Acute inflammation I Flashcards
Hallmark of acute inflammation
Neutrophils
Edema
Hallmark of chronic inflammation
Lymphocytes
What can cause acute inflammation
Inflammation
Tissue necrosis
difference between Innate and adaptive immunity
Innate: Non Specific, Immediate response, Cells ( mast cells, MO, Neutrophils, Eos, baso)
Adaptive: Specific response, Longer response, Lymphocytes
what are the components of the innate immunity
Epithelium
Mucous secreted by cells
Complement system
Cells ( mast cells, MO, Neutrophils, Eos, baso)
What are the factors of immune system?
- TLRs
- Arachinodic Acid
- Mast Cells
- Complement
- Hageman Factor
The TLRs recognize what?
PAMP (Pathogen associated molecular patterns)
The LPS of GN bacteria is recognized by?
CD14 from Macrophagues
How does the TLR’s activates the immune response?
- TLR recognizes PAMP
- TLR activates
- Upregulation of NF- KB
- NF- KB activated
- Activates immune response genes
- Leads to the production of multiple immune mediators
T/F TLRs are only found in the innate immunity
False
They are also found in the adaptive
Origin of Arachinodic Acid
Is released form the phospholipid cell membrane by phospholipase A2
What are the 2 pathways in which te arachinodic acid acts
- Cyclooxygenase Pathway
2. 5- lipooxygenasa Pathway
What are key PG in the Cyclooxygenase Pathway?
PGI2, PGD2, PGE2
***Vasodilation and increase of vascular permeability
PGE2: Fever and pain
What are key Leukotrines in the Cyclooxygenase Pathway?
LTB4– Attracts and activates neutrophils
LTC4, LTD4, LTE4– Vasoconstriction, bronchoespasm and increase vascular permeability
What are the 4 key mediators that attracts and activate neutrophils
LTB4
C5a
IL 8
