Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -It is capable of triggering severe immunologic reactions owing to its allergenic fraction. Venom components are presented to the T cells by antigen-presenting cells within the skin. These Th2 type T cells then release IL-4 and IL-13 which subsequently direct B cells to class switch to production of IgE.
Detailed explanation-2: -Your immune system produces antibodies that detect the allergen and cause inflammatory reactions and the release of chemicals including histamine. Allergic reactions to insect stings and bites range from mild local reactions at the site of the sting or bite to severe allergic reactions that are life threatening.
