58-Resolution and Repair Flashcards
How do you downregulate inflammation
Stop proinflammatory stimuli
Increase lipoxin
Nitric oxide production
Anti inflammatory cytokine secretion (IL-10 and TGF-B)
What does lipoxin do?
antifinflammatory, inhibit neutrophil adhesion and chemotaxis
From arachidonic acid, leukocyte enter tissue and leukotrienes get converted to lipoxins
What does nitric oxide do
reduce leukocyte recruitment and decrease platelet activation
What does cytokine IL10 do
Released by macrophage to down regulate macrophage (negative feedback) for anti inflammation
What does TGF-B do
suppress acute inflammation
Outcomes of acute inflammation
Complete restitution, no permanent damage, regain function Tissue replacement (fibrosis) Progress to chronic inflammation
What causes an acute inflammation to progress to chronic
Persistence of injurious agent
interference with healing
autoimmunity
Outcomes of chronic inflammation
Healing with or without scar
Tissue damage
What does organized mean
In growth of fibroblasts into the blood vessel wall, leads to scarring
A subtype of healing response
What is critical to the survival of an organism
Ability to repair damage
Functions of inflammatory response
Eliminate insult and tissue damage
Start process of repair
2 ways to heal
regeneration and scar formation
What is regeneration
Replace damaged cells and return to normal state, mild injury, no damage to underlying tissue
What is scar formation
Incapable of regeneration or supporting structures are severely damaged
Deposition of fibrous tissue, severe injury
Regeneration depends on what
proliferative ability of cell
Growth factors
Interactions between cells and matrix
Type soft proliferative tissues
labile, stable, permanent
What are labile tissues
Readily regenerate, continuously dividing
Intact basement membrane
Bone marrow, epithelial, GI
What are stable tissues
Normally quiet but can proliferate
parenchyma, endothelial, fibroblasts, smooth muscle
What are permanent tissues
Non proliferative
Terminally differentiated
Neurons and cardiac muscle
Types of stem cells
Embryonic and adult
Labile tissues
Characteristics of adult stem cells
Limited capacity of self renewal
Can only become cell from where it is found
