Increase immune response is termed as hypersensitivity or allergy. When immune system work fast then it is required. Types- 1. immediate hypersensitivity 2. delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) Hypersensitivity response:-
Immediate hypersensitivity Delay-type hypersensitivity Its response is very early, with in 12 hours of antigen attacks. Its response in little slow, it takes 24-48 hours. By antigen-antibody complex or by reactive antibody forms. By reactive T H cell, antigen presenting cell present antigen to TH cell
IgE - mediated hypersensitivity Most common cell involved in type-I are basophills and mast cells, because IgE receptor present on the surface of basophills and mast cells Antigen act as allergence generate allergy Ex: asthma Type-I
Antibody-mediated hypersensitivity IgG & IgE Compliment protein play important role in type-II Compliment immediated destruction. ADCC (NKC) response because due to the receptor of IgE & complex protein present on the surface of antigen. Ex: auto immune hemolytic cell Erythroblastosis fetalis Type-II
Immune complex-mediated hypersensitivity. The reaction of antibody with antigen generates immune complexes. Large amounts of immune complexes can lead to tissue-damaging type III hypersensitivity reactions. Type-III
Delayed-type hypersensitivity When some subpopulations of activated TH cells encounter certain types antigens, they secrete cytokines that induce a localized inflammatory reaction. Generally the T cells activated during the sensitization phase are CD4+, primarily of the TH1 subtype. But in a few cases CD8+ cells have also been shown to induce a DTH response. Type-IV
