Q

What are the three phases of type III mechanism?

A

1- immune complex (antigen-antibody) deposits in tissues/blood vessels

2- complement cascade is activated

3- activation of neutrophils / mast cells

32
Q

How do you treat type III reactions?

A

suppress immune response

glucucorticoids
cyclophosphamide

33
Q

In type III reactions, the pathogen is the cause of clinical syndrome. True or false?

A

False- often the pathogen is long gone and the immune response is responsible for the clinical syndrome
