Q

how do leukocytes destroy a pathogen

A
  1. recognition and attachment to pathogen (pattern recognition receptors, opsonins, cytokine receptors)
  2. engulfment of pathogen (when opsonins are sensed)
  3. killing and degradation of pathogen

25
thrombaxanes
platelet activation and stickiness
26
lipoxygenase
will turn arachidonic acid into leukotrienes
27
leukotrienes
causes most of the inflammation in asthma and allergic rhinitis smooth muscle contraction in the trachea
28
where do anti inflammatory steroids act?
phospholipase A2 - turns membrane phospholipid to arachidonic acid
29
where does aspirin act?
cox
30
how can omega 3s help inflammation?
block the actions of arachidonic acid metabolites by competitively binding inhibit cox; activate resolvins (anti inflammatory)
31
cell derived mediators for acute inflammation
``` performed granules (histamine and serotinin) newly synthesized molecules (aa, ROS, PAF, cytokines, NO) ```
32
plasma protein mediators for acute inflammation
complement activation | factor 7 activation
33
morphology of acute inflammation
serous, fibrinous, purulent, abcess
34
serous inflammation
watery, fluid filled space | burns and viral infections
35
fibrinous inflammation
fibrinous exudate | more serious for prolonged injuries/inflammation that increase blood flow
36
purulent inflammation
purulent exudate | infection with a specific pathogen (pyogenic)
37
abscess
focal collection of pus with a necrotic region surrounded by neutrophils can be replaced with CT (scar)
38
ulcer
local defect on the surface of the tissue from necrosis and shedding mucosa and skin
39
stimuli for chronic inflammation
persistent infections immune mediated inflammatory diseases prolonged exposure to toxic agents metabolic inflammation
40
cell mediators for chronic inflammation
microbes (LPS) and IFN-gamma for classic activation - M1 | cytokines other than IFN gamma for alternative activation
41
classic activation (chronic)
microbial actions | inflammation
42
alternative activation (chronic)
tissue repair, fibrosis | anti inflammatory actions
43
cd4 T cell
promotes inflammation by secreting cytokines
44
cd4 T cell mediation
cd4 cell will release 3 subsets of cytokines, one being IFN gamma which will activate M1 and will release M1 cytokines positive feedback
45
causes of a granuloma
persistent t cell response certain immune mediated diseases sarcoidosis (non caseating)
46
noncaseating granulomas
shaumann bodies - calcium and protein | asteroid bodies - stellate inclusion
47
risk factors of noncaseating granulomas
below the age of 40 black is more susceptible than white can affect lungs, heart, skin, spleen
48
amyloidosis
aggregation of misfolded proteins | alzheimers is most common form
49
risk factors of ammyloidosis
``` older aged males more than females family history kidney dialysis can affect heart, kidneys, liver, spleen, nervous sys ```
50
systemic effects of chronic inflammation
fever, acute phase proteins, leukocytosis
51
diet and inflammation (pathway)
SFA, LPS, TNF can all activate TLR4 which is activated as an innflammatory pathway TLR4 will activate ceramine which will lead to insulin resistance (lipotoxicity)
52
t/f. foods that increase insulin also increase sfa in the blood
true
53
problematic waist to hip ratios
men - more than 1 | women - more than .8
54
which type of body fat is pro inflammatory
visceral
55
two types of tissue repair
regeneration | scar formation
56
labile tissues
cells are always proliferating | bone marrow, skin, gi tract, oral mucosa
57
stable tissues
cells usually in resting phase, can proliferate if necessary | liver, kidney, pancreas
58
permanent tissues
cells are totally out of cell cycle | neurons, cardiac muscle
59
incision wound
longer than they are deep
60
stab wound
deeper than they are long
61
puncture wound
caused by shapr point, not sharp edge
62
chopping wounnd
combination of blunt and sharp characteristics
63
first intention
healing incision wounds | regeneration
64
second intention
healing wider wounds | scar
65
two sections of ECM to repair
basement membrane | interstitial matrix
66
fuctions of ecm
mmechanical support control of cell proliferation scaffolding for tissue renewal establishment of tissue microenviornments
67
steps for scar formation
angiogenesis migration and proliferation (granulation tissue) remodeling - scar
68
factors that influence tissue repair (6)
infection, nutrition, gucocorticoids, poor perfusion, foreign bodies, location
