chapter 3: inflammation Flashcards
describe the formation of granulomas (tubercles)
MO MHC2 CD4+ cell presentation—> MO secretion of IL-12 –>induce TH1 cell type–>IFNY release –> formation of M1 epitheliod histiocytes and giant cells –> more IL-12 secretion to continue the cycle
what is proud flesh
excess granulation tissue that need to be removed for proper scar formation
describe the process of adhesion
binding of neutrophilic integrins to CAMs on the endothelium
integrins upregulated by C5a and LTB4
CAMs unregulated by TNF and IL-1
what are the 3 general phases of acute inflammation
- fluid phase (swelling from dilation and increase vascular permability)
- neutrophil phase (recruitment of neutrophils)
- Macrophage phase (activation of consequential response of repair or adaptive immunity)
describe the process of transmigration/diapidesis
- occurs in post capillary venule
- uses PECAM-1 (CD31) intracellular adhesion molecule to transmigrate through the endothelium
what does TH1 cells secrete
IL-2 for CD8+ t cell growth/activation
IFN-Y for MO M1 activation
cytokines that induce vasodilation
histamine
serotonin
PGI2/ D2/ E2
what are the chemotactants the recruit neutrophils in chemotaxis
IL-8
LTB4
C5a
bacterial products
source and function of histamine
mast cells, basophils, platelets
-dilation, increased permeability, endothelial activation (p-selection release)
function and source of IL-12
APCs (macrophages, dendritic cells)
stimulate TH1 cell type to increase IFN production
what type of inflammation associated with chronic inflammation and what are the hallmarks
granulomateous
- epitheloid histiocytes with pink cytoplasm
- multi-nucleated giant cells with lymphocyte rims
ECM deposition depends on a balance of what factors
TGF - fibrogenic agent
MMP - ECM degradation
TIMPS - MMP inhibitor
cytokines that induce pain
bradykinin
PGE2
what are the components of ECM
collagen
lamnin
proteoglycans
fibroblasts
source of kinins and complement
plasma produced in liver
what is the left shift
seen in luekocytosis of the acute phase response
-when huge increase in neutrophils initially causes subsequent increase in immature neutrophils in blood
secretion of M2 and function
TGF-B and GF = tissue repair and fibrosis
IL-10 and TGF-B = anti-inflammatory
describe how fever is caused in an inflammatory response
IL-1 and TNF travel to the perivasculature of the hypothalamus and subsequently increase COX activity which produces PGE2 which induces an increase in set point of body temperature
what are the 5 R’s of inflammatory reaction
- recognition
- recruitment
- removal of pathogen
- regulation of response
- repair
which APPs are activated by IL-6 and opsonize comeplement and clear necrotic cells
CRP and fibrinogen
cytokines that induce fever
IL-1
TNF
PGE2
what are the morphologic patterns of acute inflammation
serous
fibrinous
ulcer
purulent (suppurative)
what does TH2 secrete
IL-4 = IgG/E class switching IL-5= eosinophil activation, IgA switching IL-10 = inhibits TH1, anti inflammatory IL-13 = M2 activation
what causes activation of CD4+ tcells and what is its function
MHCII APC presentation of extracellular antigen = binding of B7 (on APC) to CD28 (on t-cell)
TH1 = M1 MO activation, CD8+ T cell activation
TH2= helps B cell activation, and M2 MO activation
what pharmacological agents can be used asthma treatment
- lipooxgenase inhibitor
- inhibit bronchospasm effects of Its - LT antagonist
* NSAIDs don’t affect lipoogenases or Its
what are the mediators that induce P-selectin release from webel palade bodies
histamine and thrombin
what is fibrinous acute inflammation pattern
inflammation of the lining of body cavities causes leakage of proteins such as fibrinogen (a procoagulant) leading to FIBROUS EXUDATE
-can lead to fibrosis if extensive leakage with activation
“bread and butter pericarditis”
which growth factor is responsible for endothelial proliferation ? angiogenesis ?
proliferation
VEGF
angiogenesis
FGF
define dehiscence
wound opening
define pus
a purulent inflammatory exudate rich in dead neutrophils and other WBCs and microbe debris
what is the process of regeneration and repair
regeneration = uninjured cell proliferation and stem cell maturation repair= deposition of new connective tissue
what condition is associated with C1 inhibitors of complement
- Block C1 activation in classic pathway
- hereditary angioedema
function of DAF and CD59 and what disease is associated with it
DAF-prevents C3 converstase function
CD59 prevents MAC formation
both are anchored by GPI and GPI deficiency = paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria
source of TNF
macrophages
mast cells
T-cells
what process of wound healing is responsible for some edema
angiogenesis
bc vasodilation by VEGF
describe the process of rolling
a component of neutrophil membrane (sialyl lewis X) will bind to selectins on endothelial wall and causing slowing of neutrophil movement
- P-selectins are induced by histamine and thrombin release on webel-palade bodies
- E-selectins and L-selectins are upregulated by TNF and IL-1
define hypertrophic scar
excess T1 collagen = large scar
what are the types of stimuli that cause an inflammatory reaction
microbial infection
tissue necrosis (from cell injury)
foreign bodies
immune reaction (hypersensitivity run from allergies or autoimmune)
