Leukocyte granules
________ contains substance capable of damaging and killing bacteria:
Burns
________) causes endothelial cell necrosis and detachment that affects blood vessels.
Chemoattractants
________ (chemokines) and cytokines affect adhesion and transmigration.
Integrins
________ are converted from low- affinity to high- affinity forms by chemokines.
Inflammation
________: response of vascularized tissue that delivers leukocytes and molecules of host defense from the circulation to the sites of and cell damage in order to eliminate the offending agents.
Pus
________: purulent inflammatory exudate rich in neutrophils and cell debris.
histamine exposure
After ________, P- selectin is rapidly translocated to the cell surface.
vascular permeability
Increased ________ causes exudation of protein- rich fluid.
Edema
________: excess fluid in interstitial tissue or body cavities.
Vascular dilation
________ leading to an increase in blood flow.
Necrosis
________: neutrophils (6 to 24 hours), replaced by monocytes (24 to 48 hours)
Phagocytosis
________ (to eat and destroy): engulfment of foreign materials by phagocytic cells.
Transudate
________: excess extravascular fluid with low protein content.
Chemotaxis
________: movement of leukocytes towards the site of inflammation.
Exudate
________: inflammatory extravascular fluid with cellular debris and high protein concentration.
Vasodilation + fluid loss
________= increased blood viscosity and increased concentration of red blood cells= stasis.
Chemotactic factors
________: certain chemical substances and certain bacterial products that are able to attract leukocytes towards the site of inflammation.
P selectin
________: expressed on platelets and endotheium.
ultrafiltrate of blood plasma
A(n) ________ resulting from elevated fluid pressures or diminished plasma osmotic forces.
L selectin
________: expressed on leukocytes.
Bacterial infections
neutrophils
Viral infections
lymphocytes
Allergic reactions
increased eosinophils
Necrosis
neutrophils (6 to 24 hours), replaced by monocytes (24 to 48 hours)
E-selectin
expressed on endothelium
P-selectin activated by
histamine and thrombin
E-selectin activated by
IL-1 and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)
immunoglobulin superfamily on endothelial cells
intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (VCAM-1)
Transmigration (diapedesis)
crawling of leukocytes between endothelial cells and squeezing along the intercellular junctions and through basement membrane into extracellular space
Phagocytosis (to eat and destroy)
engulfment of foreign materials by phagocytic cells
