0 Types of Immune Hypersensitivity Reactions
0 Properties of Inhaled Allergens
0 Penetration of epithelial Barriers by Allergens
0 Early IL-4 response promotes Th2 development that drives B cell class switching to IgE
0 Signaling through Stat6 is necessary for Th2 responses. Th2 cells support IgE responses.
0 Antigen binding to IgE on mast cells leads to amplification of IgE production
0 Mast cell activation affects many tissues
0 Molecules released upon activation of mast cells
0 Molecules released upon activation of mast cells
0 Toxic granule proteins and inflammatory substances released upon activation of eosinophils
0 Toxic granule proteins and inflammatory substances released upon activation of eosinophils
0 Acute vs. late phase inflammatory responses
0 TH2 mediated chronic inflammation in Asthma
0 Immune Complex mediated local inflammation such as in Arthus Reaction
0 Serum Sickness: an Immune complex disease
0 Type IV Hypersensitivity Reactions
0 Stages of a Type IV Hypersensitivity Reaction
0 Th1 derived cytokines and chemokines direct Type IV reactions
0 Allergic Contact Dermatitis: A type IV reaction
0 Blistering skin lesions on hand of patient with poison ivy contact dermatitis (a type IV reaction)
0 Granulomatous inflammation is a consequence of chronic Type IV reactions
