Study Notes
Recruitment of Leukocytes
- White blood cells (WBC) and plasma proteins are recruited to the site of injury during local and systemic inflammation.
- Inflammation is usually localized but can exhibit systemic effects, such as fever, indicating a broader response.
- Rare cases of systemic inflammation, like sepsis, occur during severe bacterial infections.
Removal of the Agent
- Activated WBCs and plasma proteins aim to eliminate the injuring agent.
- Local response is concentrated around the site of damage, while systemic response indicates widespread body inflammation.
Main Characteristics of Inflammation
- Key features include edema, due to fluid and plasma protein exudation, and the migration of activated leukocytes, primarily neutrophils.
- Prominence of innate immunity is evident in immune reactions.
Recognition of Microbes
- Initial step in inflammatory reactions involves recognizing offending agents through receptors on cell membranes.
- Receptors identify microbes and cell damage products, triggering inflammation.
- Different receptors are located at plasma membranes (for extracellular microbes), endosomes (for ingested microbes), and cytosol (for intracellular microbes).
Chronic Inflammation
- Occurs when acute inflammation fails to eliminate the stimulus, leading to prolonged inflammatory response.
- Characterized by increased tissue destruction and presence of lymphocytes and macrophages.
Mechanisms of Tissue Regeneration
- Tissue regeneration depends on intrinsic proliferative capacity and presence of stem cells.
- Cell proliferation is driven by growth factors and the integrity of the extracellular matrix (ECM).
Liver Regeneration
- The liver demonstrates significant regenerative capacity, which occurs through remaining hepatocyte proliferation or repopulation from progenitor cells.
- After major liver injury, residual hepatocytes can compensate, aided by cytokines and growth factors.
Formation of Granulation Tissue
- Granulation tissue forms through fibroblast migration and proliferation, leading to the deposition of loose connective tissue.
- This tissue undergoes transformation into fibrous scar tissue, which provides structural stability albeit not normal function.
Cellular Roles in Tissue Repair
- Epithelial cells respond to growth factors and migrate to cover wounds.
- Endothelial cells and pericytes are involved in angiogenesis, forming new blood vessels.
- Fibroblasts contribute to scar formation by laying down collagen fibers at the injury site.
