Steps of acute inflammatory response |
|
Definition
(1) Cellular Injury/Pathogenic invasion (2) Mast cell degranulation, the activation of three plasma systems, and the release of subcellular components from the damaged cells occur as a consequence (these systems are independent, so that induction of one can result in the induction of the other two). (3)steps 1 and 2 results in vasodilation (erythema, warmth), Vascular permeability (edema), Cellular infiltration (pus), Thrombosis (clots), and Stimulation of nerve endings (pain) |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
cytoplasmic fragments formed from megakaryocyte. They circulate in the bloodstream until vascular injury occurs. Activation results in (1) their interaction with components of the coagulation cascade to stop bleeding and (2) degranulation, releasing biochemical mediators such as serotonin, which has vascular effects similar to those of histamine. |
