Question

Which immunoglobulin class is responsible for triggering hypersensitivity reactions in response to allergens?

विकल्प

• IgE

• IgG

IgE is responsible for triggering hypersensitivity reactions, particularly Type I hypersensitivity (allergic reactions). When IgE antibodies bind to allergens, they interact with mast cells and basophils, causing the release of histamine and other chemical mediators that produce allergic symptoms.
