Question | Answer |
---|---|
are the first phagocytic leukoctes to arrive at the inflamed site. They ingest bacteria, dead cells and cellular debris and then die and are removed as pus through the epithelium and lymphatic system. | neutrophils |
help to control the inflammatory response or act directly against parasites. | eosinohils |
have a function similar to the mast cell. | basophils |
are cytoplasmic fragments that stop bleeding if vascular injury has occurred | platlets |
probably the most important activation of the inflammatory response. Develop in the bone marrow move through the blood stream and mature in the tissue. They are filled with granule and located in the loose connective tissue close to blood vessels. | mast cells |
vasoactive amine that causes temporary rapid constriction of the smooth muscle of large vessel walls dilation of the postcapillary venules resulting in increased blood flow into the microcirculation and increased vascular permeability resulting from retra | histamine |
directional movement of cells along a chemical gradient formed by a chemotactic factor. | chemotaxis |
primary defense against some parasites. | esinophil |
the proteins of the _____ system are among the body’s most potent defenders against bacterial infection. | complement system |
the ___ system is a plasma protein system that forms a fibrous meshwork at the inflamed site to trap exudates, microorganisms, and foreign bodies. | clotting system |
the main substance in the above mesh work. | fibrin |
at low doses causes dilation of vessels, acts with prostaglandins to induce pain, cause extravascular smooth muscle contraction, increase vascular permeability, and may increase leukocyte chemotaxis. | bradykinin |
live longer then any of the other cells. | macrophage |
arrive first at the site of injury. | neutrophils |
largest normal blood cell. | monocyte |
produced in the bone marrow enters the circulation and migrates to the inflammatory site where it develops into a macrophage. | monocyte |
secrete substances that promote the re-growth of tissue during wound healing. | macrophages |
turned on by lymphokines secreted by T-cells | macrophage |
granulocytes with many lysosomes containing serotonin and hisamine and a protein that can dissolve the surface membranes of parasites. Do not phagocytose. | eosinophil |
the chief immunoglobulin involved in allergic hypersensitivity reactions. | IgE |
one of the body’s defenses against viral infection is production of this, and has no effect on a cell that is already infected by the virus. | interferon |
acts directly on the hypothalamus which controls the body’s thermostat. | interluekin 1 |
