Produces antibodies; an activated B cell Related to T cells but show no antigen specificity; active against cancer and viral infections Reside throughout the RES; process and present foreign matter to lymphocytes Participate in cell-mediated immunity; modulate immune functions Nonmotile; bound to connective tissue; trigger local inflammatory reactions Small; second most common white blood cell; two types Scarcest type; function in inflammation and allergies; attract white blood cells toward site of infection Mature in bone marrow; part of memory; humoral...
1. The vascular stage of inflammation occurs due to production of inflammatory mediators from an arachidonic acid precursor? A) What two inflammatory mediators are made from the above precursor? B) What effect do corticosteroids have on the production of these inflammatory mediators? C) What effect do NSAIDs have on the production of these inflammatory mediators? D) Can you think of a health consequence if a patient is treated for NSAIDs and have a predisposition for asthma. (You may want to...
MECHANISMS OF SELF DEFENSE: Inflammation, the Inflammatory Response, and Fever Mr. T has recently been diagnosed with a chronic inflammation related to his inflammatory bowel disease. He is 5′11″ and weighs 300 pounds. Question prompts 1. What is Mr. T’s body mass index, and how did you determine this? 2. What is the significance of his BMI based on his diagnosis? 3. How accurate is BMI in athletes? 4. Differentiate between acute and chronic inflammation. 5. What is a granulomatous...
Why people should take anti-inflammatory drugs, when inflammation is a physiological way to defend our organism?
Gram-Negative Bacterial PAMPs 1. Describe the mechanism by which Gram-negative bacteria initiate the inflammatory response and activate the coagulation pathway and the complement pathway. 2. State how this can be both beneficial and harmful to the body.
Question 6 1 pts Inflammation in the brain is considered to be one contributing factor in the progression of Alzheimer's disease. Which of the following mediators of inflammation are activated by Abeta oligomers and plaques? Microglia O Astrocytes O Macrophages ODendrites Dendritic cells
1.All types of inflammatory responses are mediated by the same cell types. Please explain the basic differences between the serous, fibrinous, purulent, acute, chronic and granulomatous types of inflammation including, what activates them, the types of immune cells involved, the final biological outcome and how can they respond to medications. 2.Also give one example of each of the pathological responses involving inflammation and allergies 3. Explain basic differences between allergic and inflammatory responses.
Inflammation induces changes in the endothelial cells of the blood vessel inducing migration of immune cells from the blood vessels into the inflamed tissue. The process of migration is separated into four steps. 1. a) Provide a 1-2 sentence description for each step (rolling adhesion, tight binding, diapedesis, and migration). 2. b) What is the first innate cell type that migrates into the inflamed tissue? The second innate cell type? 3. c) What effector functions do these cells have that...
Injury to endothelial cells lining the arterial wall is believed to initiate the atherosclerotic process. There are lifestyle factors and other chronic diseases that contribute to this initial injury process. You need to communicate this information to the students. In the space below list the lifestyle factor(s) and other conditions that can initiate injury to the endothelial cells.
Acute inflammation involves a variety of cell types including most cells, endothelial cells, neutrophills, macrophages, and fibroblasts. communication and coordination among these cells is affected by ?
