Inflammation and Inflammatory Respone

The inflammatory response is stimulated by trauma or infection, inflammation is central to inhibit inflammation and promote healing. Inflammatory dapatmenghasilkan local pain, swelling, heat, red, and change functions.
Inflammation is the response of an organism against pathogens and mechanical alteration in the network, in the form of a series of reactions that occur at the site of tissue injury, such as burns, or infected.


Inflammation or inflammation is one of the main response of the immune system against infection and irritation. Inflammation is stimulated by chemical factors (histamine, bradykinin, serotonin, leukotrienes, and prostaglandins) are released by cells that act as inflammatory mediators in the immune system to protect surrounding tissue from the spread of infection.
Inflammation is the signal-mediated cellular response to insults by infectious agents, toxins, and physical pressure. While acute inflammation is essential for the immune response, chronic inflammation that may cause tissue damage (autoimmune, neurodegenerative, cardiovascular disease).

Symptoms and signs of inflammation varies with fever (pyrogenesis), redness (rubor), pain swelling (turgor), (dolor), and tissue / organ dysfunction (functio laesa).
Inflammation is the sequence of events:
■ stimulation by trauma or acute phase reaction pathogens →
■ platelet adhesion, vasoconstriction of the efferent vessels
■ cytokine-induced vascular dilation of the afferent (vasodilatation causes increased blood flow (redness, local heat) for infected / damaged area
■ activation of the complement system, coagulation, fibrinolytic system, and kinin systems
■ endothelial leukocyte adhesion cascade gap increases the permeability of blood vessels and allow extravasation of serum proteins (exudate) and leukocytes (neutrophils → → → lymphocytes macrophages) with resulting tissue swelling
■ phagocytosis of foreign material with the formation of pus
The inflammatory response is part of the innate immune response, and employs mobile agents and plasma-derived (path):
Complement system ● ● ● complementary system of interferons (IFN) ● interferon (IFN) ● cytokines, lymphokines, monokines ● cytokines, lymphokines, monokines
● prostaglandins and leukotrienes - arachidonic acid derivatives ● prostaglandins and leukotrienes - arachidonic acid derivatives
● platelet activating factor (PAF) ● platelet activating factor (PAF)
Histamine histamine ● ● ● kinins (bradykinin → pain) ● kinins (bradykinin → pain)
Pain evokes proinflammatory mediators, including cytokines, chemokines, protons, nerve growth factor, and prostaglandin, which is produced by attacking leukocytes or local cell.

§  Acute phase proteins fluctuate in response to tissue injury and infection. They synthesized (by hepatocytes) respond to pro-inflammatory cytokines and include: ● C-reactive protein (CRP), mannose-binding protein, complement factors, ● alpha-1 acid glycoprotein, alpha 1-antitrypsin ●, alpha 1-antichymotrypsin, ● alpha 2-macroglobulin, alpha 2-macroglobulin ●, ● serum amyloid P component (SAP, amyloid), haptoglobins (alpha-2-globulins), ceruloplasmin, complement components C3, C4, coagulation factors (fibrinogen, prothrombin, factor VIII, factor von Willebrand factor, plasminogen) ● ferritin

§  Pro-inflammatory cytokines including IL-1, IL-6, IL-8, TNF-α (alpha tumor necrosis factor), and TNF-β (lymphotoxin α, LT). In response to infection, macrophages secrete IL-1 and TNFs, the broad spectrum of cytokines that stimulate the inflammatory response of neutrophils, fibroblasts, and endothelial cells.Fibroblasts and endothelial cells respond to IL-1 and TNF to recruit more immune cells to sites of inflammation.

Pain: When tissue destroyed or attacked by leukocytes in inflammation, many mediators are delivered by circulation and / or released from the population and migrated cells on the site. Mediator Proalgesic including proinflammatory cytokines, chemokines, protons, nerve growth factor, and prostaglandin, which is produced by attacking leukocytes or cell population. Mediator analgesic, against pain, also produced in inflamed tissues.These include anti-inflammatory cytokines and opioid peptides. Interactions between leukocyte-derived opioid peptides and opioid receptors may cause potent, clinically relevant inhibition of pain (analgesic).

Opioid receptors are present on the tip of the peripheral sensory neurons. Opioid peptides are synthesized in circulating leukocytes, which migrate to inflamed tissues directed by chemokines and adhesion molecules.Under conditions of stress or in response to releasing agent (eg, corticotropin-releasing factor, cytokine, noradrenaline), leukocytes can secrete opioid. They activate peripheral opioid receptors and produces analgesia by inhibiting sensory nerve stimulation and / or release of excitatory neuropeptides. The concept of pain generation by mediators released from leukocytes and analgesia by immune-derived opioids.

Inflammation has three important role in resistance to infection:
§  allows the addition of effector molecules and cells to the site of infection to improve the performance of macrophages
§  provides a barrier to prevent the spread of infection
§  sparked the repair process for damaged tissue.
Inflammatory response can be recognized from the pain, skin bruising, fever, etc., caused by changes in blood vessels in the area of ​​infection:
§  enlargement of the diameter of blood vessels, accompanied by an increase in blood flow in the area of ​​infection. It can cause skin looks bruising redness and decreased blood pressure, especially in small vessels.
§  activation of adhesion molecules to glue endotelia with blood vessels.
§  the combination of the decline in blood pressure and activation of adhesion molecules, will allow white blood cells to the endothelium and migrate into the tissue. This process is known as extravasation.
Parts of the body become inflamed have the following signs
§  Rubor (redness) occurred because the blood flow into the local microsomal on where inflammation.
§  Calor (heat) because more blood is supplied to the place inflammation of the channeled into the normal area.
§  Dolor (pain) due to swelling of the tissues resulting in increased local pressure and also because there are expenses substance histamine and other bioactive chemicals.
§  Tumor (swelling) expenditure ciran-fluid into the interstitial tissue.
§  Functio laesa (change function) is the disruption of the function of organs

Mechanisms of Inflammation can be divided into two phases:
§  Vascular changes
Vascular response at the site of injury is a fundamental for acute inflammatory reaction. These changes include changes in blood flow and vascular permeability. Changes in blood flow due to local arterial dilatation resulting in the increase of blood flow (hypermia) followed by slowing blood flow. As a result, the part becomes red and hot. White blood cells will be gathered along the walls of blood vessels by sticking. Vessel walls become loose arrangement allowing white blood cells out through the vessel wall.White blood cells act as a defense system against attacks for foreign objects.


§  The formation of inflammatory fluid
Increased vascular permeability is accompanied by the release of white blood cells and plasma proteins in the network is called exudation. Fluids are the basis for the swelling. Swelling causes stress and pressure on the nerve cells, causing pain (Mansjoer, 1999).
The cause of inflammation may be caused by mechanical (puncture), Chemical (histamine causes alerti, excess stomach acid can cause irritation), thermal (temperature), and Microbe (infectious disease.
Stages 3-phase inflammatory
1.      Changes in the cells and circulatory system, there are injuries on the body of the narrowing of the blood vessels to control bleeding, so terlepaslah histamine use to increase blood flow to the injured area. At the same time dikelurkan quinine to increase capillary permeability which would facilitate the entry of protein, fluid, and leukocytes to supply the injured area. After sufficient local blood flow decreased to maintain leukocytes to remain in the area of ​​injury.
2.      release of exudates, occurs after eating bakteri2 leukocytes in the area of injury, then exudate removed.
3.      regeneration, the recovery phase of tissue repair or the formation of new tissue.

Inflammatory Response
During the early stages of infection, cytokines produced when the immune defenses bawaandiaktifkan. Rapid release of cytokines in the infection start a new response with far-reaching consequences that include inflammation.

One of the earliest produced cytokines tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), which is synthesized by activated monocytes and macrophages. These cytokines alter capillary nearby so that the circulation of white blood cells can easily be brought to the site of infection. TNF-α can also bind to receptors on infected cells and stimulate antiviral response. Within seconds, a series of signals initiated that leads to cell death, an attempt to prevent the spread of infection.

There are four typical signs of inflammation: erythema (redness), heat, swelling, and pain. This is a consequence of increased blood flow and capillary permeability, the influx of phagocytic cells, and tissue damage. Increased blood flow is caused by a narrowing of the capillaries that carry blood from the infected area, and causes swelling of the capillary network. Erythema and increased capillary constriction accompany tissue temperature. In addition, increased capillary permeability, cells and fluids that allow to leave and enter the surrounding tissue. This fluid has a higher protein content than is usually found in the tissue fluid, causing swelling.

Another feature is the presence of inflammatory immune cells, mononuclear phagocytes mostly, who are interested in the infected area by cytokines. Neutrophils are one of the earliest types of phagocytic cells that go to the site of infection, and the classic signs of inflammatory response (illustration). These cells are abundant in the blood, and usually absent from the network. Together with infected cells, dendritic cells, and macrophages, they produce cytokines that can be formed in response to infection, and also modulate adaptive response can follow.

The precise nature of the inflammatory response depends on the virus and infected tissue. The virus does not kill cells - noncytopathic virus - does not cause a strong inflammatory response. Because the cells and proteins of the inflammatory response is derived from the blood stream, network with access to blood does not have destruction associated with inflammation. However, the result of an infection such 'special' sites - the brain, for example - may be very different compared to other tissues.
One important component is the 'inflammasome' - a very large cytoplasmic structures with properties and initiator receptor signaling patterns (eg, MDA-5 and RIG-I). Recent experimental findings indicate that the inflammasome is very important in the innate immune response against influenza virus infection, and pulmonary pathology moderator on influenza pneumonia.
