Study Notes
Hypersensitivity Types
- Type I hypersensitivity involves basophils and mast cells sensitized by IgE.
- Type IV hypersensitivity is characterized by delayed reactions, and the main immune response involved is cellular immunity.
Immune Response
- Type I, II, and III hypersensitivity involve antibody-mediated immunity as the main immune response.
- Type IV hypersensitivity, on the other hand, involves cell-mediated immunity as the main immune response.
Antigen-Antibody Complexes
- Type III hypersensitivity involves the formation of antigen-antibody complexes.
