Chapter Six - Innate Immunity : Inflammation And Wound Healing Flashcards
Innate immunity: first line of defence
-physical, mechanical, biochemical barriers
Innate immunity : second line of defence
Inflammation, macrophage, neutrophils
Adaptive immunity
Third line of defence
-acquired or specific immunity
-B cell or T cell
Mast cells release
Histamine
Histamines =
Vasodilation
___ enter to stop blood loss
Platelets
______ arrive to phagocytize pathogen
Macrophages and neutrophils
When macrophages arrive to phagocytize, what accumulates
Pus
-dead phagocytes and pathogens
Rapid leakage and influx of
Leakage - ions
Influx - fluids
Since water follows sodium
During inflammation vascular ____ is a principle coordinator
Epithelium
Tissue close to vessel contains two involved cells
-mast cells
-dendritic cells
Mast cells
Important inflammation activator
-release histamine
Dendritic cells
Connect innate and adaptive immune response
Both innate and adaptive systems are recruited by
Chemical molecules
Chemical molecules are released from
Damaged or destroyed cells
Cytokines
General term for chemical molecules released
-they regulate innate and adaptive immunity
Cytokines can be
Pro inflammatory or anti inflammatory
Lymphokines
Cytokines released from lymphocytes
Monokines
Cytokines released from monocytes
-which change into macrophages
Macrophages and lymphocytes also released
Itnerleukin cytokines
Main interleukins are
IL-1 and IL-6
-self limiting compared to cytokines
IL-1
Produced by macrophages
IL-6
Produced by macrophages, lymphocytes and fibroblasts
COVID 19 activates a
Cytokine storm syndrome
-severe systemic inflammatory response
IL-6 has cytokine released =
Excessive recruitment of lymphocytes
COVID 19 treatment
Is production of IL-6 antibodies to counteract effect
TNF-a
A cytokine but not classified as an interleukin
-released by macrophages and mast cells
-induces multitude of pro inflammatory effects
Pro inflammatory effects
-fever
-cachexia
-fatal shock
-granuloma formation
Cachexia
Muscle wasting
Fatal shock is caused by
Gram negative bacterial infections
Antiflammatory cytokines are
Interleukin 10 lymphokine
Granuloma formation
Goal of inflammatory responses
-limit and control injury (limit blood and infection)
-intervention (clean wound, remove debris, antibiotics)
