pathophysiology cells associated with inflammation
Inflammation is a process in which the body's white blood cells and immune proteins help protect us from infection and foreign substances such as bacteria and viruses. In some diseases, however, the body's defense system (immune system) triggers an inflammatory response when there are no foreign substances to fight off.
Pathophysiology is the study of functional changes in the body that occur in response to disease or injury. For example, if someone ingests a toxin, that toxin might be associated with a variety of physical changes, such as inflammation in the stomach lining or necrosis of the extremities.athophysiology is the study of functional changes in the body that occur in response to disease or injury.
