DAMAGE 2. TRANSUDATE 3. PROLIFERATION INFLAMMATION • Inflammation - a response triggered by damage to living cells/tissues. The inflammatory response is a defense mechanism that evolved in higher organisms to protect them from e.g. infection and injury. VASCULAR RESPONSE DISTURBANCES OF MICROCIRCULATION IN INFLAMMATORY FOCUS CELLULAR RESPONSE TO INFLAMMATION CELLULAR RESPONSE TO INFLAMMATION MACROPHAGES – ACTIVATION AND ACTION ROLE OF MACROPHAGES MACROPHAGES CHEMICAL MEDIATORS OF INFLAMMATION (NO) NITRIC OXIDE IN INFLAMMATION • Nitric oxide (NO) is a signaling molecule that plays a key role in the pathogenesis of inflammation. • It gives an anti-inflammatory effect under normal physiological conditions. On the other hand, NO is considered as a pro-inflammatory mediator that induces inflammation due to over production in abnormal situations. NITRIC OXIDE IN INFLAMMATION • NO is believed to induce vasodilatation in cardiovascular system and furthermore, it involves in immune responses by cytokine- activated macrophages, which release NO in high concentrations. • In addition, NO is a potent neurotransmitter at the neuron synapses and contributes to the regulation of apoptosis. NO is involved in the pathogenesis of inflammatory disorders of the joint, gut and lungs. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a highly specific mitogen for vascular endothelial cells. Five VEGF isoforms are generated as a result of alternative splicing from a single VEGF gene. These isoforms differ in their molecular mass and in biological properties such as their ability to bind to cell-surface heparan-sulfate proteoglycans. The expression of VEGF is potentiated in response to hypoxia, by activated oncogenes, and by a variety of cytokines. VEGF induces endothelial cell proliferation, promotes cell migration, and inhibits apoptosis. In vivo VEGF induces angiogenesis as well as permeabilization of blood vessels, and plays a central role in the regulation of vasculogenesis. STAGES OF ANGIOGENESIS ROLE OF VEGF AND bFGF Deregulated VEGF expression contributes to the development of solid tumors by promoting tumor angiogenesis and to the etiology of several additional diseases that are characterized by abnormal angiogenesis CLASSIFICATION OF INFLAMMATIONS ALTERATIVE INFLAMMATION EXUDATIVE INFLAMMATION PROLIFERATIVE INFLAMMATION ACUTE INFLAMMATION (sometimes as FULMINATING) SUBACUTE, SUBCHRONIC INFLAMMATION CHRONIC INFLAMMATION CHRONIC EXACERBATING (EXACERBATION) INFLAMMATION TERMINOLOGY OF INFLAMMATIONS: TO LATIN OR GREEK NAME OF THE ORGAN ADD THE ENDING - ITIS DIABETES, type 1 – autoimmune mechanism ALTERATIVE INFLAMMATION A GROUP OF INFLAMMATIONS WITH DOMINATION OF INJURY OF TISSUE; CAUSE OF NECROSIS IT RARELY OCCURS IN THE ,,CLEAN”, PURE FORM ACUTE ANTERIOR POLIOMYELITIS – EPIDEMIC HEPATITIS HEINE-MEDINA DISEASE HEINE-MEDINA DISEASE/POLIO • Polio, or called poliomyelitis or infantile paralysis, is an infectious disease caused by the poliovirus • In around 1 percent of infections, poliovirus spreads along certain nerve fiber pathways, preferentially replicating in and destroying motor neurons within the spinal cord, brain stem, or motor cortex. This leads to the development of paralytic poliomyelitis, the various forms of which (spinal, bulbar, and bulbospinal) vary only with the amount of neuronal damage and inflammation that occurs, and the region of the CNS affected.

Status asthmaticus: unremitting attacks due to exposure to previously sensitized antigen; may be fatal, usually in patients with a long history of asthma EXUDATIVE INFLAMMATION CATARRHAL INFLAMMATION INFLAMMATORY POLYPS OF NOSE HYPERTROPHY OF EPITHELIUM IN CHRONIC NOSE DURING CATARRHAL COLITIS A CHRONIC CATARRHAL INFLAMMATION The acute inflammatory response in pericarditis can produce either serous or purulent fluid or a dense fibrinous material Neoplastic, tuberculous, and purulent pericarditis may be associated with large effusions that are hemorrhagic and exudative Prolonged pericarditis may result in persistent accumulation of pericardial fluid which may form a thick coating that surrounds the myocardium causing constrictive pericarditis SUPERFICIAL FIBRINOUS INFLAMMATION FIBRINOUS COR VILLOSUM – PERICARDITIS FIBRINOUS HAIRY HEART PERICARDITIS (MICROSCOPY) EXUDATIVE INFLAMMATION SUPERFICIAL FIBRINOUS INFLAMMATION INFECTIOUS MONONUCLEOSIS FIBRINOUS PERITONITIS INFECTIOUS MONONUCLEOSIS • Infectious mononucleosis is a clinical entity characterized by sore throat, cervical lymph node enlargement, fatigue and fever most often seen in adolescents and young adults and lasting several weeks. • It can be caused by a number of pathogens, but often due to primary Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection. EBV is a γ-herpesvirus that infects at least 90% of the population worldwide. EXUDATIVE INFLAMMATION PROFOUND FIBRINOUS INFLAMMATION UREMIC ENTEROCOLITIS PSEUDOMEMBRANOUS LARYNGOTRACHEITIS UREMIA • Uremia is a clinical syndrome associated with fluid, electrolyte, and hormone imbalances and metabolic abnormalities, which develop in parallel with deterioration of renal function. The term uremia means urine in the blood. • Uremia more commonly develops with chronic kidney disease (CKD), especially the later stages of CKD, but it also may occur with acute kidney injury (AKI) if loss of renal function is rapid. Urea itself has both direct and indirect toxic effects on a range of tissues. UREMIC ENTEROCOLITIS • colitis characterized by hemorrhages in the mucosa, occurring in renal failure, possibly owing to the irritant effect of ammonia formed by breakdown of increased urea in the intestinal secretions. EXUDATIVE INFLAMMATION PROFOUND FIBRINOUS INFLAMMATION FIBRINOUS PNEUMONIA PROFOUND FIBRINOUS COLITIS DIPHTHERIA • Diphtheria is an infection caused by the bacterium Corynebacterium diphtheriae. Signs and symptoms may vary from mild to severe. • They usually start two to five days after exposure. Symptoms often come on fairly gradually, beginning with a sore throat and fever. In severe cases, a grey or white patch develops in the throat. • Complications may include myocarditis, inflammation of nerves, kidney problems, and bleeding problems due to low levels of platelets. In 2015, it resulted in 2,100 deaths EXUDATIVE INFLAMMATION PROFOUND FIBRINOUS INFLAMMATION: DIPHTHERITIC INFLAMMATION (ESCHAROTIC) DIPHTHERITIC ANGINA GASTRITIS CHRONIC HYPERTROPHIC GASTRITIS CHRONIC ATROPHIC GASTRITIS CHRONIC ATROPHIC GASTRITIS WITH INTESTINAL METAPLASIA SYDNEY CLASSIFICATION • Inflammation • Activity • Atrophy • Intestinal Metaplasia • Dysplasia • Helicobacter pylori ULCERATIVE COLITIS • Affects 4 - 12 per 100,000 in U.S., usually whites, peak onset ages 20 - 25 and 70 - 80 years; no gender preference • Almost always rectal involvement at disease onset but may develop rectal sparing and patchiness after treatment or chronic disease, resembling Crohn's colitis ULCERATIVE COLITIS • Symptoms: relapsing, bloody mucoid diarrhea (stringy mucus) with pain / cramps relieved by defecation; lasts days / months, then remission for months / years; initial attack may cause medical emergency for fluid and electrolyte imbalance • Complications: perforation, toxic megacolon (due to toxic damage to muscularis propria and neural plexus with shutdown of neuromuscular function), iliac vein thrombosis, carcinoma, lymphoma This gross appearance is characteristic for ulcerative colitis. The most intense inflammation begins at the lower right in the sigmoid colon and extends upward and around to the ascending colon.

Abstract: Inflammation of the central nervous system can be triggered by endogenous and exogenous stimuli such as local or systemic infection, trauma, and stroke. In addition to neurodegeneration and cell death, alterations in physiological brain functions are often associated with neuroinflammation. Robust experimental evidence has demonstrated that inflammatory cytokines affect the ability of neurons to express plasticity. It has been well-established that inflammation-associated alterations in synaptic plasticity contribute to the development of neuropsychiatric symptoms. Nevertheless, diagnostic approaches and interventional strategies to restore inflammatory deficits in synaptic plasticity are limited. Here, we review recent findings on inflammation-associated alterations in synaptic plasticity and the potential role of the blood–brain interface, i.e., the blood–brain barrier, Citation: Lenz, M.; Eichler, A.; in modulating synaptic plasticity. Based on recent findings indicating that brain stimulation promotes Vlachos, A. Monitoring and plasticity and modulates vascular function, we argue that clinically employed non-invasive brain Modulating Inflammation-Associated stimulation techniques, such as transcranial magnetic stimulation, could be used for monitoring and Alterations in Synaptic Plasticity: modulating inflammation-induced alterations in synaptic plasticity.

  • Inflammation
    Inflammation II. 1 Definitions Inflammation is defined as local reaction of vascularized living tissue to local injury, characterized by movement of fluid and leukocytes from the blood into the extravascular space. According the time frame is divided into two categories: acute and chronic. Function: • destroys, dilutes or walls off injurious agents • one of body’s non-specific defense mechanisms • begins the process of healing and repair 1.1 Acute Inflammation Rapid onset, usually short duration Microscopy • neutrophils dominate • other cellular elements are also involved (monocytes/macrophages, platelets, mast cells) • protein rich exudate, especially fibrin Associations • necrosis • pyogenic bacteria 1.2 Chronic Inflammation Usually long duration, but in some cases may be short. May follow acute inflammation or may have an insiduous onset (without an apparent prelude of acute inflammation). Microscopy • mononuclear cells dominate – lymphocytes – plasma cells (plasmocytes) – monocytes/macrophages • other cellular elements are also involved (eosinophils, neutrophils in active“ inflammation)1 ” • In granulomas are typical Langhans cells, large, multinuclear elements on the periphery of tuberculous granulomas. Nuclei are sometimes arranged in a horseshoe shape formation. Foreign body cells are similar, usually smaller, the horseshape formation of nuclei is not present. Both these elements are modified macrophages. • evidence of healing — fibroblasts, capillaries, fibrosis Associations • long term stimulation of immune system, autoimmunity • viral infections

  • Protective Effects of Zinc-L-Carnosine /Vitamin E on Aspirin- Induced Gastroduodenal Injury in Dogs
    PROTECTIVE EFFECTS OF ZINC-L-CARNOSINE /VITAMIN E ON ASPIRIN- INDUCED GASTRODUODENAL INJURY IN DOGS MASTER’S THESIS Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Master of Science Degree in the Graduate School of the Ohio State University By Mieke Baan, DVM, MVR ***** The Ohio State University 2009 Master’s Examination Committee: Professor Robert G. Sherding, Adviser Professor Stephen P. DiBartola Associate Professore Susan E. Johnson Approved by Adviser Veterinary Clinical Sciences Graduate Program ! Copyright by Mieke Baan 2009 ABSTRACT Zinc plays a role in many biochemical functions, including DNA, RNA, and protein synthesis. The dipeptide carnosine forms a stable complex with zinc, which has a protective effect against gastric epithelial injury in-vitro and in-vivo. This randomized double-blinded placebo-controlled study investigated the protective effects of zinc-L-carnosine in combination with alpha-tocopheryl acetate (vitamin E) on the development of aspirin-induced gastrointestinal (GI) lesions in dogs. Eighteen mixed-breed dogs (mean 20.6 kg) were negative for parasites, and had normal blood work evaluations, and gastroduodenoscopic exams. On days 0 – 35, dogs were treated with 1 tablet (n=6) or 2 tablets (n=6) of 30 mg zinc-L-carnosine/ 30 IU vitamin E q12h PO, or a placebo (n=6). On days 7 – 35, all dogs were given 25 mg/kg buffered aspirin q8h PO. Endoscopy was performed on Days -1, 14, 21, and 35, and GI lesions (hemorrhages, erosions, or ulcers) were scored using a 12-point grading scale. Repeated measures ANOVA was used for statistical evaluation. The significance level was set at p ! 0.05.
