What is another name for a macrophage?
Histiocyte
Cell migration along surface gradients
Haptotaxis

*action of chemokines in chronic inf.
Suppress the release of TNF-alpha from phagocytes (2)
1) Pentoxifylline
2) Talidomide
Antagonist to IL-1, TNF and INF-y
TGF Beta
Fusions of macrophages found on the outside of a granuloma
Giant cell
Type of giant cell found in TB
Langhan's giant cell
Type of cell with high rate of loss and replacement
Labile cell
Cell that does not normally proliferate to a great extent, but can after damage
Stable cell
Cell with an inability to divide after development and differentiation
Permanent cell
Loose connective tissue framework formed by capillary formation and fibroblast migration
Granulation tissue
Accumulation of excess collagen
Keloid (hypertrophic scar)
Excessive granulation tissue
Proud flesh (exuberant granulation)
Exuberant proliferation of fibroblasts
Desmoids (aggressive fibromatoses)
Macrophage in the liver
Von Kupffer cell
Dendritic cell within the skin
Langerhans cell
Granulomatous disease occurring in the lungs and lymph nodes with an unknown etiology
Sarcoidosis
Antogonist to IL-1, TNF, and INF-y
TGF Beta
Phagocytosis by macrophages of dead cell and debris, with the original tissue architecture intact
Resolution

*occurs when there is little tissue destruction (ex: lobar pneumonia)
Proliferation of cells replaces lost tissue with reconstruction of the normal architecture
Regeneration

*depends on: cell types, tissue architecture, amount of tissue lost
Fibrous scar produced from granulation tissue replaces lost tissue
Repair

*1)Macrophage phagocytosis 2)Proliferation of endothelia and fibroblasts 3)Endothelial cells into damaged area
Growth factor that promotes collagen synthesis and inhibits collagenase secretion
Transforming growth factor-B
Growth factor that promotes collagen synthesis but also promotes collagenase secretion
Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)
Growth factor which is deposited into the ECM
Fibroblast growth factor (FGF)
Destabilize the cell-matrix interactions to promote angiogenesis
Matricellular proteins
Important in tissue remodeling during endothelial cell invasion
Proteases (plasminogen activators and matrix metalloproteases)
