The mediators of inflammation are two types called the cell derived mediators and plasma derived mediators. The cell derived mediators such as mast cells are found throughout the connective tissues in the body. The cytoplasm is filled with granules containing histamine and other chemicals that mediators of the inflammatory process. The histamine is a Vasodilator that can dilate the blood vessels. The histamine binds to the receptors of blood vessels to increase the permeability causing vasodilation. This decreases the blood pressure. Further, it also stimulates synthesis and release of various vascular smooth muscle cell relaxants, such as nitric oxide. These also can increase the vascular permeability and reduce the blood pressure. Binding of histamine to specific receptor stimulates the production of other inflammatory mediators like cytokines and recruitment of these cells to sites of inflammation amplifies the inflammatory reactions.
Binding of histamine to receptors in blood vessels helps promote inflammation. Identify two specific effects of...
