Describe TYPE 1 HS.
1) What is anayphylaxis? 2) What happens with the induction of IgE response? 3) What's the difference between primary and secondary mediators? |
* It is mast cell, basophil mediated
1) Can have anyphylaxis: systemic and localized. Examples are asthma, allergic rhinitis 2) Get induction of IgE response after antigen exposure- - TH2 cells as well 3) Primary: preformed mediators Secondary: synthesized mediators |
|
Describe Type 2 HS.
1) What diseases are associated with this? (6) 2) What is the mechanism of Type 2 HS? |
* Direct attack on cells. tissues by antibodies
1) Hemolytic anemia, erythroblastosis fatalis, Goodpasture syndrome, Myesthenia gravis, Rheumatic fever, Graves' disease 2) - So get induction of anti- self antibodies, and antibodies bind to self- constituents - Complement fixation/ activation - Tissue lysis/ opsonization/ phagocytosis/ cell- mediated cytotoxicity |
|
Describe Type 3 HS.
1) What diseases are associated with this? (5) |
* damage secondary to deposition of immune complexes (IgG- Ag)
1) Glomerulonephritis, serum sickness, polyarteritis nodosa, arthus reaction - Get induction of antibodies and form Ab- Ag complexes - Deposition of copmlexes in tissues or on cells - Complement activation and prod of comp factos - Neutrophil attraction and degranulation and tissue destruction |
|
Describe Type 4 HS.
1) What diseases/ reactions are associated with this? (3) 2) What are major characteristics |
* T-cell/ macrophage mediated/ DTH
1) Tuberculin reaction, granuloma formation, contact dermatitis 2) - Must first get sensitization of T cells - Ag processing and presentation - Rechallenge or chronic Ag challenge - Production of cytokines and chemokines - Attract other cells and actication of macs - Form giant cells - Activate CD8 cytotoxic T cells - Form granulomas |
|
Describe the significance of Graft/ Tranplant rejection.
|
* Combination of HS reaction types 2- 4, but not type 1
|
|
What are the 4 types of transplant rejection?
|
1) Ab mediated: hyperacute rejection, thrombosis vessel attack
2) Acute rejection: host becomes sensitized to donor tissue - Cellular and Ab mediated - Get attack on vessels (vasculitis), parenchymal attack and damage 3) Chronic rejection: mixed mechanism, but many macs and T cells and plasma - Extensive and longstanding damage and fibrosis to graft 4) Graft vs. Host disease - Can have acute and chronic - Tranplanted tissue attack the host - See in skin, liver, GI tracts are most affected |
