acute inflamation vocab

QuestionAnswer
Inflammation beneficial host response to foreign invaders and cecrotic tissue. initiates repair prcocess can cause tissue damage and exacerbate the problem
Acute inflammation rapid response to cell injury or invading microbes and other foreign (non-self) substances that is designed to deliver leukocytes and plasma proteins to sites of injury
alterations in vessel caliber resulting in increased blood flow (vasodilation) and strucutal changes to permit plasma proteins to leave circulation (increased vascular permeability) Makes tissues red and swollen Vascular Changes
increased vascular permeability structural change that occurs in the vessel to permit plasma proteins to leave circulation during acute inflammation
Cellular events emigration of leukocytes (principally neutrophils) and accumulation at site of injury (celluar recruitment and activation)
neutrophils principle leukocyte to emigrate during ACUTE inflammation
cellular recruitment and activation the emigration of neutrophils (principally in acute) and accumulation at the site of injury
Vasodilation change in vascular caliber and flow vasodilation of the arterioles results in locally increase blood flow --> causes engorgement of down-stream micro-circulation (cappillaries and post capillary venules) -- erythema red/ warmth INCREASED volume of bloo
erythema redness/ warmth of tissue during an inflammatory response
transudate ultrafiltrate of blood plasma which moves form capillaries into tissues (increased vascular permeability
exudate protein rich fluid and cells move into interstitium
Edema refers to fluid accumulation in extravascular spaces which may be transudate or exudate
Endothelial cell contraction leads to intercellular gaps in capillaries and post capillary venules most comon and influential cause of increased vascular permeability REVERSIBLE process elicited by : 1. histamine 2. bradykinin 3. leukotrienes
Margination and Rolling step 1 of 4 of leukocyte recruitment weak and transient adhesions between leukocytes and endothelium mediated by selectins
selectins mediators of transient rolling
Firm Adhesion to Endothelium step 2 of 4 o leukocyte recruitment mediated by integrins expressed on leukocyte surfaces that bind to their ligands on Endothelial cells.Leukocytes interact w chemokines and activate leukocytes - change of integrins (molecular shift)lo->hi affinity
integrins firm adhesion mediator
Chemokines chemoattractant cytokines secreted by cells at sites of inflammation and displayed bound to proteoglycans on plasmalemma of Endothelial cells
Transmigration after firm adhesions on the endothelium leukocytes migrate through the vessels wall mostly in postcapillary venules. Driven by chemokines - PECAM-1 and CD31 expressed on leukocytes /endotheloial cells mediating binding necessary for diapedesis
diapedesis migration of leukocytes through the vessels wall
Chemotaxis migration tward sites of injury in extracellular tissues along a chemical gradient. Mediators include bacterial products/cytokines/chemokines/complement components/ leukotrienes
leukocyte activation activation of WBC at site of injury TLR and G protein receptors expressed on WBC recognize molecules that mediate activation binding to app ligands= functional outmocmes that change activity of WBC -> cause activation
toll like receptors TLR receptor on cell surface of leukocyte that recognizes products from microbes during leukocyte activation at site of injury
Phagocytosis (3 steps) enhanced function of leukocytes resulting from activation. Step 1: recognition and attatchment Step 2:engulfment with subsequent formation of phagocytic vacuole Step 3: killing and degradation of ingested material
leukocytes bind and ingest most microorganisms by surface receptors which either recognize cell componenets or recognize what?onins opsonins
Killing and degradation of phagocytosed microbes and dead tissues is done by what means reactive oxygen species, inducible nitric oxide synthetase and lysomsomal enzymes - all stimulated by activation
mediators that amplify inflammatory reaction produced after activation of WBC arachridonic acid metabolites (LEUKOTRIENES) and cytokines
lysosomal enzymes release after activation of WBC assist in killing and deradation of phagocytosed cicrobes and dead tissues // also released during inflammation causing leukocyte induced tissue injury
ROS reactive oxygen species released not only within the phagolysosome during leukocyte activation responsible for killing and degradation of phagocytosed microbes and dead tissues also into x-cellular space injuring neighboring cells - bystander effect -
RNS reactive nitrogen species released during leukocyte activation not only in phagocytosed microbes but also into x-cellular space, injuring neighboring cells also
macrophages activated leukocytes primarily responsible for secreting cytokines that stimulate further inflammation - macrophages are tissue fixed along lymphocytes as secrete cytokine as as inflammatory mediator and amplify reaction
cytokines (leukocyte recruitment) TNF and IL-1 also important in leukocyte recruitment activate Endothelial cells to increase expression of ligands for integrins ICAM - 1 and VCAM-1
Resolution the outcome of the inflammation. When the injury is limited or short lived with no or minimal damage and tissue is capable of replacing any irreversibly injured cells
Progression to chronic inflammation non resolution of agent --> chronic inflammation / effector cells - molecular mediators drive inflam cascade TUBERCULOSIS # of organism low/ lesions big due to persistence of T cell macrophages to mediate granulomas
Scarring or fibrosis results after substanial tissue damage or when inflammation occurs in tissue that do not regenerate deep wounds - damage to epidermis and B Membrane also seen in liver and lung lobes exceeds capacity of tissue to regenerate

pyogenic (pus forming) organism
Serous inflammation produced characterised by outpouring of watery, protein POOR fluid that derives either from serum or from mesothelial cells lining pertoneal, pleural, or pericardial cavity BLISTER example
Fibrinous inflammation more severe injury/greater vascular permeability /lar molecules pass endothelial barrier/ appears eosinophilic/restoration may occur but failure to remove fibrin results in ingrowth of fibrin and Bl vessels - leading to scar. Fibrinous pericarditis image
Suppurative inflammation aka Purulent inflammation Abscess is an example of this presence of large amts of pus (Neutrophils,necrotic cells, edema fluid) large central necrotic region rimmed by layer of preserved Neutrophils with surrounding zone of dilated vessels and fibroblastic proliferation

systemic acutephase reaction reaction often associated with infection and inflammatory diseases. Fever, lethargy, hepatic synthesis of various acute phase proteins, metabolic wasting, neutrophil release into circulation, release of adrenocorticotropic hormone
chemoattractants chemokines
Complement system: The plasma proteins-complement system play important role in immunity and inflammation leads to generation of multiple breakdown products which are responsible for leukocyte chemotaxis,opsonization/ phagocytosis of microbes/other particles cell killing

What 4 systems involved in the inflammatory response is initiated by factor XII of the intrinsic coagulation cascade? 1. the kinin system -vasoactive kinins 2. clotting system- inducing activation of thrombin, fibrinopeptides and factor X 3. the fibrinolytic system - producing plasmin and inactivating thrombin 4. complement system producing anaphylatoxins C3a and C5a.
FACTOR XII of the intrinsic coagulation cascade protein synth by the liver that circulates inactive form until encounters collagen/B. Membrane/activated platelets at site Endothelial injury. -->conformational change XIIa expose serine center-cleaves protein substrates of the kinin/coagulation systems
clotting system factor XIIa driven cascade activates thrombin which cleaves circulating soluble fibrinogen to generate an insoluble fibrin clot. Factor Xa an intermediate in the clotting cascade causes increased vascular permeability and WBC emigration
Thrombin participate in inflam by binding to protease-activated receptors expressed on platelets endothelial cells/other cells types.Binding thrombin to receptors on endothelial cells --> activation and enhanced leukocyte adhesion; also generates fibrinopeptides
