-inflammation due to mast cell degranultion

-anaphylactic, asthma, hay fever

treatment: epinephrine

Hypersensitivity: Type 2 - -Cytotoxic reaction: tissue specific

-binds to the antigen ON THE CELL SURFACE

-macrophages are primary effectors cells involved

cause tissue damage or alter function

Hypersensitivity 2 - -Graves Disease (hyperthyroidism) -alters function not destroy

-blood transfusions reaction- transfused erythrocytes are destroyed by agglutination or lysis

-drug allergies

-hemolytic anemia

Hypersensitivity: type 3 - -Not organ specific

-antibody binds to soluble antigen OUTSIDE THE CELL SURFACE that was released into the blood
or bodily fluids, and the complex is then deposited in the tissues
