Detailed explanation-2: -Immediate hypersensitivity reactions are mediated by IgE, and T and B cells play important roles in the development of these antibodies.

Detailed explanation-3: -Type II hypersensitivity reaction refers to an antibody-mediated immune reaction in which antibodies (IgG or IgM) are directed against cellular or extracellular matrix antigens, resulting in cellular destruction, functional loss, or tissue damage.
