Pathoma Inflammation, inflammatory disorders, wound healing Flashcards
(133 cards)
Inflammation allows what to happen?
Inflammatory cells, plasma proteins, and fluid to exit from vessel to enter interstitial space
Cells seen in acute inflammation
Neutrophil
Cells in chronic inflammation
Lymphocytes
Acute inflammation characterized by
Edema and neutrophils
Acute inflammation arises in response to what 2 things
Infection or tissue necrosis - eliminate pathogen or clear necrotic debris
What is included in innate immunity
epithelium, mucus secreted by cells, complement system, cells (mast, macrophages, neutrophils, eosinophils, basophils)
Acute inflammation mediated by what factors?
TLRs: present on cells of innate immunity
AA: from phospholipase A2 (acted on by COX/5-lipooxygease)
What do TLRs recognize?
PAMPs - pathogen associated molecular patterns
What TLR is found on macrophages and recognizes LPS on outer membrane of G- bacteria
CD14
TLR activation results in upregulation of?
NF-kappaB
activates immune response genes
COX pathway produces what?
PG
I2, D2, E2
Mediate vasodilation (arteriole) and vascular permeability (post-capillary venule)
E2 - also mediates fever and pain
5-lipooxygenase produces?
LT
B4 - attracts and activates neutrophils
C4, D4, E4 - vasoconstriction, bronchospasm, increased vascular permeability - contract smooth muscle
What attracts/activates neutrophils?
LTB4, C5A, IL8, bacterial products
mast cells activated by
tissue trauma
complement proteins C3a, C5a
Crosslinking of cell surface IgE by antigen
what does histamine do
mediates vasodilation of arterioles and increase vascular permeability
Delayed response of mast cell
production of AA metabolites - leukotrienes to maintain inflammatory response
Complement for acute inflammation activation
classical pathway (C1) binds IgG/IgM bound to antigen "GM makes classic cars"
alternative pathway - microbial products directly activate complement
mannose binding lectin pathway - MBL binds mannose on microorganisms and activates complement.
complement pathways result in
C3 convertase: C3 - C3a/b which activates
C5 convertase: C5 - C5a/b which creates formation of MAC
Binds with C6-9 to form MAC complex
C3a and C5a trigger what?
Mast cell degranulation
C5a is chemotactic for what?
neutrophils
C3b action
opsonin for phagocytosis
MAC complex does what?
Lyses microbes by creating holes in cell membrane
Hageman Factor
Activated up subendothelial or tissue collage
Produced in liver - important role in DIC (Gram - Sepsis)
What does Hegeman factor activate?
Coagulation and fibrinolytic systems
Complement
Kinin system (cleave HMWK to bradykinin - mediates vasodilation, vascular permeability, pain
