Type I hypersensitivity mechanism
Anaphylactic.
#1: IgE on mast cells binds antigen and/or C3a/C5a
#2: Release of vasoactive amines, enzymes, proteoglycans (primaries), and AA products (secondaries)
Type II hypersensitivity mechanism
Cytolytic - antibodies bind to antigens on cells or ECM
IgG/IgM-opsonized cells can be attacked by:
Phagocytes binding Fc
Complement via MAC and inflammation
ADCC via NK
Type III hypersensitivity mechanism
Immune complex - antibodies bind to soluble antigens, deposit, inflame
Type IV hypersensitivity mechanism
Cell-mediated (delayed) - activated T-cells engage either via Th1 CD4+ or via CD8+
Type I hypersensitivity priming
#1: Ag binds to naive Th-cells
#2: Th-cells become Th2-cells
#3: When Th2-cells encounter Ag, produce:
IL-4 (B-cell class switch IgE, Th2 development)
IL-5 (Eosinophil development)
IL-13 (IgE production, mucus secretion)
#4: Mast cells + basophils bind IgE
Mast cell lipid mediators
Cellular infiltration - LTB4
Vasodilation, permeability - LTC4, LTD4, LTE4
Smooth muscle spasm - LTC4, LTD4, LTE4, PD2, PAF (not AA)
Mast cell cytokines
Attracts granulocytes and monocytes: TNF, IL-1, eotaxin
Amplifies Th2: IL-4
Eosinophil support: IL-3, IL-5
Transfusion reaction type
Type II hypersensitivity (cytolytic) on donor RBCs
Erythroblastosis fetalis reaction type

Drug reaction type
Drug binds to RBC, acts as hapten for IgG activation, type II hypersensitivity against RBCs
