Type II

• Tissue/cell damage due to direct action of antibody or complement

• Antibody dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC)• Examples

– Transfusion reactions (Rhesus incompatibility)– Organ transplants– Autoimmune type II reactions - ‘cold’ agglutinins– Type II drug reactions - ‘penicillin’

Figure 15.1Schematic illustration of three different mechanisms of antibody-mediated injury in type II hypersensitivity. (A) Complement-dependent reactions that lead to lysis of cells or render them susceptible to phagocytosis. (B) Antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC). IgG-coated target cells are killed by cells that bear Fc receptors for IgG (e.g., NK cells, macrophages). (C) Antireceptor antibodies disturb the normal function of receptors. In this example, acetylcholine receptor antibodies impair neuromuscular transmission in myasthenia gravis.

ABO blood grouping system

Page 5: Hypersensitivity reactions: Antibody-mediated (type II) cytotoxic reactions

Transfusion reaction caused by ABO blood types

• IgM activates complement --- RBC lysis, and later phagocytosis by anti-RBC IgG

• Kidney and other tissue damage

• Toxicity due to released heme complex

Page 6: Hypersensitivity reactions: Antibody-mediated (type II) cytotoxic reactions

Rhesus imcompatibility

• Rabbit antisera to rhesus RBC react with 85% of human population– Positive = Rh+– Negative = Rh-

• Hemolytic disease of newborn (HDN) (erythroblastosis fetalis) in Rh- mothers

Contribution of immune complex to the pathogenesis of diseases other than serum

sickness

• Autoimmune diseases– Systemic lupus erythematosus– Rheumatoid arthritis– Goodpasture’s syndrome

• Drug reactions– Allergies to penicillin and sulfonamides

• Infectious diseases– Poststreptococcal glomerulonephritis– Meningitis– Hepatitis– Malaria– Trypanosomiasis
