19	Objective of the Course:	Definition of hypersensitivity, immunodeficience and autoimmune diseases in animals
20	Contribution of the Course to Professional Development	Since many autoimmune diseases are important, especially in small animal medicine, the course should be taken by these physicians.

Learning Outcomes:

1	Ability to explain the mechanism of hypersensitivity.;
2	Ability to be able to define and to compare the types of hypersensitivity;
3	To define molecules and cells attend to hypersensitivity, and to comment allergies again to food, drug, vaccine and parasite.;
4	Being able to define the relationship blood tranfusion and hypersensitivity in animals’s;
5	To be able to interpret the basic mechanism of type ııı hypersensitivite important in veterinary medicine;
6	Ability to define to comment diagnostic reactions based on type IV hypersensitivity;
7	To be able to define immundeficiency mechanisms and to explain the role and importance in veterinary medicine;
8	To be able to define autoimmunity mechanisms and to explain the role and importance in veterinary medicine;

22	Course Content:

Week	Theoretical	Practical

2	Spesific allergic reactions related to type I hypersensitivity
3	Type II hypersensitivity and erytrocyte antigens
4	Blood groups, blood tranfusions and their relationship with type II hypersensitivity
5	Type III hypersensitivity and immune complexes
6	Local and generalize type III hypersensitivity reactions
7	Type IV hypersensitivity and delayed hypersensitivity
8	Primary immunodeficiencies
