5: cellular adaptations and accumualtions Flashcards
distinctive alterations involving only subcellular organelles and cytosolic prtns
subcellular response
lysosomal catabolism
subcellular response
induction(hypertrophy) of smooth ER
subcellular response
mitochondrial alterations
subcellular response
cytoskeletal abnormalities
subcellular response
how does a primary lysosome become a secondary lysosome?
primary lysosomes budding from the golgi apparatus fuse with pinocytic or phagocytic vesicles from the PM to form secondark lysosomes aka phagolysosomes
undigested lipids and other materials
form residual bodies
what organelle synthesizes phospholipids and detoxifies?
smooth ER
smooth ER response to barbiturates and p-450 mixed function oxidase system
smooth ER undergoes hypertrophy and becomes more efficient
enlarged, abnormal mitochondrial shapes
seen in ETOH liver
ragged red fiber mitochondria
mitochondrial myopathies (genetic disease)
thin filaments example
acin, myosin, movement, phagocytosis
microtubules example
motility
phagocytosis
mitotic spindle
intermediate filaments example
intracellular scaffold, maintain cellular architecture, accumulate and be pathologic
4 mechanisms of intracellular accumulations
1) abnormal metabolism
2) alterations in protein folding and transport
3) deficiency of critical enzymes
4) inability to degrade phagocytosed particles
fatty liver
normal substance; metabolic rate inadequate to remove it
cuases of steatosis/fatty change
toxins protein malnutrition diabetwes obesity anoxia alcohol
most common cause of steatosis in industrialized nations
alcohol and diabetes
foam cells
atherosclerosis
xanthomas
hyperlipidemic state
cholesterolosis
gall stones
niemann-pick disease, type C
lysosomal storage disease
found at sites of cell injury secondary to phagocytosis of cholesterol from injured cells membranes
inflammation and necrosis
in plaques, smooth muscle cells and macrophages within intimal layer of aorta and large arteries fill with lipid vacuoles (foam cells). aggregates produce yellow, cholesterol laden atheromas
atherosclerosis
foam cells rupture, releasing lipids into extracellular space, may crystalize into…
cholesterol clefts
seen in renal diseases with heavy protein loss; increased reabsorption into proximal tubules; fusion of pinocytotic vesicles to make phagolysosomes
reabsorption droplets in proximal renal tubules (reversible)
synthesis of excessive amounts of normal secretory protein (immunoglobulins by plasma cells)
russell bodies (prtn accumulation)
characteristially seen in alchoholic liver disease (prtn accumulation)
mallory body or alchohol hyaline
- this is a type of cell injury
