functional inactivation of a lymphocyte
|
anergy
|
|
B cells that can't enter the spleen or lymph nodes because they have not been activated by both antigen and T cell interaction and die by apoptosis
|
anergic B cells
|
|
costimulatory signal required by a B cell to avoid being anergized

immune priveleged sites
|
|
an autoimmune disorder in which autoantibody acts as an antagonist to Ach receptrors leading to severe muscle weakness and ultimate respiratory failure
|
myasthenia gravis
|
|
an autoimmune disorder in which TSH receptor receives continual stimulation due to an autoantibody
|
Graves disease

|
IgE mediated reactions (allergy), immediate hypersensitivity
|
type I hypersensitivity
|
|
cytolytic or cytotoxic reaction where IgM or IgG bind inappropriately to antigen on self-cells
|
type II hypersensitivity
|
|
immune complex reactions that occur due to accumlation of Ig or IgG complexes
|
type III hypersensitivity
|
|
cell mediated hypersensitivity (T cell mediated) that is typically delayed

|
manifestations of Type I hypersensitivity
|
|
type of hypersensitivity that result illustrated by a transfusion reaction
|
Type II
|
|
1. Cell lysis via activation of complement through IgM or IgG 2. Phagocytosis through engagement of IgG Fc portion on phagocytic cells 3. Autoantibodies acting as antagonists or agonists on receptors
|
3 Modes of Type II Hypersensitivity Reaction
|
|
complement components released during a type III hypersensitivity reaction that result in an acute inflammatory response
