Hypersensitivity Uncovered: The Immune System's Overreaction Causing Tissue Damage | Health Live

Hypersensitivity is an immunological dysfunction characterized by an exaggerated or inappropriate response of the immune system. This heightened reaction is typically directed against harmless antigens, leading to unintended tissue damage. There are four main types of hypersensitivity reactions: Type I, which involves immediate allergic reactions; Type II, which includes cytotoxic reactions; Type III, characterized by immune complex-mediated damage; and Type IV, which is delayed-type hypersensitivity. Symptoms may range from mild allergic responses, such as hives and itching, to severe conditions like anaphylaxis or autoimmune diseases. Understanding the mechanisms behind hypersensitivity is crucial for developing effective treatments and management strategies. Early identification and intervention can help mitigate the adverse effects associated with these immune responses and improve the quality of life for affected individuals.
