Q

What type of hypersensitivity reaction is described by the following clinical examples?

Anaphylaxis, allergic rhinitis, allergic asthma, food allergies, and urticaria (hives)

A

Type 1

23
Q

What type of hypersensitivity reaction is described by the following clinical examples?

Contact dermatitis, tuberculin and anergy skin tests, hypersensitivity pneumonitis

A

Type 4

24
Q

What type of hypersensitivity reaction is described by the following clinical examples?

Serum sickness, Arthus reaction, SLE, RA, and drug reactions

A

Type 3

25
Q

What type of hypersensitivity reaction is described by the following clinical examples?

Transfusion rejections, autoimmune hemolytic anemia, hemolytic disease of the newborn, drug reactions, myasthenia gravis, Goodpasture’s syndroms, and Grave’s disease

A

Type 2

26
Q

Reaction characterized by deposition of ab-ag complexes in the blood vessels of skin

A

Arthus reaction

27
Q

An acute reaction that simultaneously involves multiple organs. Clinical signs begin within minutes after antigenic challenge and may involve brochospasm and laryngeal edema, vascular congestion, skin manifestations such urticaria (hives) and angioedema, diarrhea and vomiting, and intractable shock because of the effect on blood vessels and smooth muscle of the circulatory system.

A

Anaphylaxis

28
Q

The severity of this type of reaction depends on the number of previous exposures to the antigen resulting in an accumulation of IgE on mast cell and basophil cell surfaces.

A

Anaphylaxis

29
Q

Symptoms develop within a few minutes to a few hours; Ab mediated

A

Immediate hypersensitivity

30
Q

Symptoms not seen until 24-48 hours after contact with antigen; Cell mediated

A

Delayed hypersensitivity

31
Q

What occurs when IgE binds to antigen?

A

Degranulation of mast cell (or basophil)

32
Q

Preformed mediator of early phase symptoms that may cause vasodilation, vascular permeability, skin redness (erythema), and bronchiole obstruction.

A

Histamine

33
Q

Preformed mediator of early phase symptoms that can keep blood from clotting.

A

Heparin

34
Q

Preformed mediator of early phase symptoms that may attract eosinophils.

A

Eosinophil chemotactic factor for anaphylaxis (ECF-A)

35
Q

Preformed mediator of early phase symptoms that may attract neutrophils.

A

Neutrophil chemotactic factor

36
Q

Preformed mediator of early phase symptoms that may cause mucus production, cytokine activation, and convert C3 to C3b.

A

Proteases

37
Q

Secondary mediator that may cause platelet aggregation, attract eosinophils and neutrophils.

A

Platelet activating factor (PAF)

38
Q

Secondary mediator that may cause vasodilation, vascular permeability and skin redness.

A

Prostaglandin D2 (PGD2)

39
Q

Secondary mediators that may attract neutrophils and eosinophils, cause vascular permeability, bronchoconstriction, and mucous production.

A

Leukotrienes

40
Q

Secondary mediator that may attract neutrophils and eosinophils and increase IgE production.

A

Cytokines

41
Q

An in vivo test that can detect hypersensitivity to a wide variety of inhaled or food allergens. A positive result is indicated by a wheal-and-flare reaction with a diameter greater than 3 to 4 mm.

A

Percutaneous allergy test

42
Q

An in vivo test that is more sensitive and uses a greater amount of antigen. This test is sensitive to many allergens, but has no benefit in the diagnosis of food allergens.

A

Intradermal (tuberculin) allergy test

43
Q

A noncompetitive radioimmunoassay used to detect allergen-specific IgE

A

RAST

44
Q

A noncompetitive immunoassay used to detect total IgE

A

RIST

45
Q

What is known to be the method of choice for most allergy specialists?

A

A commercial noncompetitive fluoroimmunoassay (instead of using radioactive labels)

46
Q

What type of hypersensitivity used to be tested using RIST and RAST?

A

Type 1

47
Q

Detects in vivo attachment of antibodies to the patient’s own red cells.

A

Direct Coombs’ Test

48
Q

What type of hypersensitivity can be tested using Coombs’ test?

A

Type 2

49
Q

Detects in vitro attachment of antibodies in the patient’s serum to a panel of reference RBCs with known antigens on their surfaces.

A

Indirect Coombs’ Test

50
Q

Immune complex deposition in SLE occurs in multiple organs, but where does the main damage occur?

A

In the glomerular basement membrane of kidneys

51
Q

Which autoimmune disorders are type 3 hypersensitivity?

A

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and SLE

52
Q

Agglutination reaction, EIA, histological fluorescent staining, complement level testing, and antibody identification are all used to test what type of hypersensitivity?

A

Type 3

53
Q

Tuberculin skin test for Mycobacterium tuberculosis antigen or PPD (purified protein derivative) injected under skin and read in 48-72 hours is an example of a test for what type of hypersensitivity?

A

Type 4
