NURS232 UNIT I-VI
Altered Immune ResponsesHypersensitivity Disorders
Question | Answer |
---|---|
hypersensitivity disorder is one in which the | immune system overreacts or fails to maintain self-tolerance |
injury to normal cells occur due to | release of vasoactive substances, lysis/phagocytosis of cells, activation of inflammatory and cytolytic components of the complement system and/or release of proteolytic enzymes, cytokines and other mediators of tissue injury and inflammation |
the classifications of hypersensitivity reactions are | immediate and delayed |
the immediate hypersensitivity reaction is also known as | humoral immunity |
immediate/humoral immunity includes type | I, II, & III |
what antibodies are involved in a type I reaction | IgE |
what antibodies are involved in both type II and type III reactions | IgG & IgM |
type I reactions are known as | IgE mediated |
type II reactions are known as | cytotoxic |
type III reactions are | Immune complex |
type IV are | delayed hypersensitivity reactions |
type I includes what antigens? | exogenous pollen, food, drugs, dust |
type II includes what antigens? | those on the cell surface of RBCs; basement membranes |
type III includes what antigens? | extracellular fungal, viral, bacterial |
type IV includes what antigens | intracellular or extracellular |
what antibody is involved in a type I reaction? | IgE |
what antibody is involved in a type II reaction? | IgM & IgG |
what antibody is involved in a type III reaction | IgM & IgG |
what antibody is involved in a delayed hypersensitivity reaction? | none |
what antibody is involved in a type IV reaction? | none |
which type of hypersensitivity reaction is allergic rhinitis & asthma? | type I: IgE mediated |
which type of reaction is associated with transfusions | type II: Cytotoxic |
in which types of reactions is complement involved? | type II & type III |
complement lysis happens in which type of reaction | type II: cytotoxic & type III: immune complex |
for what type of reaction would a wheal & flare skin test be used to detect? | type I: IgE mediated |
fungi & viruses are responsible for setting off what type of reaction? | type III: immune complex reactions |
what reaction type does not include involvement of an antibody? | type IV: delayed hypersensitivity |
