Summary Introduction

Introduction:

Inflammation is the primary physical sign of the injured or infected wound. The consequence is direct and it acts by eliminating the infection via the innate response. The macrophages, leukocytes, and mast cells are recruited to the site after the platelets have released the components for forming a blood clot.

Students have asked these similar questions
The inflammatory process involves Select one: O A. Passive immunity, MHC proteins, and interferon. B. Increased blood flow, phagocytes, and blood clotting. C. Complement, lymphocytes, and antigens. D. Barriers to entry, tonsils, and fever.
Which of the following is not a characteristic of inflammation? a. inactivation of macrophages b. increased vascular permeability and edema c. vasodilation d. pain e. influx of leukocytes.
During the chemotaxis phase of the inflammatory response,a. C-reactive protein is secreted by damaged parenchymal cells in the tissue, which attracts neutrophils, which secrete leukotrienes and prostaglandins to attract macrophages; a purulent exudate is formed.b. Band cells respond to hyperthermia by producing TNF-α and interleukins, which then cause a left shift that results in the accumulation of neutrophils within the tissue.c. Damaged parenchymal cells release prostaglandins and leukotrienes to attract macrophages, causing a left shift and the formation of a purulent exudate.d. Cytokines, such as TNF-α, are released by damaged parenchymal cells, while leukotrienes and prostaglandins produced by neutrophils cause smooth muscle constriction and the further accumulation of leukocytes.
