Q

these cells have a NON-CILIATED DOME SHAPED SURFACE
function as STEM CELLS – add proteins to surfactant and metabolize some toxins
these cells are UNIQUE TO BROCHIOLES

Q

Air/Blood Barrier means O2 from Air INTO blood
Flow Chart

A

surfactant –> type 1 cell –> fused basal lamina –> endothelial cell –> blood plasma –> erythrocyte cell membrane

17
Q

Blood/Air Barrie (CO2 FROM blood to AIR)

A

erthrocyte cell membrane –> blood plasma –> endothelial cells –> fused basal lamina –> type 1 cell –> surfactant

18
Q

moist oily film that coats surgace of alveoli and lowers surface tension – reducing force needed to expand the alveoli during inspiration and preventing their collapse after expiration
MADE OF phospholipiids with a small number of proteins

A

SURFACTANT

19
Q

The absence or deficiency of SURFACTANT results in and this is usually due to a lack of

A

COLLAPSE of ALVEOLI and BRONCHIOLES usually due to a lack of development of type 2 cells

20
Q

The primitive alveoli appear during week __ of development

A

weeks 28, but 95% development occurs after birth up to 8 years

21
Q

inflammation of bronchial mucosa, excessive mucus – thicker wall

A

CHRONIC BRONCHITIS

22
Q

permanent enlargement of alveolar air spaces

A

EMPHYSEMA

23
Q

two main disease entities of Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)

A

Chronic Bronchitis and Emphysema

24
Q

inflammatory disease with sudden reversible bronchospasm of smooth muscles in bronchioles and bronchi

A

ASTHMA

25
Q

this is a highly aggressive cancer derived from neuroendocrine cells in bronchi

A

SMALL CELL LUNG CARCINOMA

26
Q

this non small cell carcinoma has VARIABLE appearance but can grow in a GLANDULAR PATTERN along bronchioles

A

ADENOCARCINOMA –

27
Q

This non small cell carcinoma is usually by squamous cell metaplasia
continued exposure to toxins can lead to progression of dysplasia to squamous cell carcinoma in situ then to invasive

A

SQUAMOUS CELL CARINOMA
