TRUE.
35
In the _______ inflammatory reaction to allergen exposure, inflammatory infiltrate will be rich in eosinophils, neutrophils, and T-lymphocytes.
Late-phase.
36
In the _______ inflammatory reaction ot allergen exposure, vasodilation, congestion, and edema will occur.
Immediate.
37
When stimulated, arachiodonic acid derivatives will be released from ______________, and be used as an important _______________ mediator.
1. Phospholipids. 2. Inflammatory.

What enzyme will act on the cell membrane to create the arachidonic acid pool?
Phospholipases.
39
Which of the following cannot inhibit the synthesis of arachidonic acid derivatives? a. Steroids. b. NSAIDS c. COX 1/2 inhibitors. d. Phospholipases.
D - Phospholipases. Phospholipases will help create more arachidonic acid derivatives!
40
True or false: NSAIDS specifically inhibit phospholipases?
FALSE - Steroids specifically inhibit phospholipases.
41
NSAIDS are indiscriminate inhibitors of COX 1 and COX 2, meaning it will inhibit functions of both, what are the consequences of this?
Inhibition of COX-1 can cause gastric ulcers, renal ischemia, premature closure of the ductus arteriosus, and reye's syndrome.
42
COX stands for:
Cyclooxygenase.
43
This is expressed in most tissues and does maintenance of the stomach, kidneys, intestines, platelets, and endothelium. It will be initiated by a physiological stimulus, and end with a physiological stimulus. a. COX-1 b. COX-2
a - COX-1
44
This will be stimulated by an inflammatory stimuli, and attract macrophages and synoviocytes to the site of inflammation. Over-expression of this will result in gallbladder carcinoma. a. COX-1 b. COX-2
b- COX-2
45
_______ is inducible by inflammatory stimuli and occur constitutively in the immune tissues like the kidneys, bones, and brain.
COX-2
46
What are the two important pathogenic factors of edema?
1. Increased venous pressure. 2. Reduced oncotic pressure, resulting from a low albumin concentration.
47
True or false: Edema can be caused by hydrostatic and oncotic pressure increases, while decreases in vascular permeability and causing blood vessel obstruction.
FALSE - Edema will increase hydrostatic pressure and vascular permeability, while decreasing oncotic pressure and causing blood vessel obstruction.

57
What serves as a co-receptor for the TLR family?
CD-14.

59
_________ is a clotting factor created by acute-phase proteins.
Fibrinogen.

62
__________ __________ ____ provides a measure of the level of inflammation in an individual.
erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR)
63
Cytokines involved in the inflammatory response will enhance protein catabolism in skeletal muscle, for what purpose?
To provide a free amino acid pool, to use toward antibody production.

c - enhances the inflammatory response.
65
______ diffuses into the hypothalamus and raises the set-point for thermoregulation and helps maintain ______ in the inflammatory response.
1. PGE2 2. Fever
66
In a healthy individual, the hypothalamic thermoregulatory center adjusts -
The peripheral loss of heat matches the heat production.
67
Wound healing - incision wound within hours of injury:

68
Wound healing - incision wound days after being sutured:
1. Macrophages and fibroblasts are at the site of injury. 2. Granulation tissue forms. 3. Blood flow is higher.
69
Wound healing - incision wound weeks after being sutured:
Scar tissue has formed, causing a primary intention scar.
70
Primary intention scar:
Matrix will change from fibronectin and fibrin to collagen III, and finally to collagen I.
71
Wound healing - Gaping wound soon after injury:
Foreign bodies and bacteria can invade the gaping wound.
72
Wound healing - Gaping wound a while after injury:
Abundant granulation tissue forms, as a temporary structure made of C.T to replace a fibrin blood clot. (wound does not close)
73
Secondary intention scar:
Due to excessive scarring making a hypertrophic scar made mostly of type III collagen.
