Study Notes
Acute Inflammation Mediators
- Leukotrienes and prostaglandins are cell-derived mediators of acute inflammation
- Bradykinin is a plasma-derived mediator of acute inflammation
- Mast cells are the richest source of histamine in the body
Production of Mediators
- Cytokines, such as IL-1, are produced only in response to offending stimuli such as microbes or substances from necrotic cells
Release of Mediators
- Tissue damage or infection stimulates the release of other mediators such as histamine and production of IL-1
