Summary Introduction
Introduction:
Hypersensitivity or allergy occurs as a response to the antigen or allergen, exposed to our body. It gives an undesirable effect to our body by our immune system. It is a condition of over production of the immune response. It is of four types namely, anaphylactic, cytotoxic, immune complex and delayed type hypersensitivity.
Type 1 Hypersensitivity or Anaphylaxis
Type 2 Hypersensitivity or Cytotoxicity immunity
Type 3 Hypersensitivity or Immune complex immunity
Type 4 Hypersensitivity or Delayed type hypersensitivity.
