Barone Flashcards
Micro vs macro cirrhosis of liver
3mm
alcohol is MCC of micro
UC
toxic megacolon -> sepsis -> death
continuous lesions
pseudopolyps (healing regions)
UC histo
superficial inflammation
crypt abscesses
UC markers
HLAB27
pANCA
anti-myeloperoxidase
Chrons
transumural inflammation -> strictures - string sign
skip lesions- cobblestone
creeping fat
Chrons histo
transmurral granulomatous inflammation
markers
NOD2
ASCA
Anti-saccharomyces cerevisiae Ab (brewers yeast - corona)
purple cyto
neutros
bacteria
Ca
pink cyto
proteins
cardiac myocytes
intercalated discs w/gap jnxs made up of kinexins
looks like little circles in a big cirle
Hemochromatosis
increased Fe
mutation in HFE
C282Y (Cys-> tyr)
what is toxic about Fe and Cu
Fenton Rx
tuns H202 -> OH radical
Tx for hemochromatosis
phlebotomy
chelation:
1st line- deferasirox (PO)
2nd line- deferoxamine (IV)
Tx for excess Cu
depencilimin
pennies are made of Cu
Prussian blue stain
Fe
congo red stain
amyloid
acid fast aka
kineyou
siehl-nelson
Fite
acid fast stain
TB
MAI
weak- nocardia
PAS stain
stains sugar glycogen storage diseases glycoproteins (alpha 1 anti-trypsan def) bacteria (whipples disease) fungi (silver better) pagets disease of nipple (mucus stains) AML-M6
AML-M6
red cell form
googly elmo
erythroid leukemia
stains PAS
herpes viruses
all DNA
all double stranded (except parvo)
encapsulated by nuclear membrane like HPs invisibility cloak -> herpes is forever!
rabies infectious process
binds AChRs
Dynin retrograde transport
cyclophosphamide
Nitrogen mustard via p450 -> alkylates DNA -> kills cells
build up of acroline
acroline
hemorrhagic cystitis and transitional cell carcinoma
how do you prevent hemorrhagic cystitis
mesna should always be given w/cyclophosphamide
repetitive catalase + infections in kid
think chronic granulomatous disease
troponin
most specific marker of cell death
myoglobin
most sensitive marker of cell death
amylase
most sensitive marker of pancreatits
lypase
most specific marker of pancreatitis
how do you know if ALP is elevated d/t liver or bone?
if GGT elevated biliary
if GGT normal bone
cytotoxic T cells kill how
FasL binds FasR/CD95 on infected cell -> death domain -> caspase 8 -> caspases 3,6,7
p53
G1->S checkpoint by keeping RB hypophosphorylated
DNA strand breaks… what happens?
Sensed by ATM -> tell p53 to stop cycle and BRACA to fix it
ataxia telangetasia
mutated ATM
Lynch syndrome
mutated MLH1/MSH2 CEO colon endometrial ovarian
excision endonuclease repair
sun damage
broken in xeroderma pigmentosa -> skin CA
if mutation cannot be fined
increased p53 -> Bax punches holes in outer membrane -> cytochrome C into cyto -> APAF1 -> caspase 9 -> caspase 3
BCL2
anti-apoptotic
plugs up BAX channels
follicular NHL turns on BCL2
follicular NHL
b cell tumor (B cell markers) 14,18 IgH, BCL2 low grade, divides slowly Px 10yrs chemo or radiation do nothing
infliximab
Anti TNF
rituximab
anti CD20
check serology for HBV and HBC
kid born w/o thymic shadow
DiGeorge
SCIDs
HIV
adult w/thymic shadow
Thymoma
MG
pure red cell aplasia
viral hepatits
councilman bodies
concentric left ventricular hypertrophy
HTN
S4 gallop
PTEN mutation
chrom 10
prostate
follicular thyroid CA
endometrial CA
serous adenocarcinoma of endometrium
older women
usually papillary -> bad bc break off and seed
usually in ovary
worst ovarian CA
present w/adnexal mass w/ascites -> death sentence
pagets carcinoma
keratin +
PAS +
Melanoma
S100 (so are pheos and schwanomas)
HMB-45
Nieman pick
chrom 11
sphingomyelin -> zebra body lysosomes -> hepatosplenomegaly
lipofusion
accumulates in aging heart, brain, liver
perioxidized undigestible lipids
normal
