Pathology is what 3 types of dis
|
degenerative dis
neoplastic dis inflammatory dis |
|
Ch 2 covers what 5 aspects of inflammation
|
-concept of inf
-role of mediators -3 outcomes of acute inf -3 morphologic patterns of acute inf -chronic inf |
|
How can you describe the sequence of events of inflammation
|
a linear sequence of events and you must know the order
|
|
what happens if acute inf is prolonged
|
can become chronic
|
|
What are the sequence of linear events which occur in inf
|
-normal histo
-vasodilation -inc vas permeability -leakage of exudate -Margination, Rolling, Adhesion -Transmigration -Chemotaxis -PMN Activation Phagocytosis -Termination -3 Results |
|
Where does vasodilatation occur
|
at the level of post-cap venules
|
|
exudate
|
An exudate is any fluid that filters from the circulatory system into lesions or areas of inflammation
|
|
M R A
|
margination, rolling, adhesion; in this order of neutrophils
|
|
diapedesis
|
outward passage of blood cells through intact vessel walls
|
|
chemotaxis
|
Chemotaxis is the phenomenon in which somatic cells, bacteria, and other single-cell or multicellular organisms direct their movements according to certain chemicals in their environment.
|
|
events of phagocytosis
|
recognition, attachment, engulfment, killing (degradation or digestion)
|
|
3 results (outcomes) of inf
|
100% resolution, scar, or chronic inf
|
|
scar aka
|
fibrosis
|
|
acute inf is...
|
non-specific process protective response
|
|
3 aspects of acute inf
|
-vascular events
-cellular events -mediators |
|
if you see polys in an appendix what would you call it?
|
acute appendicitis
|
|
cardinal signs of inf
|
-Rubor
-Calor -Tumor -Dolor -Functio Lasea |
|
Rubor
|
Red
|
|
Calor
|
Heat
|
|
Tumor
|
Buldge
|
|
Functio Laesa
|
loss of function or a disturbance of function.
|
|
stimuli for acute inf
|
--infectious
--physical (trauma, radiation) --chemical -tissue necrosis -FBs (foreign bodies) -immune responses |
|
After stimuli of acute inf
|
valvular changes
|
|
what are the valvular changes
|
-changes in vascular flow and caliber
-inc vascular permeability (leakage of fluid) |
|
what are 3 causes of inc permeability
|
-dilatation
-endothelial gaps -direct injuiry |
|
what are 3 results of inc permeability
|
-leukocyte inj
-transcytosis (endo/exo cytosis) -triggers off new BV (late) |
|
what is the proteinaceous fluid which leaks
|
exudate not transudate
|
|
transudate compared to exudate
|
smaller molecules than exudate, exudate needs larger holes
|
|
after BV dilation and leakage of fluid (must know order)
|
-margination
-rolling -adhesion -transmigration (diapedesis) |
|
margination
|
PMN's go toward wall
|
|
rolling
|
tumbling and heaping
|
|
transmigration aka
|
diapedesis
|
|
what type of molecules are adhesion molecules which affect adhesion and transmigration
|
glycoproteins
|
|
what are the 2 molecules which are crucial for white blood cell adhesion and transmigration
|
-secretins
-integretins |
|
after EBC escapes from BV where do they go
|
to the site of injury
|
|
chemotaxis relative to inf
|
PMNs going to the site of injury after transmigration
|
|
after chemotaxis, what happens
|
leukocyte activation
|
|
leukocyte activation is triggered by the offending stimuli for PMNs to
|
Produce eicosanoids
prostaglandins leukotrines lipoxins -they undergo degranulation -secrete cytokines |
|
3 parts of phagocytosis
|
-recognition
-engulfment -killing (deg/dig) |
|
5 factors of chemical mediators
|
-from plasma or cells
-have triggering stimuli -usually have specific targets -can cause a cascade -are short lived |
|
where does histamine come from
|
mast cells and basophils; igE on mast cell; a vasoactive amine
|
|
action of histamine
|
a powerful vasodilator
|
|
serotonin aka
|
5-hydroxy-tryptamine
|
|
serotonin come from
|
platelets and enterochromaffin cells
|
|
action of serotonin
|
vasodilation; more indirect; evokes NO synthetase
|
|
what is the complement system
|
>20 components in circulating plasma
|
|
action of complement system
|
multi sites of action but lysis is underlying theme after an extensive cascade
|
|
what is the key component of the kinin system
|
bradykinin
|
|
where is the kinin system found
|
also a circulating plasma
|
|
actions of the kinin system
|
-inc vas permeability
-smooth muscle contractions (non-vascular) -pain |
