Chronic inflammation is characterized by prolonged inflammation lasting weeks to years, involving simultaneous tissue injury, healing through fibrosis, and continuing inflammation. It is driven by infiltration of mononuclear cells like macrophages, lymphocytes, and plasma cells, along with tissue destruction by their inflammatory products and repair through angiogenesis and fibrosis. Chronic inflammation can result from acute inflammation that is not resolved or from persistent infections, immune-mediated diseases, prolonged toxic exposures, or recurrent injury interrupting the healing process. The dominant cells in chronic inflammation are macrophages and lymphocytes, which secrete cytokines and antibodies driving further inflammation in many autoimmune and chronic diseases.
This document discusses chronic inflammation. It defines chronic inflammation as a prolonged process where tissue destruction and inflammation occur simultaneously. Chronic inflammation can result from acute inflammation becoming chronic, recurrent acute inflammation, or starting as a chronic process. It is characterized by mononuclear cell infiltration, tissue destruction, and proliferative changes. The main cell types involved are macrophages, lymphocytes, plasma cells, and sometimes giant cells. Chronic inflammation can lead to risks like cardiovascular disease and cancer if left unchecked.
Chronic inflammation can last for months or years and is driven by macrophages and lymphocytes. It can be caused by persistent infections, autoimmune reactions, and foreign bodies. Activated macrophages and T cells secrete cytokines and growth factors that lead to tissue damage and fibrosis over time. Macrophages and T cells also interact and stimulate each other, prolonging the inflammatory response. Granulomas are clusters of macrophages that form in response to chronic inflammation and surround foreign materials to isolate them.

Hyperplasia is an increase in the number of cells in an organ or tissue. It can be physiologic, such as during pregnancy, or pathologic, such as with excessive hormone stimulation. Hypertrophy is an increase in cell size within an organ or tissue, often due to increased functional demands. Atrophy is a decrease in cell and organ size due to loss of cell substance from factors like disuse or inadequate nutrition. Metaplasia is a reversible change where one adult cell type replaces another, such as squamous replacing columnar epithelium from chronic irritation. These changes can sometimes progress to cancer if the predisposing stimuli persist long-term.
1. Tissue repair involves regeneration of injured tissue or replacement by connective tissue scarring. It involves cell proliferation and interaction between cells and the extracellular matrix.
2. Tissues are divided into continuously dividing, stable, and permanent groups based on their ability to proliferate. Continuously dividing tissues like skin regenerate easily while permanent tissues like neurons cannot regenerate after injury.
3. Growth factors and the extracellular matrix play important roles in tissue repair by stimulating cell growth and movement. Repair occurs through regeneration in labile tissues and scarring in others when injury is too severe for regeneration.

Metaplasia is a reversible change where one adult cell type replaces another in response to stress. For example, in smokers the ciliated trachea cells are often replaced with squamous cells. This change arises from the reprogramming of stem cells due to signals from cytokines, growth factors and the extracellular matrix. If the stress persists, metaplasia can predispose the tissue to malignant transformation.
Chronic inflammation is defined as prolonged inflammation and tissue destruction occurring simultaneously. It can result from acute inflammation persisting, recurrent acute attacks, or starting de novo from low pathogenicity organisms. Features include mononuclear cell infiltration, tissue destruction, and proliferative changes like granulation tissue formation and fibrosis. Examples given are tuberculosis, leprosy, and actinomycosis. Granulomas are characteristic of chronic granulomatous inflammation and are composed of epithelioid cells, giant cells, lymphocytes, and may show caseation necrosis.
This document summarizes the key aspects of inflammation. It begins by defining inflammation and describing the cardinal signs. It then discusses the etiological factors, types of inflammation (acute vs chronic), and the haemodynamic and cellular events in acute inflammation. Specifically, it outlines the vascular changes, increased permeability, exudation of leukocytes, and process of phagocytosis. It also discusses the chemical mediators of inflammation like histamine, kinins, cytokines, prostaglandins, and the resolution of inflammation. Finally, it concludes that inflammation is an important immune response but better understanding its pathways could aid in treating diseases.
(1) Chronic inflammation involves the prolonged presence of inflammatory cells, tissue injury, and attempts at repair over weeks or months. (2) The key cells involved are macrophages, which attempt to eliminate injurious agents but also cause tissue damage by secreting inflammatory mediators, and lymphocytes, which amplify and propagate the inflammatory response.

This document discusses chronic inflammation. It describes chronic inflammation as inflammation of prolonged duration involving ongoing inflammation, tissue injury, and attempts at repair. Chronic inflammation is characterized by mononuclear cell infiltration, tissue destruction, and attempts at healing through fibrosis and angiogenesis. Macrophages are a key player in chronic inflammation by secreting cytokines, growth factors, enzymes, and other inflammatory mediators that can cause both inflammatory tissue injury and repair. Granulomatous inflammation is a distinctive pattern of chronic inflammation seen in some infectious and noninfectious conditions, where macrophages form aggregates surrounded by lymphocytes called granulomas in an attempt to control difficult to eradicate agents.
Granuloma is defined as a localized collection of modified macrophages called epithelioid cells surrounded by lymphocytes. It forms as an immune response to foreign substances that cannot be easily eliminated by the body. A granuloma contains epithelioid cells, multinucleated giant cells formed by the fusion of macrophages, and a rim of lymphocytes, and may develop central caseous necrosis. Tuberculosis causes immune granulomas known as tubercles, which typically feature caseating necrosis. Granulomas aim to wall off pathogens and prevent their spread in the body.
Repair by connective tissue occurs when severe or persistent tissue injury damages both parenchymal cells and the stromal framework, preventing repair through parenchymal regeneration alone. Instead, repair happens through replacement of the non-regenerated parenchymal cells with connective tissue. The process involves formation of new blood vessels, migration and proliferation of fibroblasts, deposition of extracellular matrix, and maturation/reorganization of the fibrous tissue through remodeling. Factors like nutrition, infection, mechanical forces, and localization/size of the wound can influence wound healing outcomes. Complications include inadequate healing, wound dehiscence, exuberant scarring, ulceration, and non-healing wounds.
1. Chronic inflammation is defined as prolonged inflammation where tissue destruction and inflammation occur simultaneously over a long period.
2. It can occur through three pathways: following acute inflammation, recurrent acute attacks, or starting gradually without an initial acute phase.
3. Chronic inflammation is characterized by mononuclear infiltration, ongoing tissue damage or necrosis, and proliferative changes in tissues.
This document provides an overview of cell injury and cell death processes presented by Dr. Marc Imhotep Cray. It discusses reversible cell injury mechanisms including hydropic swelling, intracellular accumulations, and cellular adaptation processes. It also covers irreversible cell injury mechanisms of necrosis and apoptosis. Necrosis types such as coagulative, liquefactive, caseous, and fat necrosis are described. The document provides histological images and discusses the cellular and molecular mechanisms involved in different types of cell injury and death.
Chronic inflammation is inflammation that lasts for weeks or months. It can be caused by persistent infections, immune-mediated diseases, or toxic agents. The key features are infiltration by mononuclear cells like macrophages and lymphocytes, ongoing tissue destruction, and attempts at healing through fibrosis and new blood vessel formation. Activated macrophages play a major role by releasing factors that cause further tissue injury and scar formation. Granulomatous inflammation is a pattern of chronic inflammation seen in some infectious and noninfectious conditions. It involves the formation of granulomas, which are microscopic aggregations of macrophages that form giant cells and are surrounded by lymphocytes in an attempt to contain hard to eliminate agents.
Difference between acute and chronic inflammationkamilKhan63
Acute inflammation is the early response of the body to short-term adverse stimuli and is not specific, involving dendritic cells, Kupffer cells, histiocytes, resistant macrophages, and mast cells in response to physical or chemical damage or pathogen invasion. Chronic inflammation is the prolonged inflammatory response lasting months or years, is specific involving acquired immunity, and responds to prolonged irritation by microorganisms through fibrosis and angiogenesis involving macrophages, neutrophils and lymphocytes.
Atrophy is the shrinkage of cells and tissues due to loss of cell substance. There are two types of atrophy: physiologic and pathologic. Physiologic atrophy occurs normally, such as the uterus after childbirth. Pathologic atrophy is caused by factors like decreased blood supply, nutrition, or innervation. At the cellular level, atrophy occurs through decreased protein synthesis and increased protein degradation via the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway and autophagy. While cells may have reduced function during atrophy, they are not dead, and atrophy can sometimes be reversed.
Chronic inflammation is prolonged inflammation that can last weeks to years. It involves ongoing tissue destruction and attempts at repair through fibrosis. It can follow acute inflammation or result from persistent infections like tuberculosis. Common features include mononuclear cell infiltration of macrophages, lymphocytes and plasma cells, as well as proliferative changes like angiogenesis and fibrosis. Chronic inflammation can be non-specific or granulomatous, characterized by granulomas which form to contain hard to eliminate agents and involve epithelioid cells, giant cells, and caseous necrosis. Examples include chronic cholecystitis and pyelonephritis.

This document provides an overview of inflammation. It discusses how inflammation is the body's protective response to eliminate infectious agents and damage. Inflammation involves immune cells, blood vessels, and proteins that work to remove the cause of injury and initiate repair. The signs of inflammation are heat, redness, swelling, pain, and loss of function. Acute inflammation is rapid and short, while chronic inflammation is longer lasting. Chemical mediators produced by cells induce and regulate the inflammatory response.
This document discusses neoplasia and provides classifications of tumors. It defines a neoplasm as an abnormal mass of tissue whose growth exceeds and is uncoordinated with normal tissue. Tumors are classified as benign or malignant. Benign tumors are noncancerous growths named by adding "-oma" to the cell of origin (e.g. fibroblast tumor is called a fibroma). Malignant tumors are cancers, with sarcomas arising from mesenchymal tissues and carcinomas from epithelial tissues. Malignant tumors are less differentiated, irregular in shape, invade surrounding tissues, and are usually larger than benign tumors.
Chronic inflammation is defined as prolonged inflammation that involves simultaneous tissue destruction and inflammation. It can arise from acute inflammation that becomes extensive, recurrent acute attacks, or from infections by low-pathogenicity organisms. Chronic inflammation is characterized by mononuclear cell infiltration including macrophages, lymphocytes, and plasma cells. Macrophages release proteases and other factors that cause tissue destruction and necrosis. This leads to proliferative changes including new blood vessel formation and fibrosis. Chronic inflammation can cause systemic effects like fever, anemia, leucocytosis, and elevated ESR. It is classified into non-specific and granulomatous types based on histological features. Granulomas are circumscribed lesions composed of epithelioid cells, multinu
The document defines inflammation and its advantages and disadvantages. It discusses the players involved in the inflammatory response, including circulating cells, vascular wall cells, and the extracellular matrix. It describes acute and chronic inflammation, distinguishing their features. Chronic inflammation arises from acute inflammation when the stimulus cannot be resolved. It involves macrophages, lymphocytes, eosinophils, and mast cells and can be granulomatous or non-granulomatous.

Inflammation is the body's immune response to infection or injury. It involves increased blood flow, migration of white blood cells, and other vascular and cellular changes. Acute inflammation resolves quickly, while chronic inflammation persists long-term due to ongoing infection, toxin exposure, or autoimmune disease. Tissue repair after injury occurs through regeneration of original cell types or scar formation involving fibroblasts and collagen deposition. Factors like nutrition, infection, and wound location influence the healing process.
Chronic inflammation is characterized by mononuclear cell infiltration over a prolonged duration. It can arise from acute inflammation that is extensive or recurrent, or from intracellular pathogens or immune reactions that cause a sustained response. Chronic inflammation features tissue destruction, proliferative changes like new blood vessel growth, and systemic effects like mild fever and anemia. Granulomatous inflammation forms localized granulomas composed of epithelioid macrophages surrounded by lymphocytes. Granulomas develop from engulfed antigens that macrophages cannot degrade. Chronic inflammation differs from acute inflammation in its longer duration, insidious onset, specific cell types involved, and propensity for tissue fibrosis.

concise lecture with tables and pictures about chronic inflammation, its mediators, mechanism and sequele. Granulomatous inflammation with different types of granulomas along with histopathology pictures and description.
Chronic inflammation is inflammation of prolonged duration that can last weeks to years. It is characterized by infiltration of mononuclear cells like macrophages, lymphocytes, and plasma cells. Tissue destruction and repair also occur simultaneously through new vessel proliferation and fibrosis. Common causes include persistent infections that are difficult to clear, immune-mediated diseases where the immune system attacks the body's own tissues, prolonged exposure to toxic substances, and autoimmunity. Chronic inflammation involves macrophages, lymphocytes, and mediators that sustain the inflammatory response.
Inflammation can be either acute or chronic. Acute inflammation is short-lived, involving neutrophils and fluid/protein exudation to repair injured tissue. Chronic inflammation lasts months to years, associated with lymphocytes, macrophages, new blood vessel growth and fibrosis. It results from persistent stimuli that acute inflammation cannot resolve, like certain infections, autoimmune responses, or repeated acute insults.
This document summarizes inflammation and its key aspects. It describes inflammation as the body's protective response to eliminate injurious agents, damaged tissues, and necrotic cells. The signs of inflammation are heat, redness, swelling, pain, and loss of function. There are two major components of acute inflammation - vascular changes that increase blood flow and permeability, and cellular events involving leukocyte recruitment and activation through phagocytosis. Chronic inflammation is characterized by infiltration of mononuclear cells, plasma cells, tissue destruction, repair, and fibrosis over prolonged periods.
This document summarizes the key components of the immune system and inflammatory response. It discusses the innate and acquired immune responses, types of leukocytes including granulocytes, monocytes, and lymphocytes.

Rational of endodontic treatment/ rotary endodontic courses by indian dental ...Indian dental academy
Endodontic treatment aims to remove infected pulp from the tooth canal and fill the space to prevent further infection. Inflammation is the body's response to injury or infection and involves vascular changes, immune cell infiltration, and tissue changes. The goal of inflammation is to destroy the irritant and repair the tissue. Successful endodontic treatment relies on controlling or resolving inflammation in the tooth and surrounding tissues.
Chronic inflammation is a prolonged inflammatory response that can last for weeks or months. It is characterized by infiltration of mononuclear cells like macrophages and lymphocytes. Macrophages secrete cytokines and growth factors that propagate the chronic inflammation. Lymphocytes also activate and amplify the chronic inflammation. This leads to ongoing tissue destruction and attempts at healing. Chronic inflammation can result from persistent infections, autoimmune diseases, or prolonged exposure to toxic agents. It involves different cells and mediators compared to acute inflammation and can result in the formation of granulomas or scars.
Inflammation can be either acute or chronic. Acute inflammation is short-lived, involving neutrophils and fluid/protein exudation to repair injured tissue. Chronic inflammation lasts months to years, associated with lymphocytes, macrophages, new blood vessel growth and fibrosis. Chronic inflammation occurs when an irritant persists and the acute response cannot resolve it, leading to long-term tissue damage and systemic effects like fever and anemia.
Chronic inflammation is defined as prolonged inflammation that lasts for longer than 6 weeks. It is characterized by simultaneous ongoing tissue destruction and attempts at healing. It can develop from acute inflammation that persists over time, repeated acute attacks, or a mild initial response. Key features include infiltration of mononuclear cells like macrophages, lymphocytes, and plasma cells. Compared to acute inflammation, it has minimal vascular changes and fibrosis or scarring occurs over time as the body attempts repair. Chronic inflammation can lead to conditions like fibrosis or granuloma formation and is implicated in various diseases.
8 Surprising Reasons To Meditate 40 Minutes A Day That Can Change Your Life.pptxHolistified Wellness
We’re talking about Vedic Meditation, a form of meditation that has been around for at least 5,000 years. Back then, the people who lived in the Indus Valley, now known as India and Pakistan, practised meditation as a fundamental part of daily life. This knowledge that has given us yoga and Ayurveda, was known as Veda, hence the name Vedic. And though there are some written records, the practice has been passed down verbally from generation to generation.
low birth weight presentation. Low birth weight (LBW) infant is defined as the one whose birth weight is less than 2500g irrespective of their gestational age. Premature birth and low birth weight(LBW) is still a serious problem in newborn. Causing high morbidity and mortality rate worldwide. The nursing care provide to low birth weight babies is crucial in promoting their overall health and development. Through careful assessment, diagnosis,, planning, and evaluation plays a vital role in ensuring these vulnerable infants receive the specialize care they need. In India every third of the infant weight less than 2500g.

Breast cancer: Post menopausal endocrine therapyDr. Sumit KUMAR
Breast cancer in postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive (HR+) status is a common and complex condition that necessitates a multifaceted approach to management. HR+ breast cancer means that the cancer cells grow in response to hormones such as estrogen and progesterone. This subtype is prevalent among postmenopausal women and typically exhibits a more indolent course compared to other forms of breast cancer, which allows for a variety of treatment options.
Diagnosis and Staging
The diagnosis of HR+ breast cancer begins with clinical evaluation, imaging, and biopsy. Imaging modalities such as mammography, ultrasound, and MRI help in assessing the extent of the disease. Histopathological examination and immunohistochemical staining of the biopsy sample confirm the diagnosis and hormone receptor status by identifying the presence of estrogen receptors (ER) and progesterone receptors (PR) on the tumor cells.
Staging involves determining the size of the tumor (T), the involvement of regional lymph nodes (N), and the presence of distant metastasis (M). The American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) staging system is commonly used. Accurate staging is critical as it guides treatment decisions.
Treatment Options
Endocrine Therapy
Endocrine therapy is the cornerstone of treatment for HR+ breast cancer in postmenopausal women. The primary goal is to reduce the levels of estrogen or block its effects on cancer cells. Commonly used agents include:
Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulators (SERMs): Tamoxifen is a SERM that binds to estrogen receptors, blocking estrogen from stimulating breast cancer cells. It is effective but may have side effects such as increased risk of endometrial cancer and thromboembolic events.
Aromatase Inhibitors (AIs): These drugs, including anastrozole, letrozole, and exemestane, lower estrogen levels by inhibiting the aromatase enzyme, which converts androgens to estrogen in peripheral tissues. AIs are generally preferred in postmenopausal women due to their efficacy and safety profile compared to tamoxifen.
Selective Estrogen Receptor Downregulators (SERDs): Fulvestrant is a SERD that degrades estrogen receptors and is used in cases where resistance to other endocrine therapies develops.
Combination Therapies
Combining endocrine therapy with other treatments enhances efficacy. Examples include:
Endocrine Therapy with CDK4/6 Inhibitors: Palbociclib, ribociclib, and abemaciclib are CDK4/6 inhibitors that, when combined with endocrine therapy, significantly improve progression-free survival in advanced HR+ breast cancer.
Endocrine Therapy with mTOR Inhibitors: Everolimus, an mTOR inhibitor, can be added to endocrine therapy for patients who have developed resistance to aromatase inhibitors.
Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy is generally reserved for patients with high-risk features, such as large tumor size, high-grade histology, or extensive lymph node involvement. Regimens often include anthracyclines and taxanes.
