Detailed explanation-1: -Type I hypersensitivities include atopic diseases, which are an exaggerated IgE mediated immune responses (i.e., allergic: asthma, rhinitis, conjunctivitis, and dermatitis), and allergic diseases, which are immune responses to foreign allergens (i.e., anaphylaxis, urticaria, angioedema, food, and drug allergies).
Detailed explanation-2: -Type 2 immune responses are induced by parasitic helminths and are associated with atopic diseases, such as allergy and asthma.
Detailed explanation-3: -Much of the focus in asthma research in the past has been on adaptive, antigen-dependent immune responses. Recent work suggests that the innate, non–antigen-dependent immune system plays a critical role in asthma pathogenesis.
