RESUMO
O autor descreve os aspectos morfolgicos e funcionais da clula mesotelial pleural assim como seu comportamento e as reaes que
a mesma desenvolve frente s diferentes agresses que sobre ela incidem. So assinaladas as principais citocinas envolvidas nos processos
pleurticos e o perfil reacional da clula mesotelial a cada uma delas atravs a mobilizao de outras citocinas de resposta. Por fim so
abordadas sucintamente as conseqncias pleurais decorrentes destes fenmenos inflamatrios.
ABSTRACT
The author describes the morphological and functional aspects of pleural mesothelial cells as well its behavior after being injured by
several different aggressions. The involved cytokines and the proportional pleuritic processes are point out and related with the mesothelial
pleural cell answer to each one of them trough the mobilization of other cytokines. The consequences of the inflammatory mechanisms
over the pleural mesothelial layer are summarized.
