Inflammation is part of the bodys defense mechanism and plays a role in the healing process.
When the body detects an intruder, it launches a biological response to try to remove it.
The attacker could be a foreign body, such as a thorn, an irritant, or a pathogen. Pathogens include bacteria, viruses, and other organisms, which cause infections.
There are four types of inflammation ...
Hypersensitivity is an immunological state where the immune system overreacts to foreign antigens. There are four main types of hypersensitivity: Type I is an immediate allergic reaction mediated by IgE antibodies, Type II involves antibody-mediated cytotoxic reactions, Type III occurs when immune complexes are deposited in tissues, and Type IV is a delayed cell-mediated response. Each type has different pathogenic mechanisms and causes distinct pathological lesions and clinical symptoms.
The document summarizes the four main types of hypersensitivity reactions:
1. Type I reactions are immediate and mediated by IgE antibodies, causing conditions like allergic asthma from mast cell degranulation.
2. Type II reactions involve antibodies binding to antigens on a patient's own cells, activating complement and causing cell lysis in diseases like autoimmune hemolytic anemia.
3. Type III reactions occur when immune complexes deposit in tissues, activating complement and causing inflammation in diseases like serum sickness and lupus nephritis.
4. Type IV reactions are delayed cell-mediated responses, seen in contact dermatitis and tuberculin reactions, involving T cells and macrophages.
Type I, II, III, and IV hypersensitivity reactions are immune responses that are harmful or inappropriate. Type I is an immediate, antibody-mediated reaction like an allergy. Type II involves antibody-mediated cell destruction. Type III is immune complex-mediated responses causing issues like serum sickness. Type IV is a delayed, cell-mediated response like a tuberculin skin test or contact dermatitis. These hypersensitivities can cause issues in various tissues and organs.
This document summarizes the four main types of hypersensitivity reactions:
Type I are immediate and anaphylactic reactions mediated by IgE antibodies. Type II involve antibody-dependent cell cytotoxicity. Type III occur when immune complexes are deposited in tissues. Type IV are cell-mediated reactions like contact dermatitis and tuberculosis that peak in 2-3 days. Each type involves different mechanisms and antibodies that can cause tissue damage in exaggerated immune responses.
This document discusses the four main types of hypersensitivity reactions:
Type I is an immediate reaction mediated by IgE antibodies. It causes conditions like allergic asthma.
Type II involves antibodies binding to antigens on a person's own cells, activating complement and causing cell lysis. It includes conditions like autoimmune hemolytic anemia.
Type III occurs when immune complexes are deposited in tissues, activating complement and causing inflammation and tissue damage. Examples are serum sickness and lupus nephritis.
Type IV is a delayed reaction mediated by T cells and monocytes/macrophages. It causes conditions like contact dermatitis and tuberculosis.
Type I hypersensitivity is an immediate allergic reaction mediated by IgE antibodies. It can affect multiple organs and cause symptoms within minutes. Type II involves antibody-mediated attack on self cells, causing hemolytic anemia or thrombocytopenia over hours. Type III occurs when immune complexes deposit in tissues like kidneys and joints, activating complement and causing inflammation over days. Type IV is cell-mediated, where T cells trigger inflammation and granulomas over days to weeks, as seen in tuberculosis.
Hypersensitivity reactions occur when the immune system responds inappropriately or excessively to antigens. There are four main types of hypersensitivity reactions:
Type I reactions are immediate and mediated by IgE antibodies. Type II involve IgG or IgM antibodies damaging cell surfaces. Type III reactions involve immune complex formation and deposition in tissues. Type IV reactions are delayed cell-mediated responses that can cause conditions like tuberculosis and contact dermatitis. Understanding the mechanisms and clinical manifestations of these hypersensitivity reactions is important.
Hypersensitivity (also called hypersensitivity reaction or intolerance) refers to undesirable reactions produced by the normal immune system, including allergies and autoimmunity.

This document discusses the four types of hypersensitivity reactions:
Type I is immediate hypersensitivity mediated by IgE antibodies. Type II involves IgG or IgM antibody-mediated cytotoxic reactions. Type III is immune complex-mediated hypersensitivity where antigen-antibody complexes activate the complement system. Type IV is cell-mediated delayed hypersensitivity that involves T lymphocytes and cytokine release. Examples of diseases involving these mechanisms include allergic rhinitis, hemolytic disease of the newborn, serum sickness, and tuberculosis.
This document describes the four types of hypersensitivity reactions classified by Coombs and Gell. Type I reactions are immediate and mediated by IgE antibodies. Type II reactions are antibody-dependent and involve antibodies binding to antigens on a person's own cells. Type III reactions involve immune complex formation and deposition in tissues. Type IV reactions are cell-mediated and delayed, involving T lymphocytes and occurring 2-3 days after antigen exposure. Examples of each type are provided along with descriptions of mechanisms and diagnostic approaches.

reaction
Introduction
4. SLIDESMANIA.COM
SLIDESMANIA.COM
Depending upon the rapidity, duration and
type of the immune response, these 4 types
of hypersensitivity reactions are grouped
into :
i) Immediate type
ii) Delayed type
5. SLIDESMANIA.COM
SLIDESMANIA.COM
Type I hypersensitivities include atopic diseases, which are
an exaggerated IgE mediated immune responses (i.e.,
allergic: asthma), and allergic diseases, which are immune
responses to foreign allergens (i.e., anaphylaxis).
The allergens that result in a type I hypersensitivity may be
harmless (i.e., pollen, mites, etc.) or more hazardous such
as insect venoms.
Type I Anaphylactic Reaction
8. SLIDESMANIA.COM
SLIDESMANIA.COM
Type I hypersensitivity occurs as a result of exposure
to an antigen. The response to the antigen occurs
in two stages: the sensitization and the effect stage.
In the sensitization stage, the host experiences an
asymptomatic contact with the antigen.
In the "effect" period, the pre-sensitized host is re-
introduced to the antigen, which then leads to a type I
anaphylactic or atopic immune response .
Etiology & Pathogenesis
10. SLIDESMANIA.COM
SLIDESMANIA.COM
Range from mild, local (e.g.
urticaria. rhinorrhea, itching) to
life-threatening anaphylactic
reaction (e.g. cardiac
arrhythmia, shock,
bronchospasm, laryngeal
obstruction) .
SIGNS & SYMPTOMS
11. Examples
Common Type I Hypersensitivity Reactions :-
Ingested allergens
Foods, dander, bee stings, mold, drugs , pollen .
Other allergens :-
Latex, lotions, soaps, penicillin
Atopic eczema
Allergic urticarial
Allergic rhinitis
Allergic asthma
Anaphylaxis
Eosinophilic esophagitis
12. Medications :-
Symptom-based
Antihistamines (e.g. H1 blockers),
corticosteroids , epinephrine .
Other interventions
Hypo /de-sensitization
Escalating doses of allergen
subcutaneously injected over course
of years.
Treatment
13. SLIDESMANIA.COM
SLIDESMANIA.COM
Type II hypersensitivity reaction refers to an antibody-
mediated immune reaction in which antibodies (IgG or IgM)
are directed against cellular or extracellular matrix antigens
with the resultant cellular destruction, functional loss, or
damage to tissues.
TYPE II Cytotoxic Reaction
16. SLIDESMANIA.COM
SLIDESMANIA.COM
The type II hypersensitivity immune reaction develops
in response to modifications of cell surface or matrix-
associated antigens generating antigenic epitopes that are
regarded as foreign by the immune system.
The most common causes include medications like
penicillin, thiazides, cephalosporin , and methyldopa.
The drug molecule either binds to the surface of cells
resulting in a neoantigen or alter the epitopes of the
existing self-antigen on the cell surface.
Etiology
17. SLIDESMANIA.COM
SLIDESMANIA.COM
In type II hypersensitivity, following exposure to the
inciting agent, autoantibodies are produced (IgG & IgM)
to the host cells (sensitization phase), promoting a series of
pathogenic outcomes (effector phase).
The pathophysiology of type II hypersensitivity
reactions can be broadly classified into three types :-
1. Cell depletion or destruction without inflammation.
2. Inflammation mediated by complement or Fc receptor.
3. Cellular dysfunction by antibodies.
Pathology

Common Type II hypersensitivity reactions
22. SLIDESMANIA.COM
SLIDESMANIA.COM
An abnormal immune response is mediated by the formation
of antigen-antibody aggregates called "immune complexes.
They can precipitate in various tissues and trigger the
classical complement pathway.
Complement activation leads to the recruitment
of inflammatory cells that release lysosomal enzymes and free
radicals at the site of immune complexes, causing tissue
damage.
Type III Hypersensitivity Reaction
Immune complex-mediated reaction
23. LogoType
The principle feature that
separates type III reactions from
other hypersensitivity reactions
is that in type III the antigen-
antibody complexes are pre-
formed in the circulation before
their deposition in tissues .
27. SLIDESMANIA.COM
SLIDESMANIA.COM
If triggered by single exposure to antigen , resolves after
catabolism of immune complexes acute serum sickness .
If repeated/prolonged exposure chronic serum sickness .
Common sites of immune complex :-
accumulation
Blood vessel walls vasculitis
Kidneys glomerulonephritis
Joints arthritis
30. Treatment
Medications
Systemic lupus erythematosus
(SLE) :-
Administration of anti- inflammatory,
corticosteroids, cytotoxic medications
to decrease inflammatory activity.
31. Type IV hypersensitivity reaction
Type IV hypersensitivity typically occurs at least 48 hours after
exposure to an antigen. It involves activated T cells, which release
cytokines and chemokines, and macrophages and cytotoxic CD8+ T
cells that are attracted by these moieties.
Type IV reactions are further subdivided into type IVa, IVb, IVc, and
IVd based on the type of T cell (CD4 T-helper type 1 and type 2
cells) involved and the cytokines/chemokines produced.
Delayed hypersensitivity plays a crucial role in our body's ability to
fight various intracellular pathogens such as mycobacteria and
fungi. They also play a principal role in tumor immunity and
transplant rejection.
34. Etiology & Pathology
Type IV hypersensitivity reaction are, to some extent, normal
physiological events that aid in the fight against infections, and
disruption in this system can predispose to a variety of opportunistic
illnesses.
Exposure to poison ivy resulting in contact dermatitis is a
classic example.
Several drugs (antibiotics, anticonvulsants) can
trigger type IV hypersensitivity reactions .Certain viral infections,
when exposed to certain drugs, can trigger a reaction, such as
cytomegalovirus with antibiotics, Epstein Barr virus with
amoxicillin.
36. There are three subtypes of Type IV
hypersensitivity:
Contact Dermatitis
Tuberculin-type Hypersensitivity
Granulomatous-type Hypersensitivity
37. SLIDESMANIA.COM
SLIDESMANIA.COM
Contact hypersensitivity dermatitis
occurs when haptens, which are considered as exogenous
antigens, penetrate the skin with proximity to epidermal and
dermal cells resulting in an inflammatory reaction.
Additionally, keratinocytes help in recruiting immune cells by secreting
other groups of cytokines .
This results in inflammation of the skin with
swelling, itchiness, and pain.
38. Tuberculin-type hypersensitivity
can be seen after intradermal
injection of purified protein
derivative (PPD) called tuberculin
(product of tuberculosis bacillus),
that produces measurable local
induration and swelling, typically
measured in millimeters between
48 to 72 hours after the injection.
This local reaction indicates the
presence of type four
hypersensitivity. The tuberculin
test is a validated method to
diagnose tuberculosis infection,
even if latent.
39. SLIDESMANIA.COM
SLIDESMANIA.COM
Can occur in response to a variety of antigens.
Macrophages that engulfed antigens are unable to destroy
them and recruit several more macrophages to the site of these
antigens. A collection of macrophages filled with intracellular
antigens is termed granuloma. One instance is sarcoidosis
disease, which is a systemic granulomatous disease of unknown
cause, with a wide variety of clinical presentations.
Granulomatous-type Hypersensitivity
