Anti inflammatory drugs 2 Flashcards
Att
Ischemia is called what?
↓ arterial blood flow
Short-term compensations for ishemia is what?
Short-term compensations → anaerobic metabolism
One long-term compensation for ishemia is what?
One long-term compensation → angiogenesis “collateral circulation”
Treatment is aimed at what for ishemia?
Treatment is aimed at improving/restoring blood flow and increasing oxygen levels in the bloo
Types of Necrosis
coagulative
Liquefactive
Caseous
Gangrene
Describe Coagulative necrosis
ischemia, free radical, still looks like a cell for a while, may have viable cells around it
Describe Liquefactive necrosis
bacterial (WBC enzymes dissolve tissue
Describe Caseous necrosis
coagulated tissue no longer recognizable, cheese like appearance
Describe Gangrene and the two types?
gangrene – build-up of decomposing dead tissue, usually refers to appendage/limb with ischemic necrosis
•dry chronic/slow
•wet acute/quick/possible bacteria
What are the two types of cell injury?
lethal and sublethal
Cell Adaptation to Sublethal Injury are
Adaptive changes: •Atrophy (↓ number or size)• Hypertrophy (↑ size)• Hyperplasia (↑ number)• Metaplasia (new type)
maladaptive changes:
maladaptive changes:
•Dysplasia (abnormal change)is an abnormal differentiation of dividing cells that results in changes in their size, shape, and
appearance
•Anaplasia (↑ immature)
Describe “collateral circulation?
“collateral circulation” – develop additional small arterial vessels from other local arteries that re-route blood around a blocked artery
Excessive apoptosis can lead to?
Excessive apoptosis can lead to atrophy
Define Debridement?
medical removal of dead, damaged, or infected tissue to improve healing in the remaining healthy tissue
What are the three ways of Debridement?
Surgical Removal (scraping/curettage, cutting away) •Enzymatic Creams & Dressings (break down dead tissue) •Mechanical Irrigation (with syringe of NS
Define autolysis?
The body will use natural enzymes to break down dead tissue andphagocytes to remove it
What are the three Non-Specific (Innate) Immune Response
Skin and mucous memebrane
mononuclear phagocytes
inflammatory response
What are the four ways of inflammatory response?
Vascular response
Cellular response
Chemical mediators
exudate formation
In Skin and Mucous membranes what antimicrobial peptides kills bacteria, fungi and viruses
Antimicrobial peptides “defensins” can kill many bacteria, fungi and viruses
What are the three functions of Phagocytes
Removal of old or damaged cells
Recognition, destruction and removal of invading agents such as microorganisms
Participation in the inflammatory and immune response
Free, mobile phagocytes are called?
Monocytes in blood
When monocytes enter the tissue they are called what and what is the difference between both life spans?
Monocytes circulate in the blood/lymph/spleen and enter into tissue to become macrophage
Monocytes ~ 1-day half-life, macrophage ~ live for months
Fixed (resident) phagocytes are called and where are they located?
Specialized tissue macrophages in the liver, spleen, bone marrow, lungs, lymph nodes, nervous system (specific name
Tissue macrophages are _______ phagocytes and are “on-site” ready to work
•Constant surveillance, involved in ______ & ______
Tissue macrophages are “bigger & better” phagocytes and are “on-site” ready to work•Constant surveillance, involved in inflammation & immunity
Is inflammation always caused by infection and explain the difference?
– inflammation may be caused by injury other than infection; infections almost always involve inflammati
What are the four major steps involved in inflammation?
Restore hemostasis (stops bleeding using platelets and coagulation)
Neutralize and destroy invading and harmful agents
Limit the spread of harmful agents to other tissue
Prepare any damaged tissue for repair by clean
intensity of inflammatory response depends on?
intensity of response depends on extent and severity of injury and the health of the individual’s inflammatory response system
Prolonged inflammation may do what and what is evident?
Prolonged inflammation may impair healing and result in an accumulation of macrophages, fibroblasts, and collagen called a granuloma – fibrosis and scarring are evident
In inflammation what are the two Vascular Response
Vasoconstriction (local, short) to control bleeding Vasodilation & Increased Permeability (resources to sit
Platelets form _______ and coagulation forms _______ to control bleeding
•Platelets and other local cells release what and what is it used for?
latelets form plug and coagulation forms fibrin to control bleeding
•Platelets and other local cells release proinflammatory mediators such as histamine – causes local capillary vasodilation & increased permeability (bring fluid and resources such as proteins and white cells to site of injury
Vasodilation results in _____ – increased blood flow to the area (redness, erythema)
Vasodilation results in hyperemia – increased blood flow to the area (redness, erythema)
increased permeability in the capillary allows plasma proteins (albumin) to move into the interstitial space causing what and what is the MOA?
increased permeability in the capillary allows plasma proteins (albumin) to move into the interstitial space accompanied by fluid movement, edema and swelling
What keeps the bacteria from spreading and what releases the growth factors that begins the healing process.
Fibrin from the clot traps bacteria and keeps it local
•Platelets release growth factors that begin the healing process.
Describe chemotaxis?
chemotaxis – use of released chemicals to call WBC to the area
Describe Margination and diapedesis
Margination and diapedesis – method of WBC leaving capillary and entering interstitial area –
Neutrophils response time what and what is the lifespan?
Neutrophils – phagocytes, most abundant, early response (6-12h), short life (24-48h), destroy invading bacteria, foreign material and remove injured cell de
What is stimulated to produce/increase neutrophils and what stimulates it. When neutrophils is increased what does it do to the WBC count.
The bone marrow is stimulated by released chemical mediators to create/release more neutrophils → causes an increase in the WBC count, particularly the neutrop
