Q

type II glomerulonephritis

A

mesangioproliferative glomerulonephritis –>

capillary endothelial proliferation, mesangial proliferation, capillary wall thickening –>

dense deposits within glomerular basement membrane, do not contain Ig, but do contain C3 –>

type II glomerulonephritis

51
Q

where are type I, II, and III, glomerulonephritis located in glomerulus

A

type I –> mesangial cells, capillary endothelial cells

type II –> basement membrane

type III –> epithelial cells

52

A

these can accumulate and produce inflammation

complement activation and attraction of neutrophils

53

A

avoid normal filtration of blood

54
Q

large immune complexes
