Q

what are the two principle components of inflammation

A

Vascular reaction – involves fluid and plasma proteins (e.g. complement and fibrin), blood vessels, and extracellular matrix elements (increased blood flow and increased permeability)( vasodilation- NO, bradykinin,PGD2 permeability- histamine, bradykinin, PGE2, C5, C3, IL-1, TNF)

Cellular reaction – neutrophils, monocytes, eosinophils, lymphocytes, basophils, platelets, tissue mast cells, fibroblasts, and macrophages. Important role for extracellular matrix such as fibrous proteins (collagen and elastin) adhesive glycoproteins (fibronectin, laminin) and proteoglycans (movement of immune cells) chemotaxis- C5, IL-1, TNF
