Figure 1.- Different mechanisms of hypersensitivity
reactions induced by drugs. Drugs or their metabolites interact with
the antigen-presenting cells (APC), dendritic cells (DC) that depending
on the maturational or activation status will present the drug to
T-lymphocytes in lymph nodes inducing immediate, delayed or tolerant
drug-specific immune responses.
