increases collagen strength and helps in building proteins in the body and improves wound healing -
Answers vitamin c
mediators that enable blood vessels to dilate and become more permeable during the vascular phase of
inflammation - Answers inflammatory
elevated WBC with 90% neutrophils indicates __________ infection - Answers bacterial
primary wound - Answers -Clean laceration that requires simple re-epithelialization when edges are
approximated
,•Example: Surgical Laceration
secondary wound - Answers -A wound with a large gap in tissue; some of the tissue has been gouged out
•Example: Decubitus Ulcer
CRP - Answers -A key acute phase, protein secreted by the liver, that is both pro-inflammatory, and anti-
inflammatory.
- identifies foreign material for the immune system
- activates the complement system
- stimulates other inflammatory cytokinesis
- CRP level is elevated in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus.
- A complete blood count with differentials often reveals anemia, leukopenia, and thrombocytopenia.
inflammatory mediators of the WBC - Answers - Prostaglandins
- Leukotrienes
- Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF-alpha)
- Interleukins (ils)
basophils - Answers generated and released by the bone marrow in response to many inflammatory
reactions, particularly parasitic infection
• Generated from myeloblasts
Eosinophils - Answers released during and allergic or parasitic infection
• Generated from myeloblasts
, Neutrophils - Answers make up 60 - 70% of the WBCs in circulation
• first responders
• antigens, epinephrine and corticosteroids stimulate generations and release of neutrophils in the
blood stream
• Mature Neutrophils - Polymorphonuclear Leukocytes
- Segmented, multilobed nucleus - Segs
• Immature Neutrophils
- Band like - Bands
- Released in severe acute infection or inflammation due to the bone marrow not being able to produce
mature neutrophils fast enough
Monocytes - Answers make up 3-7% circulating WBC
Main Function is Phagocytosis
• generated from monoblasts
• enter tissue, mature into macrophages found in large quantities in the spleen and other organs
(Macrophages)
Erythrocyte - Answers Typically, a biconcave disc without a nucleus. Contains the pigment hemoglobin,
which imparts the red color to blood, and transport oxygen and carbon dioxide to and from the tissues.
Life Expectancy: 120 days
Location of disposal: Spleen removes aged, lysed, and dead cells from circulation
