Reflex Pleuropulmonary

The plevoropulmonary reflex (RP) is the response of the immune system of a healthy body to the penetration of an exogenous agent into the body. It is realized by increasing the synthesis of antigens in lymphoid tissue. The release of cytokines initiates the formation of lymphocytes and macrophages. Initiates the T-helper response. As a result, an increase in the number of functioning immunocompetent cells is observed. Acute reactions of RP can turn into a chronic form, which can be pathological if there are infections and viruses in the body.

To understand the specifics of the pathogenesis of the Pelopudis reflex, it is necessary to know the structure and functioning features of the body’s natural barriers. When an aggressor enters the body, it becomes necessary to eliminate it. The reaction is eliminated by lymphocytes. They increase in number as a result of stimulation, their activity increases, they begin to actively attack the invading aggressive agent, releasing the corresponding cytotoxins. The triggering of a pathological reflex can also provoke an insufficient amount or complete absence of immunoglobulins in macrophagocytes. This deprives them of the ability to detect and recognize the invading infectious agent. Another option for the failure of the immune system is a poor state of the body due to the presence of infection, starvation, or an insufficient abundance of proteins in it. In this case, P.'s reaction will be weaker.

Pleuropulmonary reflexes

The pleural reflex is one of the simplest and most understandable reflexes used in clinical practice. This is a reflex that occurs when the pleural area of ​​the lung is irritated. All superficial structures of the pleural sac have nerve endings connected to the respiratory and circulatory organs. When these structures are injured or irritated, a reflex inhibition of breathing occurs, an enlargement of the chest during inspiration, and some other physical changes. The reaction of the pleural sac in a healthy person or animal is always positive and begins before the area that caused it is completely detected and marked. In other words, the onset of the reflex becomes a function of time and continues for a fraction of a second after the onset of stimulation. If the source of irritation is located deep, a rush occurs after a certain time

Pleuropulmonary reflex

Reflex is an important function of the body that allows you to respond to changes in the environment and the body. One of these reflexes is the pleuro-pneumo-pulmonary reflex, which is used to control breathing and prevent overwork of the lungs and other organs, ensuring respiratory function.

Structure of pleuro-pulmonological reflexes

Pleuro-pneumobiolo-pulmonological reflexes have a complex structure and include many elements. The function of this reflex is to regulate the functioning of the lungs and chest, which is associated with changes in the air and gas composition in the lungs. It acts to control inhalation posture, exhalation and the amount of air inhaled.

The main elements of the pleuropulmonary reflex are receptors in the chest. They are located on the surface of the lungs and in the connections between the pulmonary segments. The reflexive mechanism is connected to the brain, where the control center is located
