Necroptosis involves 2 unique kinases called _____ and 3

Swelling in inflammation is mediated by endothelial cell disruption (due to tissue damage) and endothelial cell contraction (caused by _____, histamine, and serotonin)

In the setting of chronic inflammation, macrophages can be activated to M2 macrophages by stimulation from _____ cells, resulting in a antiinflammatory phenotype

Rheumatoid arthritis is associated with _____, which are areas of fibrinoid necrosis with palisading histiocytes in the skin and visceral organs (e.g. lung)

Granulomas due to sarcoidosis often have characteristic _____-shaped inclusions ('asteroid bodies') within giant cells

Integrin expression is upregulated on leukocytes by _____ and LTB4
