Hypersensitivities can be described as immediate, subacute, or delayed. How do these sensitivities differ? What evidence did the doctors use to determine that the peanut allergy was an immediate hypersensitivity?

What does HLA stand for? What is an HLA phenotype?

How does HLA relate to MHC in immune physiology?

Briefly describe the role of B cells and T-helper lymphocytes in immune physiology.

In immediate hypersensitivity, the initial exposure to an allergen usually does not produce any symptoms. The symptoms, such as those involved in anaphylaxis, usually appear in the second exposure. What events are ocurring during this initial exposure that sensitizes a person to an allergen. In your description include the role of B cells, T cells, IgE, mast cells, basophils and the allergen.
