Q

Hypersensitivity:

Type 1

A 
Asthma 
Anaphylaxis 
Allergy 
Urticaria )hives
Angioedema 
Lactose Intolerance
18
Q

Allergies can cause

A

Anaphylaxis
Urticaria -> hives
Angioedema

19
Q

Type 1 hypersensitivity steps

A
  1. Th2 CD4
  2. B cell
  3. IgE made
  4. IL4 (class switch), IL5 (activate eosinophils), IL13 (higher IgE)
  5. IgE activates mast cells to its FceRI receptor
  6. When exposed again : mast cells release = Histamine, arachodonic acid, Leukotrines, PGE, PAF
20
Q

Mast cells release substances that cause

A

Bronchoconstriction
Bowel peristalsis
Vasodilation + permeability = edema

21
Q

Type 1 hypersensitivity late phase steps

A
  1. Eosinophils come, basophils, N

2. Epithelial damage

22
Q

Eosinophilic esophagitis

A

Childhood disease of type 1 hypersensitivity (more during late phase SX) to food
= massive amounts of E made
= recurrent dysphagia (hurts to swallow)
= weight loss

23
Q

DX type 1 hypersensitivity

A

Skin prick test

24
Q

Type 2 hypersensitivity

A
  1. Graves
  2. RF
  3. Vasulitis
  4. Hemolytic anemia autoimmune
  5. Thrombocytopenia purpura autoimmune
  6. Goodpasture
  7. Myasthenia gravis
  8. Pernicious anemia
  9. Insulin-resistant DM
25
Q

Type 2 hypersensitivity steps for 1st kind

A

Opsonizing and phagocytosis
C3b
= gets rid of cells

26
Q

Type 2 hypersensitivity steps for kind 2

A

Inflammation when Fc R is bound and activates complement

(Streptococcus, BM proteins)= damage tissue

27
Q

Type 2 hypersensitivity steps for kind 3

A

Ab mediated causing cellular dysfunction
= disrupted endocrine signaling
= disrupted dneural signaling

28
Q

Type 2 hypersensitivity kind 1

A

Anemia

Thrombocytopenia

29
Q

Type 2 hypersensitivity kind 2

A

Goodpasture
Acute Rheumatic Fever
Vasculitis

30
Q

Type 2 hypersensitivity kind 3

A

Insulin- resistant DM
Myasthenia gravis
Graves (hyperthyroidism)

31
Q

Rheumatic heart

A

Streptococcus infection, Ab made and cross react and react with similar looking Ab on the myocardium = scarring of tissue

32
Q

Type 3 hypersensitivity

A

Ab-Ag complexes form no deposit, causing damage
Usually surface of BVs, skin ,kidney, heart, lungs, joint
Platelet aggregation

33
Q

Serum sickness

A

Acute rash, fever, joint pain from Serum given to someone with diphtheria antitoxin and it forms Ab-Ag complexes that deposit

34
Q

Type 3 hypersensitivity EX

A 
SLE
Arthus reaction (rabbits injected with horse serum, rare to vaccination at local spot)
35
Q

How to see if there is kidney damage to type 3, type 2

A

Immunofluorescence = inject dye that is an Ab that binds to all Ab-Ag complexes (specifically Ab part) and you can see how much of kidney biopsy lights up (glomerulus)

36
Q

Immunofluroescent staining of glomerulus causing smooth linear dye stain is a

A

Type 2 hypersensitivity

= Goodpasture syndrome

37
Q

Immunofluorescence of glomerulus forming a Grainy, granular dye stain is a

A

Type 3 hypersensitivity
= lupus nephritis
= poststeptococcal glomerulonephritis

38
Q

Type 4 hypersensitivity

A

T-cells
CD4+ (cytokines, inflammation)
CD8+ (activated by Ag on cells)

39
Q

Type 4 hypersensitivity EX

A 
T1D (t-cells attack B cells in pancreas)
Immune granuloma formation 
MS
IBS
Dermatitis 
RA
TB
40
Q

Testing of TB

A

Injection of PPD seeing if T-cells have been exposed

= Manthoux test

41
Q

Type 4 hypersensitivity are

A

Delayed type
