Q

Pathway of Tissue Damage

A

1) tissue damage (chemical change in interstitial fluid)
2) mast cell activation (release of histamine and heparin)
3) redness, swelling, heat, pain: histamine causes dilation of vessels or clot formation
OR
3) phagocyte attraction (attracts neutrophils)
4) release of cytokines
5) removes debris via neutrophils and macrophages
OR
5) specific defenses
