Allergies
In this video I jump into allergies. I discuss what is happening during an allergic response. We learn about how allergies are an anti-parasitic response gone awry. I touch on the roles of B cells, Basophils and Mast cells in the allergic response. And I also discuss how an allergic response can be life threatening including swelling of the airways and cardiovascular shock.
Learning objectives
Describe the cells and processes of an allergic response
Understand the role of histamine in the allergic response
Explain how allergies can be life threatening using swelling and vascular responses as examples.
