Inflammation Flashcards
Characteristics of chronic inflammation: increased number of macrophages lasts for several weeks connective tissue growth lymphocyte infiltration
increased number of macrophages
lasts for several weeks
connective tissue growth
lymphocyte infiltration
Characteristics of acute inflammation: duration of maximum 1 week macrophage infiltration connective tissue growth lymphocytic infiltration
duration of maximum 1 week
It is true about leukocyte adhesion deficiency type 1 (LAD1):
it is a defect of CD11/ CD18 integrins
it is a defect of the selectin receptors
a problem of the membrane component of NADPH oxidases
a problem of the cytoplasmic component of NADPH oxidases
a lack of the MPO-H2O2 system
it is a defect of CD11/ CD18 integrins
Phases of inflammation: proliferation vascular reaction reparation stasis

Shows decreased activity in patients with diabetes mellitus: chemotaxis adhesion phagocytosis wound healing

Negative acute phase proteins: albumin transferrin ceruloplasmin α1 -protease inhibitor
albumin
transferrin
Positive acute phase proteins: albumin transferrin ceruloplasmin α1 -protease inhibitor
ceruloplasmin
Effects of plasmin:
FDP production and vasodilation as a result
it removes the fibrin mesh
activates the complement system by cleaving C3
increases venula permeability
FDP production and vasodilation as a result
it removes the fibrin mesh
activates the complement system by cleaving C3
Plasminogen activator bacterial compounds (eg streptokinase) cellular compounds (eg trypsin) macrophag plasminogen-activator Hageman-factor
bacterial compounds (eg streptokinase)
Hageman-factor
Chemical mediators increasing vascular permeability: vasoactive amines C3a and C5a bradykinin PGI2, TXA2
vasoactive amines
C3a and C5a
bradykinin
Characteristic for chronic inflammation: accumulation of lymphocytes and macrophages angiogenesis vasodilation edema formation
accumulation of lymphocytes and macrophages
angiogenesis
Which deficiency causes recurrent pyogenic infections? deficient antibody production deficient complement function deficient phagocyte function deficient killer T lymphocyte function
deficient complement function
deficient phagocyte function
Effects of bradykinin arteriola dilatation increases in venula permeability plasminogen activation C1q activation
arteriola dilatation
increases in venula permeability
Hageman factor (factor XII) activators collagen plasmin lipopolisaccharid (LPS) C3a
