type I hypersensitivity reactions
Anaphylactic
-allergen activates B-lymphocytes and IgE
- HISTAMINE is the primary mediator
- these responses are FIRST and FAST
Type II hypersensitivity reactions
Cytotoxic
- antibodies against antigens absorbed on carious tissue components (cell surfaces)
- IgM and IgG
- Rh diseases
- rheumatic fever
type III hypersensitivity reactions
Immune-complex mediated
- Ag/Ab complexes
- activates the compliment response
*SLE
Type IV hypersensitivity reactions
Delayed or cell mediated
-T lymphocytes encouter a pathagen an release leukokinin leading to a macrophage activation
disease affects multiple systems and includes butterfly (malar) rash
