Inflammation Flashcards
Vasodilation. Increased vascular permeability. Endothelial activation
Histamine
Secreted by mast cells and leukocytes
Prostaglandins and leukotrienes
Vasodilation, pain, fever
Prostaglandins
Increased vascular permeability. Chemotaxis. Leukocyte adhesion and activation
Leukotrienes
Secreted by macrophages, mast and endothelial cells
Cytokines (TNFalpha, IL-1, IL-6)
Local: endothelial activation (expressing adhesion molecules)
Systemically: Fever, metabolite abnormalities, hypotension (shock)
TNFalpha, IL-1, IL-6
Produced by leukocytes and activated macrophages
Chemokines
Chemotaxis. Leukocyte activation
Chemokines
Produced by leukocytes and mast cells.
PAF
Vasodilation. Increased vascular permeability. Leukocyte adhesion. Chemotaxis. Degranulation. Oxidative burst
PAF
Plasma (produced in liver)
Complement and Kinin
Leukocyte chemotaxis and activation, direct target killing (MAC), vasodilation (mast cell stimulation)
Complement
Increased vascular permeability. Smooth muscle contraction. Vasodilation. Pain.
Kinins
Histamine, serotonin, and lysosomal enzymes are _____________ cell products
preformed
NO produced by _______
macrophages
Secreted by T-lymphocytes
IL-17
Recruits neutrophils and monocytes
T-17
Similar to TNF but greater role in fever
IL-1
Systemic effects (acute phase protein response)
IL-6
Stimulates expression of endothelial adhesion molecules and secretion of other cytokines. Causes systemic effects
TNF
Recruitment of leukocytes to sites of inflammation. Migration of cells in normal tissues
Chemokines
Prostanglands, leukotrienes, lipoxine, and thromboxane are __________ derivatives
Archidonic Acid
_____________ inhibit phospholipase
Steroids
________ and _________ inhibit cyclooxygenase COX1 and COX2 inhibitors
Aspirin
Ibuprofen
