hypersensitivity triggered by IgE bound to mast cells
Type 1
hypersensitivity mediated by Ab against fixed cellular or tissue antigens
Type 2
hypersensitivity mediated by deposition of immune complexes [Ab and its antigen[ on tissue leading to compliment fixation and inflammation
type 3
hypersensitivity mediated by cellular immune response without involvement of Ab
Type 4
when does Desensitization occur
allergen now produces IgG which replaces IgE on mast cells and prevents Type 1 reactions
How does a mast cell activate during Type I?
allergen cross links IgE on surface of mast cell
How does Sensitization occur in Type I?
allergen presented by Macrophage to CD4Th2 cell

Tcell produces IL4 and IL5
IL4=plasma cell switch from IgM to IgE synthesis
IL5=increases production of eosionophils
What type of Hypersensitivity?

Atopy = hay fever, eczema, hives, asthma, bee sting

ANaphylaxis = generalized ultiorgan dysfunction (bronchospasm and hypotension)

drug hypersensitivity
Type I
4 Types of Complement dependent reactions in Type II hypersensitivity
cell lysis by IgM antibody

tissue damage by IgG Ab - calls in C5a

Phagocytosis - IgG and C3b

COmplement independent reactions
-Anti-cell receptor IgG Ab --may inhibit or stimulate receptor sites (myasthenia gravis or hyperthyroidism)
Type III hypersensitivity Mechanisms
exposure to antigen leads to Ab and continued ere-exposure elevates antigen-Ab complexes

1. cause vascular permeability from MAC
2. produces C5a to attract Neutrophils which damage tissue in area of deposition
Type IV hypersensitivity

what are the 2 different types?
CD4 lymphocytes or Th1 cells


CD8 lymphocytes - cell-mediated cytoxicity
Type IV hypersensitivity - CD4 lymp/Th1 cells

--delayed hypersensitivity reaction

--Direct damage
CD4 lympho interact with Macrophag to cause
-caseous necrosis of TB
-demyelination of MS


Activated CD4 lympho produce cytokines which generate inflammation / fibrosis
ex: Scleroderma
Type IV hypersensitivity - CD8 lympho/cell-mediated cytoxicity

-CD8 T cells

-Contact dermatitis
CD8 T-cells interact with altered MHC I antigens on normal own cells or neoplastic, viral, or donor cells causing cell injury
(ex: POLYMYOSITIS)


CD8 T cells attack Antigens (or altered neoantigens from chemical damage) in skin
(ex: POISON IVY and NICKEL EXPOSURE)
Anti-DNA complexes in systemic Lupus Erythematosis damage kidney, skin, joints

this is an example of what type of hypersensitivity?
Type III
Glomerular damage in glomerulonephritis after streptococcal infection
Type III hypersensitivity
SLE causes Anemia, neutropenia and thrombocytopenia from what hypersensitivity reaction?
Type II
