Hypersensitivity reactions types I, II, and III are collectively known as _______________.
Immediate Hypersensitivity
The Ig with the longest half-life and highest serum concentration.
Immunoglobulin G
An acute, potentially fatal, and systemic manifestation of immediate hypersensitivity reaction.
Anaphylaxis
Ig that is only present in the intravascular compartment, not in body fluids or secretions.
Immunoglobulin M
Classified hypersensitivity reactions into four categories based on the time elapsed from exposure of antigen to the reaction and the arm of immune system involved.
Gell and Coombs
Antibodies that are blocked in chronic desensitization
IgA and IgG
Antibodies derived from a single clone of plasma cell.
Monoclonal antibody
Enumerate the four common manifestations of Atopy
Asthma, Rhinitis, Urticaria, and Atopic dermatitis
It is prepared by recombination of 34% mouse proteins and 66% human proteins.
Chimeric Monoclonal Antibody
The administration of small amounts of antigen to which the person is sensitive, at an interval of 15 minutes.
Acute desensitization
What are the mediators of Immediate and Delayed Hypersensitivity?
Immediate - Antibodies
Delayed - T cells
Second most abundant Ig class that is found in bodily secretions
Mechanism of action of Bevacizumab and Abciximab
Inhibit angiogenesis
Immunoglobulin E
What does ADCC stands for?
Antibody-dependent-cell-mediated cytotoxicity
The tuberculin skin test is carried out to determine whether an individual has been previously exposed to what organism?
MYCOBACTERIUM TUBERCULOSIS
Adalimumab / Infliximab
IgE is elevated in _____________ infections
Helminthic
Produced by patients suffering from Multiple myeloma
Bence Jones Proteins
The reaction time of contact hypersensitivity
48-72 hours
A harmful immune response in which tissue damage is induced by exaggerated or inappropriate immune responses in a sensitized individual on re-exposure to the same antigen.
Hypersensitivity
Immunoglobulin G
Serum sickness is a manifestation of what Type of Hypersensitivity reaction?
Type III
Antibody found as membrane Ig on the surface of B cells and acts as a B cell receptor along with IgM.
Immunoglobulin D
Delayed Hypersensitivity is ______-mediated.
Cell
