Question Answer
What are the main cells involved in acute inflammation? polymorph neutrophils, PMNs, and mast cells
What are the main cells involved with chronic inflammation? lymphocytes and plasma cells
What are the cardinal signs of local, acute inflammation? swelling redness warmth pain
Immediate vascular response is mediated by mast cells releasing ____? histamine
What mediator is responsible for permeability of post-capillary venules? histamine
This extravascular fluid is characterized by the following: hypocellular protein poor low specific gravity due to increased hydrostatic pressure, lymphatic obstruction, or decreased oncotic pressure transudate
This extravascular fluid is characterized by the following: cellular protein rice high specific gravity due to increased permeability and inflammation exudate
What are the 6 steps upon neutrophil arrival? 1. margination 2. rolling 3. adhesion 4. transmigration 5. chemotaxis 6. phagocytosis
Diapedesis is mediated by what? PECAM-1
What are 3 endogenous chemotactic factors? leukotriene B4, complement 5a, interleukin-8, Bacterial products
Name two opsonins C3b, IgG
This disorder is due to impaired phagolysosome fusion due to a microtubular defect chediak higashi syndrome
Rolling on endothelial cells is mediated by what? E-selectin and P-selectin "speed bumps"
Tight binding by endothelial cells are mediated by________? ICAM-1 VCAM-1
ight binding by leukocytes is mediated by __________? LFA-1 (integrin)
ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 (involved with tight binding in endothelial cells) are upregulated by _________? TNF and IL-1
Integrin (involved with tight binding in leukocytes) is upregulated by______? C5a and LTB
What 2 mechanisms do leukocytes use to phagocytose microorganisms and tissue debris? -reactive oxygen species -reactive nitrogen species
A deficiency in ____ yields in ability to produce hypochlorous acid and puts one at greater risk for candida infections MPO (myeloperoxidase)
Poor oxygen dependent killing results in what disease? chronic granulomatous disease
Shut down of inflammatory process occurs by what 2 mediators? IL-10 and TGF-B(By M2 Macrophages
This plasma derived mediator is especially important for pain sensation and vasodilation bradykinin
These 3 proteins indicate an acute phase reaction and are produced by______ C reactive protein fibrinogen serum amyloid A (SAA) Liver
Increased _________serum acute phase reactant protein can be used to assess risk of myocardial inflammation and atherosclerotic coronary artery disease. CRP
What are 4 distinctive appearances of inflammation that are determined by the type of tissue and agent involved? serous fibrinous suppurative pseudomembranous
This appearance of inflammation is marked by abundance fibrinogen which polymerizes into a thick fibrin coating fibrinous inflammation
What protein on the leukocyte helps with rolling? sialylated lewis X glycoproteins
If injury persists, how does acute inflammation go on to chronic inflammation? macrophages present antigen to activate CD4 helper T cells, which secrete cytokines that promote chronic inflammation
What are the 4 plasma mediator systems triggered by activation of factor XII (Hageman factor) -kinin cascade -clotting (coagulation) cascade -fibrinolytic system -complement cascade
