Classic Signs of Inflammation
Redness (Erythema)
Swelling
Heat
Pain
Loss of Function
Inflammatory Response:

Order of Appearance of Cells in Inflammatory Response
Neutrophils first
Monocytes Second that turn into Macrophages
Lymphocytes and Plasma Cells
Eosinophils and Mast Cells
Main Function of Neutrophils
First WBC at the site of injury.
Phagocytosis of substances such as pathogenic microorganisms and tissue debris. Neutrophil dies shortly after phagocytosis.
Main Function of Monocytes
Second WBC at site of injury.
Transforms into Macrophage as it enters the tissue inflammation.
Responds to chemotactic factor.
Mobile, phagocytizes, has lysosomal enzymes in cytoplasm.
Main Function of Mast Cell
They release histamine when allergens are encountered.
Main Function of Memory Cells
Produced from B-lymphocytes.
Retains the memory of previously encountered antigen and will clone itself in the presence of antigen
Main Function of Plasma Cells
Produced by B-lymphocytes
Produce specific antibodies to match specific antigen.
Become active on second exposure to same antigen.
Main Function of B-Lymphocytes
They produce Plasma cells which produce antibodies.
Humoral Immunity
Main Function of Natural Killer Cells
They target tumor cells, cancer cells and infected cells.
Main Function of T-Lymphocytes
These engage in the cell to cell combat.
They stimulate the mature T-cells and the Killer Cells.
There are 3 subcategories:
T-Helper
T-Killer
T-Suppresor
Inflammation v Immune Response:

Appearance of Difference Cells
Inflammation:
Neutrophils, Monocytes, Macrophages, Mast & Eosinophil

Immune:
Macrophages
Lymphocytes:
T: T-Killer, T-Helper, T-Suppressor, & Memory
Natural Killer Cells
B: Plasma, Memory
