defect of NADPH oxidase, decrease in oxygen species, abnomal dihydrorhodamyne test
corn neck granny doesnt have a PHD!
type 1 hypersensitivity
IgE, Basophils, Mastcells
anaphylactic, atopic, IgE on mast cells, food, asthma
early IgE, late: chemokines
type 2 hypersensitivity
IgG&IgM autoantibodies
+complement
NK, Eosonophisl, Neutrophils, Macrophages
Antibodies bind to the cell-surface antigens, direct combs test.
Cellular destruction: Phagocytosis, NK.
Inflammation: bindinding Antibody
good pastures, RA, hyper-acute transplant rejection,
myastenia gravies, graves disease, pemphigus vulgaris
type 3 hypersensitivity
Immune complex deposition/ antibody–antigen complex
Neutophils
(IgG), SLE, polyarthritis nodosa, poststrep glumerulonephritis.
Serum sickness
Arthus reaction- local
type 4 hypersensitivity
T-cell and Macrophages
CD8+ cytotoxic T kill target directly, inflammatory through CD4 realse of cytokines. TB, transplant rejection, Chrons, MS, GB, Celiac, RA
positive slection
thymic cortex
negative selection
thymic medulla
C3b
opsonisation b for binding to bacteria
C3a, C4a, C5a
a for anaphylaxis
C5a
neurophil chemotaxis
decay acc. factor (DAF, aka CD55) and C1 esterase inhibitor
help prevent complement activation
early complement deficiencies
(C1-C4) sinus, respitory infec. SLE
terminal complement deficiencies
(C5-C9) increased susceptibility to current neisseria infections
Hyperacute transplant rejection
within minute, type 2 hypersensitivity, activates compliment, widespread thrombosis of graft vessels. Graft must be removed
Acute transplant rejection
cellular: CD8+ T cell or CD 4+ activated against donor MHCs (type 4 hyper. reaction). ——Vaculitis of graft vessels and dense interstitial lymphocytic cellular infiltrate. Revers. with immunosup. Humoral
Chronic trans. rejection
CD4+T cell responds to recipient APCs presenting donor potides including allogeneic MHC. Humoral and cellular type 1 and type4. Recipient T cell react an secret cytokines—–> prolif of smooth muscles, parenchymal atrophy, interstitial fibrosis
graft versus host disease
graft immunocompetent Tcells proliferate in the immunocompromised host and reject host cells with foreign proteins—-> severe organ disfunc. Type 4

what is an allergic reaction/ anphylactic reaction of a blood transfusion?
