Q

Pompe’s Disease - problem and symptoms (2)

Type II

A

Deficient Lysosomal alpha 1-4 glucosidase -> breaks off 1 C at a time of glycogen - lysosomal storage problem

Cardiomegaly,
systemic findings and early death

Cori’s disease - problem and symptoms

Type III

normal lactate levels

Q

McArdle Disease - problem and symptoms
Type V

What is missing?

A

Deficient muscle phosphorylase (myophosphorylase), catalyzes the phosphorolysis of 1,4 glucose residue - muscle glycogen unable to be released

increased glycogen in muscle, leading to painful cramps w/ exercise, myogloburia w/ extreme exercise (rhabdomyolysis - > red urine)
- NO increase in lactic acid

Q

I cell disease deficiency in?

Presentation(5)

A

phosphotransferase

mannose 6 phosphate won’t be put on and lysosome enzymes in the serum from the golgi instead of lysosome

corneal clouding, coarse facies, hepatosplenomegaly, skeletal abnormalities, restricted joint movement

Death by age 8

A

Cyclin D and CDK4

Cyclin E and CDK 2

17
Q

G2-M regulators (2)

A

Cyclin A and CDK2

Cyclin B and CDK 1

18
Q

E2F is what ?

Regulated by

A

a TF that is bound by Rb.

Phosphorylation allows release and transcription

19
Q

Tumor regulator examples (5)

A
p53
p21
p27
p57
Rb
20
Q

Ubiquition role?

A

Heat shock protein used to mark proteins for degradation in proteasome

21
Q

plamalogens

A

important phospholipid found in myelin made in peroxisome

other peroxisome functions

  • beta oxidation of FA
  • oxidase and catalase for metabolizing ethanol
22
Q

Kartageners syndrome(4)

A

primary ciliary dyskinesia - dyenin defect

infertility
sinusitis
bronchiectasis
50% situs inversus

23
Q

Drugs associated w/ microtubules (5)

A

Bendiazoles - mebendazloe, albendazole
griseofulvin - antifungal
vincristine/vinblastine - block formation
paclitaxel/docetaxel - stabilize formation
colchicine

24
Q

Enzyme implicated in lead poisoning

2

A

alpha aminolevulinic acid dehydratase
-ALA dehyrdatase
ferrochelatase

See microcytic anemia, hypochromic, and basophilic stippling w/ retained RNA in RBCs

25
Glactosemia due to? Presentation(4)
absence of galactose 1 phosphate uridyltransferase; can't make galactose 1P -> glucose 1 p Failure to thrive, jaundice, hepatomegaly, cataracts and mental retardation
26
Chediak higashi syndrome defect? and presentation?(3)
mutation in lysosomal trafficking regulator LYST -> used for microtubule dependent sorting of endosomal proteins immunodeficiency syndrome -> pyrogenic infections, partial albinism and peripheral neuropathy
27
High cholesterol in a cell membrane -> | 2
decreased fluidity - too much | increases melting temperature
28
2 examples of common metaplasia
-reversible Barrets esophegus: GERD -> squamous cell -> columnar Smoking - trachea ciliated columnar cells -> squamous cell
29
lipofuscin
wear and tear molecules seen in cells yellow brown inclusions due to free radical induced lipid oxidation
30
Telomerase and cancer?
normally off in somatic cells but w/ CA this extends telomeres allowing indefinite replications
31
Atrophy is? Due to
Reduction in size or # of cells fewer cell organelles -> decreased metabolic activity -> decreased protein synth -> protein degradation (upbiquitan -proteosome or free radical oxidation); autophagy low: hormone, innervation, nutrient, blood flow, Increased pressure of occlusion
