3 Fig 2 Drug and patient factors involved in the development of drug hypersensitivity. The main areas, stimulation of dendritic cells and their drug-induced maturation, formation of antigenic sites, preferential presentation of drugs/haptens by certain HLA alleles and reaction of a hapten-peptide complex or of the drug directly with certain TCRs, participation of Treg cells, and mechanisms of cytotoxicity, were presented at the 4th Drug Hypersensitivity Meeting and are discussed in the text.
