Inflammatory Response 1. Injury / infection 2. Activation of immune cells (PRR/PAMPs) 3. Cytokine release 4. Capillary alterations – vasodilation etc 5. Attraction of neutrophils then monocytes – extravasation 6. Phagocytosis and wound clearance 7. Clotting (not described in this module) Inflammatory Response 1. Injury / infection 2. Activation of immune cells (PRR/PAMPs) 3. Cytokine release 4. Capillary alterations – vasodilation etc 5. Attraction of neutrophils then monocytes – extravasation 6. Phagocytosis and wound clearance 7. Clotting (not described in this module) Dendritic cells – constantly sensing for invaders COVID – cytokine storm in the lungs We have focussed on the skin.....What about the lungs....... VIDEO What do you think would happen in the lungs during infection? COVID was so deadly because of how our immune system responded to it!
