Hypersensitivity Reactions, Allergies immunology

Hypersensitivity – responding inappropriately to an antigen Inflammatory response can have deleterious effects Tissue injury Disease death

In a given individual, such reactions typically occur after the second contact with a specific antigen (allergen). The first contact is a necessary preliminary event that induces sensitization to that allergen.

Hypersensitivity Reactions May develop in course of humoral OR cell-mediated response Immediate hypersensitivity Anaphylactic Antibody-antigen complexes Manifests in minutes Delayed-type hypersensitivity May occur in days

Type I – IgE-Mediated Hypersensitivity Induced by antigens referred to as allergens Induces humoral response but induces high secretion of IgE Fc portion of IgE binds with Fc receptors on mast cells and basophils Degranulation occurs

Type 1 Common components Allergens IgE Mast cells and basophils Atopy – hereditary predisposition to development of immediate hypersensitivity reactions to common antigens Allows nonparasitic antigens to induce IgE response IgE Normally lowest of all antibody classes in serum Half-life is 2-3 days but once bound to mast cells or basophils, can last for weeks Mast cells and basophils IgE binding receptors High affinityFcεRI(mast cell,basophil,eosinophil,momncytes,platelets) Low affinityFcεRII CD23(activated B-cell & various cell type) Soluble & membrane forme Atopic individuals have higher amount of soluble IgE receptor that has been shown to increase IgE production by B cells

Pharmacologic agents that mediate Type I Primary mediators Made before and stored in granules Histamine, proteases, eosinophil chemotactic factor, heparin Secondary mediators Synthesized after Platelet-activating factor, leukotrienes, prostaglandins, bradykinins, some cytokines and chemokines

Type I Hypersensitivities Are Characterized by Both Early and Late Responses The early response occurs within minutes of allergen exposure and result from mast cell degrnulation of histamine, leukotrienes, and prostaglandins. hours after the immediate phase ,mediators released during the course of the reaction induce localized inflammation, called the late-phase reaction multiple granulocyte subsets can cooperate in the induction of chronic allergic inflammation

Type 1 can be systemic or localized Systemic anaphylaxis Quick, can be fatal Antigens like :venom from bee, wasp, hornet, and ant stings; drugs such as penicillin, insulin, and antitoxins; and foods such as seafood and nuts. Respiration labored, blood pressure drops, bronchiole constriction, edema, shock Epinephrine treats, relaxes smooth muscle and increases cardiac output (prevents vascular collapse)

Type 1 can be systemic or localized Localized Hypersensitivity Reactions (Atopy) is limited to a specific target tissue or organ Allergic Rhinitis Most common, “hay fever” Tearing, runny nose, sneezing, and coughing Asthma Triggered like hay fever but doesn’t happen in nasal cavity, happens in lower respiratory tract Food allergies(cow’s milk, eggs, peanuts, tree nuts, soy, wheat, fish, and shellfish) food allergens are water-soluble glycoproteins stable to heat, acid, digest slowly. cross-linking of IgE on mast cells along gastrointestinal tract induce localized smooth muscle contraction and vasodilation and thus such symptoms as vomiting or diarrhea Atopic dermatitis Allergic eczema develops erythematous (red) skin Eruptions skin lesions in atopic dermatitis contain T H 2 cells and an increased number of eosinophils (unlike DTH,TH1)

Asthma Inflammatory disease Induce expression of adhesion molecules on endothelial cells for eosinophils and neutrophils Cause significant injury because of toxic enzymes, cytokines Notice sloughing of the pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelial cells lining the bronchiole

Clinical Methods to detect Type 1 Skin testing small amounts of potential allergens are introduced at specific skin, Thirty minutes later, the sites are reexamined, redness and swelling Checking serum level of IgE using ELISA or Western blot technologies

Control of Type 1 Avoiding contact Immunotherapy Drug therapies Subcutaneous injections of allergens(Hyposensitization) Causes shift to IgG production instead of IgE Monoclonal anti-human IgE Drug therapies

Type II – Antibody-Mediated Cytotoxic Hypersensitivity involves the binding of IgG antibodies to:[cell surface antigens or extracellular matrix molecules]. Antibody bound to a cell-surface antigen can induce death of the antibody-bound cell by three distinct mechanisms.

Type II – Antibody-Mediated Cytotoxic Hypersensitivity First, certain immunoglobulin subclasses can activate the complement system, creating pores in the membrane of a foreign cell. Secondly, antibodies can mediate cell destruction by antibody dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC), in which cytotoxic cells bearing Fc receptors bind to the Fc region of antibodies on target cells and promote killing of the cells. Finally, antibody bound to a foreign cell also can serve as an opsonin, enabling phagocytic cells with Fc or C3b receptors to bind and phagocytose the antibody-coated cell

Type II – Antibody-Mediated Cytotoxic Hypersensitivity Transfusion Reactions antigens that are associated with the blood types are identified as A, B, and H, Individuals have antibodies to blood types not their own and adults possess IgM antibodies to those Ag. Antibodies directed toward ABH antigens are termed isohemagglutinins Antibody attaches to RBC and initiates complement system to lyse RBC After lysis: Hemoglobin detected in plasma, starts to filter through kidneys and found in urine (hemoglobinuria) Hemoglobin converted to bilirubin – toxic at high levels Fever, chills, blood clotting

Type II – Antibody-Mediated Cytotoxic Hypersensitivity Hemolytic disease of newborn Rh+ fetus, Rh- mother IgG antibodies cross placenta(memory) Some of these antibodies may be anti-Rh antibodies Can have severe consequences Antibodies against ABO blood groups produce less consequences, can be easily treated Rhogam shot Given to mother Anti-Rh antibodies bind to fetal cells that might have entered mother’s system during birthing process, facilitates clearing before there is a B cell response

Type II – Antibody-Mediated Cytotoxic Hypersensitivity Hemolytic Anemia Can Be Drug Induced Certain antibiotics (e.g., penicillin, cephalosporins, and streptomycin), as well as other well-known drugs adsorb nonspecifically to proteins on red blood cell membranes, forming a drug protein complex induce formation of antibodies inducing complement-mediated lysis progressive anemia

Type III – Immune complex-mediated hypersensitivity Complexing of antigen plus antibody facilitates phagocytosis and clearing of antigen Large amounts of these complexes can lead to tissue damage & Type III hypersensitivity

Conditions associated with the initiation of a type III response include : the presence of antigens capable of generating particularly extensive antigen-antibody lattices, a high intrinsic affinity of antigens for particular tissues the presence of highly charged antigens (which can affect immune complex engulfment) and a compromised phagocytic system.

Symptoms induced such as fever, urticaria (rashes), joint pain, lymph node enlargement, and protein in the urine. The resulting inflammatory lesion is referred to as vasculitis if it occurs in a blood vessel, glomerulonephritis if it occurs in the kidney, or arthritis if it occurs in the joints.

Type III can be localized Injection of antigen intradermally or subcu into animal that has high level of antibody for that antigen Arthus reaction Bug bites

Local (Arthus reaction) and typically elicited in the skin when a low dose of antigen is injected and immune complexes form locally. IgG antibodies are involved, and the resulting activation of complement leads to activation of mast cells and neutrophils, mediator release, and enhanced vascular permeability. This typically occurs in about 12 hours.

Type III can be generalized Serum sickness After receiving antiserum (serum from another animal that may contain antitoxins for treatment) Use of monoclonal antibodies for use of cancer treatment Patient developed antibody against mouse monoclonal antibody Autoimmune diseases Lupus, Rheumatoid arthritis Drug reactions Penicillin, sulfonamides Infectious disease

Systemic immune complex acute poststreptococcal glomerulonephritis is a well known immune complex disease. Its onset occurs several weeks after a group A β-hemolytic streptococcal infection, particularly of the skin, and often occurs with infection due to nephritogenic types of streptococci. {Lumpy deposits of immunoglobulin and complement component C3 are seen along glomerular basement membranes stained by immunofluorescence, suggesting antigen–antibody complexes. It is likely that streptococcal antigen– antibody complexes are filtered out by glomeruli, fix complement, and attract neutrophils. This series of events results in an inflammatory process that damages the kidney.}

Type IV – Delayed-type Hypersensitivity Some subpopulations of TH cells encounter antigen, secrete cytokines and induce localized inflammatory response Most cases are not detrimental(harmful)

Type IV Sensitization phase and Effector phase of DTH

Prolonged DTH can lead to formation of granuloma Tuberculosis test is done this way

Type IV – contact dermatitis
