-reaction against another individual's tissues (transplant rejection, transfusion
reactions, fetus during pregnancy)

Type 3: Immune -Autoimmune disorder occurs when body's immune system attacks and destroys
Complex healthy body tissue by mistake (>80 types)
-Cause unkown
-gluten (wheat) allergy, SLE, RA, post infectious glomerulonephritis

4. Hypersensitivity -T-cell mediated
Type 4: Delayed -delayed hypersensitivity reaction (a day or more to develop)
(cell mediated) -not humoral (cell mediated)
-response involved interaction of T cells, monocytes, and macrophages
-overreaction of helper T cells and overproduction of cytokines damage tissues,
cause inflammation, and cell death
-Stevens Johnson syndrome, contact dermatitis, poison ivy, metal/jewelry -> re-
