Hypersensitivity refers to undesirable immune reactions, including allergies and autoimmunity. There are four main types of hypersensitivity reactions. Type I reactions are immediate and involve IgE antibodies binding to mast cells. Type II reactions are cytotoxic and involve IgG or IgM binding to cells and tissues. Type III reactions involve immune complex deposition in tissues, activating complement and attracting neutrophils. Type IV reactions are delayed, involving sensitized T cells responding 24+ hours after antigen exposure.
