Hypersensitivity Type 1

QuestionAnswer
What is hypersensitivity? any immune response against a foreign antigen that is exaggerated beyond the norm
List four types of hypersensitivity Type I,II, III, IV
which type is immediate? type I
which type is cytotoxic? type II
Which type is immune-complex mediated? type III
which type is delayed or cell-mediated? type IV
Is type I hypersensitivity localized or systemic reactions that result from the release of inflammatory molecules in response to an antigen? both
Which type of hypersensitivity: develop within seconds or minutes following exposure to an antigen, commonly called allergies and the antigens that stimulate them are called allergens typeI
what are two stages of type I hypersensitivity? sensitization, degranulation
Among cells involved in Type I hypersensitivity, what cells are found in sites close to body surfaces such as the skin and the walls of the intestine, whose cytoplasm is filled with large granules which contain a mixture of potent inflammatory chemicals? mast cells
Type I hypersensitivity is commonly called _______ and involves ________ antibodies. allergies, IgE
Antigens that stimulate Type I hypersensitivity are called ______. allergens
In sensitization phase, APC _________ allergen and presents to _______ cell, the cell secretes ____ to stimulate ____ cell which secretes IgE, then IgE binds to ____ cells, ______, and _______. phagocytizes, TH2, IL4, B, Mast cell, Basophil, Eosinophil
What do mast cells contain in its cytoplasm? large granules containing a mixture of potent inflammatory chemicals
Among cells involved in Type I hypersensitivity, what cells are leukocytes which can be stained with basophilic dyes and contain granules filled with inflammatory chemicals? Basophils
Among cells involved in Type I hypersensitivity, what cells are leukocytes that can be stained with the dye eosin and contain inflammatory mediators and leukotriens that contribute to the seerity of a hypersensitivity resonse? Eosinophils
Among cells involved in Type I hypersensitivity, what cells are mainly involved? mast cells
Among cells involved in Type I hypersensitivity, what cells take care of worms? eosinophils
What phenomena stimulates the release of eosinophis to migrate to the site where is occuring? mast cell degranulation
Which inflammatory molecule is this: released during degranulation and causes smooth muscle contraction, increased vascular permeability, and irritation? histamine
which inflammatory molecules is this: relased during degranulation, cause smooth muscle contraction, inflammation and irritation? Kinins
Which inflammatory molecules is this: released during degranulation, damage tissues and activate complement? proteases
What inflammatory molecules released from mast cells during degranulation? histamin, kinins, proteases
Which inflammatory molecule is this: synthesized in response to inflammation, cause slow, prolonged smooth muscle contraction? leukotrienes
Which inflammatory molecule is this: synthesized in response to inflammation, some contract smooth muscle, others relax it? prostaglandins
Which inflammatory molecules are synthesized in response to inflammation? leukotrienes, prostaglandins
In type I hypersensitivity, what causes systemic allergic reactions? degranulation of many mast cells at once
why degranulation of many mast cells at once cause systemic allergic reactions? it causes the release of large amounts of histamine and inflammatory mediators.
Degranulation of many mast cells at once cuases ______ ________ or _________ which results suffocation. acute anaphylaxis, anaphylactic shock
When suffocation from anaphylactic shock happens, bronchial smooth muscle _____ violently, leakage of fluid from blood vessels causes ______ of the larynx and other tissues, the smooth muscle of the intestines and bladder ________. contracts, swelling, contracts
To treat type I hypersensitivity, drugs that ________ the inflammatory mediators released by degranulation are administered. counteract
What drug can counteract and neutralize histamine? antihistamine
How can asthma be treated? with an inhalant containing corticosteroid and a bronchodilator
What does quickly neutralize many of the mechanisms of anaphylaxis? epinephrine
Epinephrine _____ smooth muscle and reduce _______ ________. relax, vascular permeability
Which drug can be used for emergency treatment of severe asthma and anaphylactic shock? epinephrine
When worm antigens are detected by mast cell, mast cell secretes ______ and ________, and it makes _________ migrate where the worm is to attack. histamine, eoshinophil chemostatic factor, eosinophils
