25
Q

general term for swelling

A

edema

26
Q

maintain a “colloid osmotic pressure”

A

Plasma proteins

27
Q

(e.g. heart failure)
and/or colloid pressure (decresased protein synthesis/retention)
pushes out more fluid (transudate) into tissue bed

A

Dysregulation of hydrostatic pressure

28
Q

causes endothelial cells to separate

A

inflammation

29
Q

excess of fluid in the interstitial or serous cavities

A

edema

30
Q

<1.012 gravity
low protein content
ultrafiltrate of blood plasma

A

Transudate

31
Q

> 1.020 gravity high protein concentration,
alteration in the normal permeability of small blood vessels

A

Exudate

32
Q

recruited from the blood
into the extravascular tissue

A

leukocytes

33
Q

predominate in the
inflammatory infiltrate during the first 6 to
24 hours.

A

neutrophils

34
Q

more numerous in the blood
respond more rapidly to chemokines
may attach more firmly to the adhesion molecules
short-lived, they die by apoptosis and disappear
within 24 to 48 hours.

A

neutrophils

35
Q

leukocyte recruitment events

A

margination
rolling
activation
adhesion
transmigration
chemotaxis
phagocytosis
killing

36
Q

leukocyte accumulation at the periphery of vessels.
Fluid leaves the vessel (exudate)
Leukocytes are pushed out of the
central axial column

A

Margination

37
Q

◼ Leukocytes tumble on the endothelial
surface, transiently sticking along the way.
◼ This weak and transient adhesion
◼ Enables leukocytes to slow down and travel
along the endothelial surface

A

Rolling

38
Q

Integrin — by chemokines
Chemotaxis

A

Activation

39
Q

chemotactic cytokines which
support firm adhesion to endothelial cell

A

Chemokines

40
Q

movement of a motile cell or organism, or part of one, in a direction corresponding to a gradient of increasing or decreasing concentration of a particular substance.

A

Chemotaxis

41
Q

Proteins that function mechanically, by attaching the cell cytoskeleton to the extracellular matrix (ECM), and biochemically, by sensing whether adhesion has occurred

A

Integrins

42
Q

mediated by selectin
family expressed on leukocyte cell
surfaces interacting with their ligands on
endothelial cell

A

Adhesion

43
Q

selectin family

A

◼ E selectin (endothelium)
◼ P selectin (platelets, endothelium)
◼ L selectin (leukocytes)

44
Q

leukocytes migrate through the
vessel wall primarily by squeezing
between cells at intercellular junctions
(diapedesis)

A

Transmigration

45
Q

leukocytes migrate toward sites of infection or injury
locomotion oriented along a chemical gradient

A

Chemotaxis

46
Q

process of coating a particle
Coated microbes are recognized by
receptors on phagocytes

A

Leukocyte Activation
(opsonization)

47
Q

◼ The process of engulfment of solid
particulate material by cells
◼ responsible for eliminating the injurious
agent

A

Phagocytosis

48
Q

3 interrelated steps of phagocytosis

A

Recognition and Attachment
Engulfment
Killing of Degradation

49
Q

◼ Involves the particle
to be ingested by
the leukocyte
◼ Foreign objects
coated with
opsonins IgG and
C3b which attach to
receptors on
polymorph surface

A

Recognition and
Attachment

50
Q
  • Cell membrane fuses around an object
  • this gives rise to ‘regurgitation during feeding’ and enzymatic damage to surrounding tissue
A

Engulfment

51
Q

-H2O2, hypohalous acid (HOC1) produced by myeloperoxidase and superoxides kill bacteria.
-After phagocytosis, neutrophils undergo apoptosis and are ingested by macrophages

A

Killing of Degradation
