This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: Answers_Inflammation, clotting factors entering the tissue causing fibrin clots to form results in localizes the infection, clotting factors entering the tissue causing fibrin clots to form results in stops bleeding, Mechanism and Benefits of Inflammation mechanisms Adhesion molecules are activated on the surface of the endothelial cells on the inner wall of the capillaries., Mechanism and Benefits of Inflammation mechanisms Smooth muscles around larger blood vessels contract to slow the flow of blood through the capillary beds at the infected or injured site., antibody molecules entering the tissue to help to remove or block the action of microbes result causes agglutination of microbes, Plasma flows out of the blood into the tissue. leads to antibody molecules entering the tissue to help to remove or block the action of microbes, Mechanism and Benefits of Inflammation mechanisms The endothelial cells that make up the wall of the smaller blood vessels contract., Corresponding molecules called integrins on the surface of leukocytes attach to these adhesion molecules. benefits Diapedesis occurs. Leukocytes flatten and squeeze through the space between the endothelial cells and enter tissue., Lysozyme, cathelicidins, and defensins enter the tissue result kills a variety of microbes, Vasodilation occurs. The space between the endothelial cells increases resulting in increased capillary permeability. benefits Plasma flows out of the blood into the tissue., clotting factors entering the tissue causing fibrin clots to form results in chemotactically attracts phagocytes, proteins of the complement pathways entering the tissue to help remove microbes result leads to MAC lysis of cells, Plasma flows out of the blood into the tissue. leads to transferin entering the tissue, antibody molecules entering the tissue to help to remove or block the action of microbes result blocks attachment of microbes to host cells, neutrophils, monocytes, and eosinophils monocytes differentiate into macrophages and dendritic cells, immune killing of infected cells and cancer cells; production of cytokines examples cytotoxic T-lymphocytes (CTLs) and NK cells kill infected cells and cancer cells, Diapedesis occurs. Leukocytes flatten and squeeze through the space between the endothelial cells and enter tissue. leads to immune killing of infected cells and cancer cells; production of cytokines, increased phagocytosis WBCs involved neutrophils, monocytes, and eosinophils, antibody molecules entering the tissue to help to remove or block the action of microbes result MAC cytolysis of cells, antibody molecules entering the tissue to help to remove or block the action of microbes result blocks viral adsorption to host cells
