- Back
What are the three following characteristics associated with...
-Hemodynamic changes -Neutrophils -Chemical mediators |
Acute Inflammation
|
|
Acute Inflammation =
|
-immediate response to injury
-contributed to innate immunity -SHORT duration -Cardinal Signs = Rubor, Calor, Tumor, Dolor, Functio laesa Rubor = Redness Calor = Heat Tumor = Swelling Dolor = Pain Functio laesa = Loss of Function |
|
Selectins =
|
Weak binding
Initiate rolling |
|
Integrins =
|
Stable binding
Adhesion |
|
Neutrophils associated with AML have granules that contain what enzyme?
What about granules in CML Neutrophils? |
AML = Neutrophilic granules contain Myeloperoxidase
CML = Neutrophilic granules contain Leukocyte Alkaline Phosphatase (LAP) |
|
Adhesion and Migration into inflamed tissue ...
What is the first step after VD and the leukocytes move into the tissue? What is a key component of this stage? |
-Rolling is induced via P-Selectin and E-selectin
|
|
What is the next step after rolling begins in the adhesion/migration stage of inflammation?
|
-Integrin ligands at the endothelium stop rolling and allow stable adhesion of the leukocytes
-The leukocyte then migrates through the endothelium to enter the cell and fibrin/fibronectin allow scar tissue formation |
|
What are important chemotaxic agents?
|
-C5a
-Leukotriene B4 -IL-8 |
|
What deficiency do the following symptoms describe..
-Autosomal recessive -Deficiency of Beta-2 integrin (CD18) -Recurrent Bacterial Infections -Delay in Umbilical Cord Sloughing |
Leukocyte Adhesion Deficiency
|
|
Defects in adhesion can result in...
|
-Diabetes Mellitus
-CCS use -Acute Alcohol Intoxication -Leukocyte Adhesion Deficiency |
|
What is this form of intracellular killing called...
-respiratory burst -requires O2 and NADPH oxidase -produces superoxide, hydroxyl radicals, and hydrogen peroxide -Myeloperoxidase converts H2O2 --> OCl- (bactericidal) |
-Oxygen-dependent killing
Deficiency of NADPH Oxidase --> Chronic granulomatous disease Def of Myeloperoxidase --> chronic Candida infections |
|
What is this form of intracellular killing called...
-Uses lysozyme, lactoferrin, acid hydrolases, bactericidal permeability increasing protein, defensins |
-Oxygen-independent killing
|
|
Vasoactive Amines (2) are...
|
-Histamine (from basophils, platelets, mast cells)
-Serotonin (from platelets) |
|
Preformed mediators in secretory granules of cellular inflammation (3)
|
-Histamine (from basophils, platelets, mast cells)
-Serotonin (from platelets) -Lysosomal enzymes (from neutrophils, macrophages) |
|
Newly synthesized mediators of cellular inflammation (6)
|
-Prostaglandins (from leukocytes, platelets, Endothelial Cells)
-Leukotrienes (from leukocytes) -Platelet activating factors (from leukocytes and Endothelial Cells) -Activated O2 species (from leukocytes) -Nitric Oxide (from macrophages) -Cytokines (from lymphocytes, macrophages, Endothelial Cells) |
|
What type of inflammation (Acute vs Chronic) does the following describe as its' outcomes:
-Complete resolution with regeneration -Complete resolution with scarring/healing -Abscess formation -Transition to chronic inflammation |
-Acute inflammation
|
|
Macrophages:
-what are they derived from? -life span in connective tissue? -where are they recruited from during inflammation? -what are the associated chemotactic factors? -what disease process causes it to become an epithelioid cell? |
-derived from Monocytes
-life span = 60-120 days -recruited from the blood for inflammation -Chemotactic factors: C5a, MCP1, MIP1-alpha, PDGF, TGF-beta -Granulomatous processes cause macrophages to become modified epithelioid cells |
|
Commonly used cells for chronic inflammation (4)
|
-Macrophages
-Lymphocytes -Eosinophils -Basophils |
|
Eosinophils are associated with what types of infection?
|
-Parasitic infections
-IgE mediated allergic reactions (Type I hypersensitivity) |
|
Basophils are involved with what type of reaction?
|
-Type I hypersensitivity reaction = IgE mediated reactions
-Release histamine |
|
Mediators of Pain (2)
|
-Bradykinin
-Prostaglandins (E2) |
|
Mediators of Fever (4)
|
-Cytokines: IL1, IL6, and TNF-alpha
-Prostaglandins |
|
What does the following describe:
-special form of chronic inflammation -small aggregates of modified macrophages -involves CD4+ Th1 lymphocytes |
-Chronic Granulomatous inflammation
|
|
What is IFN gamma's job in granuloma formation?
|
Conversion from macrophage --> Epithelioid cells
|
|
Fusion of epithelioid cells in a granuloma is referred to as...
