Neutrophils and Edema
Recognition of Injury¶
- Cell For microbes
TLR on Macrophages
- Intracellular Receptor of Cell damage
- Fc receptors in Leukocytes
- Complement Proteins
Mediators Of Acute Inflamamtion¶
Activate and Mediate Neutrophil and Vascular Permiability
- Toll Like REceptors On MAcrophages(Microbial Injury)

| Prostoglandins | Leukotrines |
|---|---|
| PGD2.PE2 - Arteriole Vasodilation,increase capillary permeability | LTC4,LTD4,LTE4 - Constriction of Arteriole,Increased Capillary Permiability (Eg:Montelukast a LT Antagonists) |
| PGE2 - Fever and Pain | |
| PGI2 - Arteriole Dilation , stops Platelet agrregation | |
| TXA2 - Vascular Constriction ,Promote Platelet Aggregation | LTB4 - Neutrophil Chemotaxis |
-
Complements(Circulationg Proteins)
Activation of Complement
- Classical Pathway(IgG or IgM)
- Alternative Pathway (Microbial products)
- MBL(MBL binding to MAnnose of Microbes) > C3a,C5a - mast cell degranulation > C5a - Chemotaxis of Neutrophils > C3b - opsin > MAC - lyse bacteria by holes
-
Mast Cells (PArasitic or Allergic)
Activation of Mast cells
- Tissue Trauma
- C3a and C5a
- IgE cross-linking > Activation of mast cells releases Histamine, Heparin and Activates Leukotriene secretion (LTB4,LTC4.LTD4,LTE4) > Arteriole Vasodilation and Capillaries Permeability6 by Heparin
-
Hageman Factor
inactive Pro-inflammatory protein, activated by Collagen and subendothelium kinin system activation,coagulation and Fibrinolytic system activation
Pharmacology of Inflammation
- NSAID's - irreversibly acetylation of COX-1,2 inhibit Prostaglandin and Leukotriene production
- Steroid - Inhibit production of Phospholoipase,COX- 1 Enzymes
- Leukotriene Inhibitors
- Leukotriene Antagonist - Montelukast
Factors that Recruits Neutrophils¶
- C5a(Complement)
- LTB4(Mastcells,Arachidonic Acid pathway)
- IL-8
- Bacterial Products
Sign of Acute Inflammation¶
- Redness(rubor) - Increased Arteriole dilation by Histamines,PGI2,PGD2,PGE2 ,bradykinin
- Warm - increased blood supply (Vasodilation of Arteriole)
- Swelling(tumor) - Capillary leakage by Histamine,LTC4,LTD4,LTE4, Endothelial damage
- Pain(dolor) - Bradykinin.PGE2
- Fever - IL-1,TNF(Hypothalamus - COX-1,2 activity increase PGE2)
