how does inflamm manifest in lungs?
congested blood vessels (packed with erythrocytes), resulting from stasis. The cellular component of the response is manifested by large numbers of leukocytes (neutrophils) in the alveoli.
what are the main vascular and cellular responses to inflamm?
*Increased blood flow (vasodilation) : @ lower rate b/c blood becomes more viscous
*Increased vascular permeability (leakage)
*Migration of leukocytes (chemotaxis)
normally, what pressure does a blood vessel wall feel?
hydrostatic pressure = colloid osmotic pressure
what leaks in transudate? exudate?
transudate- fluid
exudate- fluid and protein
why does transudate form?
inc hydrostatic pressure >> dec colloid osmotic pressure
under normal circumstances, what is the pressure in a vessel?
Normal hydrostatic pressure (blue arrows) is about 32 mm Hg at the arterial end of a capillary bed and 12 mm Hg at the venous end; the mean colloid osmotic pressure of tissues is approximately 25 mm Hg (green arrows), which is equal to the mean capillary pressure
why does exudate form?
vascular permeability increases as a result of increased interendothelial spaces.
what are some of the vascular changes in inflamm?
*Transient Vasoconstriction
-Hemostasis (stops leaking of cut vessels)
*Vasodilation

how do leukocytes get out of vessels and into tissue?
*Margination

*Transmigration (Diapedesis)
– Integrin
*Chemotaxis
how does leukocyte att to venule surface?
glycoprotein on leukocyte att to selectin on venule
describe the mvmnt of the leukocyte:
leukocytes first roll, then become activated and adhere to endothelium, then transmigrate across the endothelium, pierce the basement membrane, and migrate toward chemoattractants emanating from the source of injury.
what are key molecs used in leukocyte extravasation?
Different molecules play predominant roles in different steps of this process—selectins in rolling; chemokines (usually displayed bound to proteoglycans) in activating the neutrophils to increase avidity of integrins; integrins in firm adhesion; and CD31 (PECAM-1) in transmigration. Neutrophils express low levels of L-selectin; they bind to endothelial cells predominantly via P- and E-selectins. ICAM-1, intercellular adhesion molecule 1; TNF, tumor necrosis factor.
