Q

… are inflammatory mediators that are derived from cell membrane phospholipids and they work with histamine and bradykinin to accomplish constriction PGE2 or dilation PGF2a, production or inhibition of clots, thermoregulatory center of hypothalamus (PGE1)
and redness edema and pain (PGE2)

Q

E selectins take hours because they are activated by

A

cytokines

17
Q

L selectins are found on

A

neutrophils, monocytes, T and B cells

18
Q

Second step is… and is when chemokines act on rolling leukocyte and causes chemokines to change to high affinity and slows down leukocyte more

A

integrin activation

19
Q

integrins are on the… and the ligand is on the…

A

leukocyte

endothelial cell

20
Q

Step 3 is.. where high affinity integrins bind to ligands and the leukocyte stops and flattens out (cytoskeleton rearrangements)

A

adherence

21

lymphocytes take a different… it occurs in high endothelial venules and doesnt need to be activated
