1 00:00:01,259 --> 00:00:04,478 After the scavenger cells [phagocytes] have done their work,

2 00:00:04,478 --> 00:00:09,478 residues of killed bacteria and damaged cells remain in the tissue.

3 00:00:09,658 --> 00:00:14,487 In the decay phase, inflammation-dissolving messenger substances are secreted.

4 00:00:14,534 --> 00:00:16,778 Among others, the resolvins.

5 00:00:17,982 --> 00:00:20,787 They activate a special type of of phagocytes,

6 00:00:20,787 --> 00:00:23,848 the M2 type macrophages.

7 00:00:24,507 --> 00:00:27,248 These dispose of cell and tissue debris.

8 00:00:30,722 --> 00:00:35,247 At the same time, other immune cells begin with the first repair measures:

9 00:00:35,270 --> 00:00:37,793 They seal off damaged blood vessels.

10 00:00:38,337 --> 00:00:42,313 In addition, destroyed cells are replaced by new ones.
