17
Q

How are skin allegories diagnosed

A

Wheal flare reaction in 10-20 minutes followed by late phage 6-12 hours
Antigens injected into dermis

18
Q

Characteristics of desensitization therapy to allergies

A

High or low dose
Promote production of IgG rather than IgE
Want to switch immune response from Th2 to Th1

19
Q

What are some characteristics of vasogenic shock

A

rapid smooth muscle contraction in bronchi, gas. tract, uterus, and bladder
Severe vascular pooling due to peripheral vasodilation

20
Q

Where does ruminant have anaphylaxis

21
Q

Where does horse have anaphylaxis

A

Respiratory tract, intestine

22
Q

Where does swine have anaphylaxis

A

Respiratory tract, intestine

23
Q

Where do dogs have anaphylaxis

A

Hepatic vein constriction

24
Q

Where do cats have anaphylaxis

A

respiratory tract, intestines

25
What are characteristics of type 2 sensitivity
rapid destruction of foreign red cells bound by antibody | reaction to ones own cells
26
What does type 2 reaction release
complement fragments degranulation of mast cells cytokines
27
What is the main similarity between type 1,2,&3 sensitivities
Antibody mediated
28
What are examples of type 2 reactions
Transfusion reactions -neonatal isoerythrolysis Cross-match between donor and recipient -essential in pig, horse, dogs, and cats for first transfusion
29
Where do type 3 reactions occur
Kidney Eye Joint
30
What are characteristics of type 3 sensitivity
IgG Immune complexes occur activation of complement
31
What are the three significant pathways of type 3 reactions
1. Cytokines IL-1 and TNF-a cause local tissue damage 2. Immune complexes form, phagocytes activated, neutrophils degranulate 3. Immune complexes activate complement
32
Arthus reaction is
Local tissue reaction
33
Generalized immune complexes
circulating complexes serum sickness Organ damage
34
What is serum sickness
Generalized vasculitis | neutropenia
35
Membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis....
``` IC deposits in the glomerulus Proteins leaks into the urine loss of oncotic pressure Small molecules such as anti-thrombin 3 lost heartworm ```
36
What's type 4 sensitivity
cell mediated immune response T helper 1 cytokines gone wrong Recruit more T cells and macrophages= more chemokines= more cells
37
What is the most important cytokine in type 4 hypersensitivity
IFN-gamma
38
Type 4 pathophysiology
Type 1 cytokines fail to kill microorganisms tubercles form: multinucleated giant cells mycobacterium bacilli most common is chemicals and large particles
39
Allergic contact dermatitis
Type 4 sensitivity in dermis | poison ivy
40
Hypersensitivity
Inappropriately vigorous immune response to foreign antigen
