1
Tutorial 1 Inflammation and cellular responses
2
Inflammation Is a protective response The body’s response to injury Interwoven with the repair process
3
Inflammation Types –Acute (sec, mins, hrs) –Chronic (days, weeks, months, yrs)
4
Causes of inflammation Bacterial Viral Protozoal Metazoal Fungal Immunological Tumours Chemicals, toxins etc Radiation
5
Acute inflammation
6
Inflammation The Cardinal Signs of Acute Inflammation RUBOR CALOR TUMOR FUNCTIO LAESA
7
Cardinal signs of inflammation
13
Inflammation The basis of the five cardinal signs Increased blood flow due to vascular dilatation gives redness and heat. Increased vascular permeability gives oedema causing tissue swelling. Certain chemical mediators stimulate sensory nerve endings giving pain. Nerves also stimulated by stretching from oedema. Pain and swelling result in loss of function.
14
The process of inflammation
15
Components of acute and chronic inflammation
16
Local manifestations of acute inflammation
17
Leukocyte migration in inflammation
18
Molecules modulating endothelial-neutrophil interactions
19
Chemical mediators of inflammation (local and systemic)
20
Plasma proteases
21
The complement system
22
Arachidonic acid metabolites HETE = hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid HPETE = hydroperoxyeicosatetraenoic acid
23
Cytokines (IL-1 and TNF)
24
Nitric oxide (NO)
25
Effects of inflammation and their major mediators Vasodilation: Prostaglandins, NO Increased vascular permeability: Histamine, serotonin, C3a, C5a, bradykinin, Leukotrienes C4, D4, E4, platelet activating factor Chemotaxis, leukocyte activation: C5a, lekotriene B4, bacterial products, chemokines (IL-8) Fever: IL-1, IL-6, TNF, prostaglandins Pain: Prostaglandins, bradykinin Tissue damage: Neutrophil and macrophage lysosomal enzymes, oxygen metabolites NO
26
Chronic inflammation
27
Cells of the chronic inflammatory response Lymphocytes Monocytes/ macrophages Plasma cells
28
Maturation of circulating monocytes to macrophages
29
Macrophage-lymphocyte interactions in chronic inflammation
30
Granulomatous inflammation Bacterial: TB, Leprosy, Syphillis, cat-scratch disease Parasitic: Schistosomiasis Fungal: Histoplasma, blastomycosis, cryptococcus Inorganics, metals, dusts: Silicosis, berrylliosis Foreign body Unknown: Sarcoidosis
31
Granulomatous inflammation: tissue effects
32
Healing and repair
33
The cell cycle
34
The major components of the extracellular matrix (ECM) required for healing and repair
35
Major growth factors in wound healing
36
Critical steps in angiogenesis
37
Wound healing: critical steps
38
Outcome of healing and repair
