4 signs of inflammation
redness, pain, heat, swelling
goal of inflammation
dispose of microbes/ toxins / foreign materials Occurs at the site of injury Prevents the spread Prepare for repair Restore homeostasis
stages of inflammation
Increases permeability Allows
antibodies and clotting factors to leave the blood
Vasodilation Allows
more blood into an area
-Helps remove microbial toxins and dead cells
Factors that cause vasodilation and increased
permeability:
Histamine, Kinins, prostaglandins, leukotrienes, Complement
Histamine:
Kinins: Type of molecule: \_\_\_\_\_\_\_ Induce \_\_\_\_\_\_ and increase \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ Act as \_\_\_\_\_\_\_ agent phagocytes Ex: \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_
Type of molecule: Polypeptides
Induce vasodilation and increase permeability
Act as chemotaxic agent phagocytes
Ex: bradykinin
Prostaglandins:
Type of molecule: _____
Released by _________
Stimulate emigration of ________
Type of molecule: Lipid
Released by damaged cells
Stimulate emigration of phagocytes
Leukotrienes:
_______ and ____ cells produced
Increase ______
Basophils and mast cells produced
Increase permeability
Complement:
Stimulate _______ release
Attract _______
Promote _________
Stimulate histamine release
Attract neutrophils
Promote Phagocytosis
Clotting factors move into tissues
- Fibrinogen converted to fibrin–>Forms fibrin mesh= Localizes and traps invading organisms/ Blocks spread of organism
Within 1hour of start of inflammatory process: _____ appear
Phagocytes
Inflammation:
Neutrophils _____ to blood vessel wall with increased ______ and attempt to destroy via _______
Neutrophils stick to blood vessel wall with increased blood flow and attempt to destroy via phagocytosis
Inflammation:
Inflammation: Redness Large amount of blood in \_\_\_\_\_\_ Local temperatures \_\_\_\_\_ Metabolic reactions \_\_\_\_\_\_ More heat \_\_\_\_\_\_
Large amount of blood in damaged area
Local temperatures increase
Metabolic reactions speed up
More heat released
Inflammation: Swelling
Increased _______
More ____ in the area
Increased permeability
More fluid in the area
Inflammation: Pain
Symptom of inflammation–
neuron injury or increased pressure (edema)
Fever: \_\_\_\_\_\_\_ increase body temperature Trigger release of \_\_\_\_\_\_\_ (cause fever) Helps to inhibit the \_\_\_\_\_ of some microbes Helps to speed up body \_\_\_\_\_\_ Aids in \_\_\_\_\_\_
Bacteria toxins increase body temperature
Trigger release of interleukin-1 (cause fever)
Helps to inhibit the growth of some microbes
Helps to speed up body reactions
Aids in repair
2 components of inflammation
vascular reaction
cellular reaction
Acute inflammation=
rapid onset / short duration / emigration of
neutrophils
Chronic Inflammation=
long duration / lymphocyte involvement /
proliferation of blood vessels / tissue necrosis
Vascular changes purpose=
Maximize movement of plasma proteins and appropriate circulating cells into the site of injury or infection
HOW?? Vasodilation / Increased capillary permeability
Vasodilation:
Early ________
_______ involved first, followed by opening of new ____
Induced by variety of mediators (_____ / _____)
RESULT:
Increased ______ which increases ______ and _____ of tissue
Early manifestation
Arterioles involved first, followed by opening of new capillary beds
Induced by variety of mediators (histamine / nitric oxide)
RESULT:
Increased blood flow which increases redness and warmth of tissue
