Tissue Repair Clot Clean up Scab Restored blood supply Granulation Regeneration and fibrosis Fibrous tissue matures Figure 4.12a
Barrier penetration / Tissue Trauma Causes inflammation, characterized by: Vasodilation Dilation of blood vessels Increase in vessel permeability Redness, heat, swelling (edema), and pain
Tissue repair - The inflammatory response Histamine is released from mast cells in the C.T. And causes vasodilation. Location of mast cells
Chemokines cause leukocyte extravasation
Leukocyte jobs 1. Neutrophils - 2. Macrophages - 3. Dead cells and fluid leaked from the capillaries may accumulate as pus in the area before it is absorbed by the body
