After transplantation of bone marrow donors ...

Immune system causing abnormally low activity or hyperactivity of the immune system. In cases of immune system hyperactivity, the body attacks its own tissues and damage (


). Immune deficiency diseases reduce the suits ability to fight invaders, causing vulnerability to infections. Allergy and Asthma Allergy as a result of excessive immune response is not dangerous for foreign substances. Food and inhaled particles like pet dander and pollen are the most common allergens (substances that cause allergic reactions). When the immune system senses an allergen, it stimulates the release of chemicals such as histamine. Symptoms may resultingP includeP, eye irritation, rashes, nasal congestion, ORP


and vomiting. AntihistamineP


can reduce symptoms, but avoid the influence of allergens, the best preventive treatment of allergies. Asthma is a condition where the immune system becomes hyperactive in the airways (bronchi) in the lungs. People suffering from asthma suffer recurrent episodes of airway narrowing (bronchospasm), which makes it difficult to breath. Most people with asthma also have ongoing inflammation in the airways. P


sometimes includes daily lasix 4 mg inhaled corticosteroid, which reduces the hyperactivity of the immune system and inflammation. In response to unknown triggers the immune system may begin to produce antibodies for fighting infection, attacking its own tissues overalls. Treatment of autoimmune diseases in general aims at reducing the activity of the immune system. Examples of autoimmune diseases include:. The immune system produces antibodies that attach to the lining of the joints. Cells of the immune system to attack joints, causing inflammation, swelling and pain. If untreated, P


gradually causes irreversible joint damage. Treatment of rheumatoid arthritis may include a variety of oral or injectable drugs that reduce overactivity of the immune system. Systemic lupus erythematosus (lupus). People who suffer from lupus developed autoimmune antibodies that can attach to tissue throughout the body. Joints, lungs, blood cells, nerves and kidneys are usually affected in lupus. Treatment often requires daily oral prednisone, a steroid that reduces the immune system. (IBD). The immune system attacks the lining of the intestines, causing diarrhea, P, urgent stools, abdominal pain, fever and weight loss. P


and Crohn's disease are two main forms of IBD. Oral and injection of immune suppression drugs can treat IBD. (MS). The immune system destroys the nerve cells, causing symptoms that may include pain, blindness, weakness, loss of coordination, and muscle spasms. Other medications that suppress the immune system can be used to treat multiple sclerosis. diabetes. The immune system antibodies attack and destroy insulin-producing cells of the pancreas. At a young age in people with type 1 diabetes require insulin injections to survive. Guillain-Barre syndrome. The immune system attacks the nerves controlling the muscles in the legs and sometimes arms and upper body. Weakness results that can sometimes be very serious. Filtering the blood plasmapheresis procedure is the main treatment-Barre syndrome Hyena Psoriasis >>. << In psoriasis, an overactive immune system blood cells called T cells accumulate in the skin. The immune system stimulates the skin cells to multiply faster, producing a silvery, scaly patches on the skin .. The immune system produces antibodies that stimulate the thyroid to make excess thyroid hormone levels (). Symptoms of Graves' disease may include bulging eyes, as well as weight loss, nervousness, irritability, palpitations, weakness and fragility of the hair. Destruction or removal of the thyroid with medication or surgery, usually to treat Graves' disease .. Antibodies produced by the immune system attacks the thyroid gland, gradually destroying the cells that produce thyroid hormone. Low thyroid hormone develop (hypothyroidism), usually for several months to several years. Symptoms include fatigue, constipation, weight gain, depression, dry skin, and sensitivity to cold. Taking daily oral tablet of synthetic thyroid hormone restores normal body functions. Myasthenia gravis. Antibodies bind to the nerves and make them unable to stimulate the muscles properly. The weakness that gets worse with activity is the primary symptom of myasthenia. Pyrydostyhmyna (pirydostyhmin) is the main medicine used to treat myasthenia. Vasculitis. The immune system attacks and damages the blood vessels in this group of autoimmune diseases. Vasculitis can affect any organ, because the symptoms vary widely and can occur almost anywhere in the body. Treatment includes a decrease in activity of the immune system, usually prednisone or other corticosteroids. The immune system may be suppressed or cure disease. Immune deficiency may be present from birth, as a genetic disease (primary immunodeficiency). Immune deficiency disease leads to increased vulnerability to infections. Examples of diseases of immune deficiency include:


severe combined immune deficiency (). Genetic disease causes severe disturbances in various areas of the immune system. Children with SCID die of overwhelming infection, usually before the age of 1. Bone marrow can cure some cases of SCID. Common variable immunodeficiency (). Due to genetic defects, immune system produces antibodies, too few to effectively fight infection. Children Stodolya tend to have frequent infections Thep, lungs, nose, eyes and other organs. Treatment involves replacing the missing antibodies with regular injections of antibodies, called immunoglobulins. Human immunodeficiency virus / acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (/ AIDS). HIV infects and destroys immune cells that normally fight infection. As the number of cells of the immune system goes down, people's vulnerability to infection increases constantly. Drug-induced immunodeficiency. Drugs that suppress the immune system resulting in increased likelihood of infection. People who take immune suppression drugs for a long time require careful monitoring to detect and treat any infection occurring. Graft-versus-host syndrome. After bone marrow transplantation, donor cells of the immune system can attack human tissue that receives a transplant. Prednisolone and other immune suppressing drugs used to prevent excessive damage to organs caused by the donor immune system cells. (Article Y WebMDP.
