2. Autoimmune disease
3. Immunodeficiency
1. Hypersensitivity
Systemic anaphylaxis
• Is a shock-like and often fatal state whose onset
occurs within minutes of a type I HSR.
RAST
Type II (Cytotoxic) Reactions
• Mediated, primarily, by antibodies of IgM or IgG
class and complement
1. Transfusion Reactions
2. Hemolytic Disease of the Newborn
3. Drug-Induced Hemolytic Anemia
4. Autoimmune diseases
stimulate
histamine release degranulation of basophiles and mast cells
2. Neutrophils are attracted to the site by immune
complexes and release lysosomal enzymes
which damage tissues and intensify the
inflammatory Process .
c- Persistent infections
1- Arthus Reaction
2- Serum Sickness
3- Post-streptococcal glomerulonephritis
4- Hypersensitive pneumonitis (farmer lung)
Type IV
Cell Mediated
Delayed Type Hypersensitivity
Type IV (Cell-Mediated) Reactions
– Langerhans cells
– Macrophages
• Granulomatous lesions
• Contact Dermatitis
• Insulin dependant diabetes mellitus
• Auto immune diseases and graft rejection
2.Autoimmune Disease
• This could be caused by a sudden inability to
distinguish between self and non self
• or by a misinterpretation of a self-component as
dangerous.
• Antibiotics
• Intravenous immunoglobulins
• Stem cell transplant in XLP
2. Primary defects of Cellular immunity
• Dysmorphogenesis of 3rd
and 4th pharyngeal pouches

Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome
HIV
• 1981 - First AIDS cases in USA
– 5 PCP and 26 KS cases among homosexuals
– Subsequently it was detected also among IDU and
hemophilics
• 1983 - HIV was isolated from a pt with PGL
and demonstrated as the cause of AIDS in
1984
• 1985 - ELISA was developed and used for
detection of the epidemiologic scope

Epidemiology
Regulatory proteins
- tat – transactivator
transcrition
- rev – viral proteins
-Nef – down regulator
Structural proteins
- gp160 – envelop
-P24 , p17 – inner and outer
viral capsid
- p66, p51, p31 – enzymatic
-P6 and p7 – nucleic acid 77
Overview of HIV life cycle

ID by HIV contd..
• Direct effect of viral component on Th cells
• Functional disturbance of CD4 (low Ag detection)
• Low IL-2 expression
• Alter Th homing (increase migration to LN)
• Apoptosis of Th via caspase-1 (not caspase-3)
• Cytopathic effect by CD8 cells
• Low production of immunomodulatory by Th
• Disturbing proper CD8 maturation
• Increase AAMQs, B cell hyperactivation
• NK= impaired cytolytic
Immune reconstitution inflammatory
syndrome
Development of clinical manifestations of a
previously sub-clinical opportunistic infection
and/or paradoxical worsening of active infection
despite appropriate treatment.
It occurs in 11-45% of HIV TB coinfected and on tx.
Occurs usually within 3 months of starting ART
Reflects a restored, protective, pathogen-specific
immune response,
Not ART treatment failure
