Module 3 inflammatory cells involved in inflammatory response (histamine) Chemical mediators chemicals secreted by cells and injured tissue that are. Chemotaxis phenomenon that guides wbcs to side of injury. Exudate fluid build up outside of a vessel, high protein content, and various. Leukocyte wbc, neutrophil predominates in acute inflammation. Leukocytosis transient increase in # of wbc in blood. Monocyte/macrophage wbc, these cells finish off what the neutrophils begin and. Phagocytosis a process when a cell takes things into itself for destruction (a. Transudate in this case fluid contains little to no proteins or cells, due to hydrostatic pressure or osmotic pressure in blood vessel. Inflammation: neutrophil can engulf foreign particles) continue to clean up debris. After tissues are injured, a series of reactions will occur (inflammatory reaction) repair/replace of damaged tissue. These reactions destroy/limit the spread of injurious agent and allow for. )nflammation is dynamic a chain of reactions which succeed or overlap.
