Type 1 Hypersensitivity Flashcards
true immediate type reaction is mediated by this
IgE
luekotrienes that are produced in type 1 HS
C, D, E (slow reacting substance of anaphylaxis)
IgE binds to Fc receptor on these cells
mast cells and basophils
complement components C3a and C5a can bind to this receptor, which will cause non-IgE mediated type 1 HS
CR1
what is receptor for histamine induced smooth muscle contraction?
7 spanning GPCR
what occurs in early/acute phase of type I HS? (mediated by mast cell activation -> histamine, leukotrienes)
contraction SMC and immediate inflammation/edema
what mediates early/acute phase type 1 HS?
mast cell activation (release histamine, producing leukotrienes)
these cells mediate late phase of type 1 HS; what recruits these cells?
eosinophils, neutrophils, monocytes, cytokines; mast cell mediators
peak reaction to histamine occurs within this time period
20 min
what is released from granules in activated mast cells?
histamine, proteases, chemotactic factors
what must given to EVERY patient that is presenting with asthma (helps treat late phase reaction)
corticosteroid
where are mast cells found in local lesions of type 1 HS?
subepithelial tissues near BV
early morphology of type 1 HS
mast cells, edema/erythema, SMC contraction, mucus secretion
localized tissue reactions of type 1 HS
allergic rhinitis, allergic asthma, urticaria, wheal/flare
treatment for clinical syndromes of type 1 HS
antihistamines, anti-leukotrienes, steroids
