Q

what are the possible mechanisms that can result in lipid accumulation?

A
  1. excessive delivery of FFA from fat stores or diet
  2. dec oxidation or use of FFA
  3. impaired synthesis of apoprotein
  4. impaired combination of protein and triglycerides to form lipoproteins
  5. impaired release of lipoproteins from hepatocytes

just one step needs to go wrong for hepatic lipidosis

A

cell injury > BCL2 family sensors > BCL2 family effectors (BAX, BAK) > mitochondria > cytochrome C > initiator caspase-9 > executioner capases > endonuclease activation/breakdown of cytoskeleton > cytoplasmic bleb > apoptotic body > phagocyte ingests apoptotic body

44
Q

Describe the pathogenesis of the death receptor (extrinsic) pathway

A

receptor-ligand interaction > adaptor proteins > initiator caspase-8 > executioner capases > endonuclease activation/breakdown of cytoskeleton > cytoplasmic bleb > apoptotic body > phagocyte ingests apoptotic body

Q

Given the right image is normal what is happening on the left image?

A

necrosis

what type of necrosis is this?

A

coagulative
maintains shape, myofibers fragmented, nuclei lost

59
Q

what type of necrosis is this?

A

coagulative necrosis, renal papillary necrosis

60
Q

what is the pathogenesis of renal papillary necrosis?

A

inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis by NSAIDs by inhibition of COX1 and COX2 > predisposes kidney to renal hypoperfusion > ischemia > papillary necrosis
