allergies
Inflammatory response to an antigen that is unwanted
Immune mediated hypersensitivity

Type 2 hypersensitivity
Antibody-antigen complexes activate immune response
Type 3 hypersensitivity
T cells and macrophages directly cause inflammation
Type 4 hypersensitivity
IgE is pre bound to
Mast cells
mast cells can release
Chitinase (enzyme)
The genetic predisposition to allergic disease, an increased production of IgE, become sensitized to common environmental allergens
Atopy
Apoquel and Zenrelia blocks the action
IL-4, 5, 13
Cytopoint blocks action of
IL-31
