T cell mediated hypersensitivity
type IV
mast cell degranulation hypersensitivity
type I
complement mediated hypersensitivity
type II
activated macrophage hypersensitivity
type IV
immune complex deposition hypersensitivity
type III
cells involved in type I hypersensitivity
- mast
- basophils
- eosinophils
preformed mediators type I hypersensitivity
- histamine
- ECF-A
- heparin
Secondary mediators type I hypersensitivity
- PAF
- leukotrienes
- prostaglandins
reaction site type I hypersensitivity
local
systemic
Reactions type I hypersensitivity
hay fever
asthma
anaphylaxis
disease in which immune response to allergen leads to tissue damage and organ dysfunction
allergy
clinical manifestation of type I hypersensitivity like asthma, eczema, hay fever, allergy
atopy
people who suffer from immediate hypersensitivity
atopic
reaction resulting in vasodilation and construction of smooth muscle
anaphylaxis
most common clinical allergy
allergic rhinitis
where is allergic rhinitis localized?
nasal mucosa
conjunctiva
IgE mediated, BHR, bronchus
asthma
common skin disorder
atopic dermatitis
substance that gives rise to immediate hypersensitivity
allergen, antigen, Ag
physical properties of allergen
- most proteins
- small
- soluble
how are allergens classified?
routes of exposure
IgE
- monomer
- low concentration
- short half life
- eosinophils
is there placental transfer in IgE?
virtually none
Phases of type I hypersensitivity
sensitization
triggering phase
acute reaction, allergen + IgE
anaphylactic reaction
acute reaction, no allergens or IgE, codeine, morphine
anaphylactoid reaction
Fatal laryngeal edema
reaction to penicillin
Urticaria
vascular reaction
increased vascular permeability
urticaria characterized by
erythema
wheal
