Robbins Chapter 6 Tables Flashcards
Immediate (Type I) hypersens. immune mechanism
Production of IgE to release vasoactive amines and mast cells
Immediate (Type I) hypersens. histopathologic lesions (6)
vascular dilation, edema, smooth muscle contraction, mucus production, tissue injury, inflammation
Immediate (Type I) hypersens. prototypical disorders (3)
anaphylaxis, allergies, bronchial asthma
Antibody-mediates (Type II) hypersens. immune mechanism
production of IgG and IgM
binds to antigen on cell or tissue
phagocytosis or lysis of target cell by complement or Fc receptor
recruit leukocytes
Antibody-mediates (Type II) hypersens. histopathologic lesions (4)
phagocytosis, lysis of cells, inflammation, potentially no tissue injury
Antibody-mediates (Type II) hypersens. prototypical disorders (2)
autoimmune hemolytic anemia, goodpasture syndrome
Immune complex-mediated (type III) hypersens. immune mechanism
deposition of antigen-antibody complexes
complement activation
recruitment of leukocytes by complement products
release enzymes and toxic molecules
Antibody-mediated (Type II) hypersens. histopathologic lesions (2)
inflammation, necrotizing vasculitis (fibrinoid necrosis)
Antibody-mediates (Type II) hypersens. prototypical disorders (3)
systemic lupus erythematosus, serum sickness, arthus reaction
Cell-mediated (Type IV) hypersens. immune mechanism
activated T lymphocytes
release of cytokines
inflammation and macrophage activation
T cell-mediated cytotoxicity
Cell-mediated (Type IV) hypersens. histopathologic lesion (4)
perivascular cellular infiltrates, edema, granuloma formation, cell destruction
Cell-mediated (Type IV) hypersens. prototypical disorders (4)
contact dermatitis, multiple sclerosis, type 1 diabetes, tuberculosis
Immediate Hypersensitivity Examples (4)
Anaphylaxis, bronchial asthma, allergic rhinitis, food allergies
Clinical and Pathologic Manifestations of Anaphylaxis
fall in blood pressure (shock) caused by vascular dilation, airway obstruction due to laryngeal edema
Clinical and Pathologic Manifestations of bronchial asthma
airway obstruction caused by bronchial smooth muscle hyperactivity, inflammations and tissue injury caused by late-phase reaction
Clinical and Pathologic Manifestations of allergic rhinitis, sinusitis (hay fever)
increased mucus secretion, inflammation of upper airways, sinuses
Clinical and Pathologic Manifestations of Food allergies
increased peristalsis due to contraction of intestinal muscles
Autoimmune hemolytic anemia
target antigen: red cell membrane proteins
mechanism of disease: opsonization and phagocytosis of red cells
manifestation: hemolysis, anemia
Autoimmune thrombocytopenia purpura
target antigen: platelet membrane proteins
mechanism of disease: opsonization and phagocytosis of platelets
manifestation: bleeding
Pemphigus vulgaris
target antigen: proteins in intercellular junctions of epidermal cells
mechanism of disease: antibody-mediated activation of proteases, disruption of intercellular adhesions
manifestation: skin vesicles (bullae)
Vasculitis cause by ANCA
target antigen: neutrophil granule proteins
mechanism of disease: neutrophil degranulation and inflammation
manifestation: vasculitis
Goodpasture syndrome
target antigen: noncollagenous protein in basement membrane of kidney and lung
mechanism of disease: complement and Fc receptor mediated inflammation
manifestation: nephritis, lung hemorrhage
Acute Rheumatic fever
target antigen: streptococcal cell wall antigen
mechanism of disease: inflammation, macrophage activation
manifestation: myocarditis, arthritis
Myasthenia gravis
target antigen: Ach receptor
mechanism of disease: antibody inhibits Ach binding, down modulates receptors
manifestation: muscle weakness, paralysis
