Tissues Repair Flashcards
Tissue Repair
- Inflammation
- Organization
- Regeneration
Inflammation Process
Isolation via inflammation provides framework for regeneration and two processes overlap.
Signs: swelling, heat, pain
1. Stimulus ( cell damage)
2. Isolate the injury ( release chemicals)
3. Mobilize all cells ( Mast cells are activated)
Mast Cells
- Histamines–> increases blood vessel permeably by making vessels leaky, causes swelling.
- Prostaglandins
- Heparin: anticogland ( blood to not clot up)
Increases blood flow to area, increases temperature, increase blood vessel permeability ( swelling)
Mast Cell Effects
Increase in temp. –> increase healing
Increase in permeability–> more oxygen and nutrients
Macrophages destroy bacteria , virus cells
Inflammation Steps
- Injury ( damage)
- Chemicals released alert mast cells ( - – Prostaglandins–> pain to site
Histamine–> swelling , increase vessle perm. - Increase temp, blood permutability, reaction rate
- An increase in vessel perm. –> clotting proteins, white blood cells, plasma
Recap:
Injury to cells–> Damaged cell–> mast cells (Histamine, heprain, prosteoglandins)–> Increase blood vessel perm. –> increase in plasma protein, clotting, WBC–> blood clotting forms seal on surface (scab)
Isolation to Injury
- Bleeding Occurs (Injury)
- Mast cells , white blood cells, clotting proteins, plasma proteins
- Blood clot dry’s
Organization (formation of granulation tissues)
- Blood Clot is replaced by growth of capillary that restores blood flow. (granulation tissue: temporary connective tissue forms and is replaced by epithelial)
- Fibroblasts (plasma proteins) build collagen fibers bridge the gap
- Macrophages: devor dead cells, cell fragments, pathogens (clean up)
- Epithelial Tissues grow over the granulation tissue
Regeneration and Fibrosis
- Area matures pulling wound closed as collagen fibers shrink.
- Epithelium divides and thickens under the scab which detaches it
- Fibrocytes lay down dense regular connective tissue (scar tissue) underneath. Parallel running collagen fibers.
