MAMMALIAN PHENOTYPE - ANNOTATIONS

The Mouse Adult Gross Anatomy Ontology and Mammalian Phenotype Ontology are downloaded weekly from the Mouse Genome Informatics databases at Jackson Laboratories (ftp://ftp.informatics.jax.org/pub/reports/index.html).

Term:increased susceptibility to type III hypersensitivity reaction
go back to main search page
Accession:MP:0005615 term browser browse the term
Definition:greater likelihood of developing tissue injury mediated by immune complexes; generally involves immune complexes formed in the blood via antibodies encountering circulating antigen; Ag-Ab complexes then deposit in tissues (especially blood vessels and glomeruli), induce complement activation, and result in tissue injury
Comment:Examples of this include: Autoimmune diseases: systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), rheumatoid arthritis, Sjogren syndrome, scleroderma, and glomerulonephritis.
Synonyms:exact_synonym: decreased resistance to immune complex mediated hypersensitivity;   decreased resistance to type III hypersensitivity reaction;   increased susceptibility to immune complex mediated hypersensitivity
