25
Q

Similar to prostoglandis, ___ has a function in intial constriction of any feta vessles that eventually close

A

Bradykinin

26
Q

Work on nerve endings, lower pain threshold, more pain. Peripheral nervous syste.

A

Neuropeptides

27
Q

What common feature of inflmmation?

accelerated release of cells from the bone marrow postmitotic reserve pool (caused by cytokines, including TNF and IL-1) and is therefore associated with **increased numbers of immature neutrophils in the blood (“band” cells), referred to as a shift to the left

A

Leukocytosis

28
Q

Most bacterial infections induce an increase in the blood neutrophil count

A

Neutrophelia

29
Q

Viral infections, such as infectious mononucleosis, mumps, and German measles, cause an **absolute increase in the number of lymphocytes **

no fever BUT very Fatigued. Chronic inflmation

A

Lymphocytosis

30
Q

allergies and parasitic infestations, blood eosinophils increase

A

Eosinophillia

31
Q

Certain infections (typhoid fever and infections caused by rickettsiae, and certain viruses and protozoa) are associated with a **decreased number of circulating white cells

A

Leukopenia

32
Q

Protiens sythesized by the liver and released on a contiunous basis at a homeostatic level.

Pre-preared, released all at once during inflmatory reaction (TNF and IL-6 trigger this)

A

Q

Ferritin, fibrogen, hepcidin, CRP, AA amyloid are all examples of what?

A

Actue phase protiens

34
Q

What acute phase protien?

Binds bacterial polysachrdes then activates complemenet.
Detected in serum= inflamation , prognosis!

A

High levels of CRP

36
Q

37
Q

During an infection binding of Iron away from microbs by ferritin results in what?

A

Temporary iron defficency
