Test 1 chapter 7 Flashcards
very motile first to arrive to site of infection and begin phagocytosis
Contain granulocytes
neutrophils
initiate vasodilation and capillary permeability
neutrophils
increased when there is a bacterial infection
neutrophils
neutrophils are more in common in what type of inflammation
acute inflammation
increase indicated parasitic worm infection
Has minor phagocytosis
eosinophils
mast cells release what to attract eosinophils to site of inflammation
ECF-A
eosinophils release what to help end inflammatory response
histaminase
Also causes damage to cell
histamine initiates what
inflammation
cells that circulate in the blood for a few days
monocytes
when monocytes leave the blood and enter the tissue they change into cells called
macrophages
BIG eaters
do not die after eating something
Macrophages
produce cytokines( suppress further inflammation and initiate healing) and activate adaptive immune system
macrophages
macrophages are most common in what type of inflammation
chronic
3 goals of cells when cell injury occurs
confine damage
kill microorganisms
remove debris
cardinal signs of local inflammation
redness, heat (vasodilation)
swelling (increased vascular permeability)
pain (kinin)
cardinal signs of systemic inflammation
fever
leukocytosis
plasma protein synthesis
increased number of white cells in the blood
leukocytosis
site of acute inflammation
vascular
site of chronic inflammation
connective tissue
cells involved in acute inflammation
neutrophils
platelets
mast cells
cell involved in chronic inflammation
monocytes
macrophages
lymphocytes
proteins activated by tissue damage/infection
Essential to effective inflammatory response
the plasma protein systems
