Immue System - How are cells recruited to the site of infection?
  1. Innate I.S. Recruitment
    1. Involve...
      1. Selectin + Chemokines + serpentin receptor adhesion
        1. chemokine: I(V)CAM-1
          1. Mechanisms
            1. 1) Rolling adhesion
              1. Following infection mast cells release vasodilators
                1. ie. IL-1 and TNF-alpha
                  1. (i) they bind to their receptors activating endothelial cells
                  2. enable vascular endothelial cells to increase their expression of (produce) adhesion molecules
                    1. adhesion molecules
                      1. Selectin
                        1. cause leukocytes to slow their flow and roll along the inner blood vessel wall
                        2. Chemokines
                          1. Intracellular adhesion molecules (ICAM)
                            1. Vascular cell adhesion molecule (VCAM)
                          2. Hence, increases capillary permeability
                            1. allowing plasma + leukocytes (white blood cell) to leave bloodstream and enter tissue
                      2. 2) Tight binding
                        1. Chemokines (IL-8) at the inner suface of endothelial cells
                          1. interact with the chemokine receptors on the surface of rolling leukocytes
                            1. This triggers activation of intergrin on the surface of leukocytes
                              1. This enables rolling leukocytes bind to VCAMs and ICAMs on the inner surface of vascular endothelial cells
                        2. 3) Diapedesis + Migration
                          1. Following the binding, diapedesis take place; leukocytes cross through the intact walls of the vascular endothelial cells and basement membrane
                            1. And migrate to the infection site
                        3. Mast cell
                          1. 1) Damaged mast cell releases histamine
                            1. 2) Histamine diffuses into capillaries
                              1. 3) Histamine causes capillaries to dilate and leaky, while complement proteins attract phagocytes
                                1. 4) Plasma and phagocytes move from capillary to the infection site
                                  1. 5) Phagocytes engulf bacteria + dead cells
                                    1. 6) The signalling of histamine and complement stop
                                      1. phagocytes are no longer moving to the infection site
                                        1. The tissue returns
                                      2. ie. IL-1 and TNF-alpha
                                  2. Other recruitment
                                    1. Plasma entering the tissue
                                      1. Complement proteins
                                        1. bacteria in plasma activates complement
                                          1. causes
