The reaction of a part of the body to injury or infection, characterized by swelling, heat, and pain. Inflammation increases the amount of blood flow to the injured area, bringing in more white blood cells and often healing the damaged tissue. The American Heritage® Student Science Dictionary...
A small oral mass of lymphoid tissue, especially either of two such masses embedded in the lateral walls of the opening between the mouth and the pharynx, of uncertain function, but believed to help protect the body from respiratory infections. ...

Study with Quizlet and memorize flashcards containing terms like Introduction to Inflammation Inflammation is an immunologic defense against tissue injury, infection, or an allergy. It is a process involving white blood cells and a number of differe
I've always had big tonsils, and often get those gross tonsil stones too. A few days ago, I decided to eat a diet almost completely based on fruits and veggies, with limited dairy. Today is day four. This morning, my tonsils were way smaller! I don't know if it was eliminating the...
with recombinant TNF-α is sufficient to induce epithelial damage26,27. Thus, the host response to gonococci is hypothesized as a major cause of the tissue damage observed during PID, in contrast with the idea that gonococci have a direct toxic effect on host cells. Consistent with this hy...
HEVs are present in all secondary lymphoid organs with the exception of spleen, including hundreds of LNs dispersed in the body, tonsils, adenoids, Peyer’s patches in the small intestine, appendix, and small aggregates of lymphoid tissue associated with the mucosal surfaces of the respiratory, ...
but not in males, while cluster A4 was significantly underrepresented in LC compared to R males, but not in females (Extended Data Fig.7b). Cluster A1 was composed of CD45ROloCD45RAhiCD4+TNcells and expressed low levels of activation markers (HLA-DR and Ox40) and inflammatory tissue-homi...
A complex of tonsillar tissue-specific IgG and Fc纬RI was observed on the surface of Rtn PMNs; these PMNs could specifically recognize the Rtn tissue extracts and were designated the tonsillar antigen-specific PMNs (sPMNs). A signal transduction pathway of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK...
and overwhelming immune cells influx5,6. Therefore, a detailed understanding of the factors that regulate the balance between viral clearance, tissue damage, and resolution of inflammation is necessary for the identification of novel targets for personalized immunotherapy in acute lung inflammation caused...
