CELL INJURY, ADAPTATIONS AND DEATH - 2 Flashcards
Covers ppts - Part 3 and 4 i.e. Cell Death , Intracellular accumulations and Cell death
List the Anti-apoptotic proteins
Location?
How do they prevent cell death?
Bcl-2, Bcl-x, and Mcl-1
reside in the cytoplasm and in mitochondrial membranes
control mitochondrial permeability
prevent leakage of mitochondrial proteins that have the ability to trigger cell death
Mitochondrial protein whose release triggers activation of caspases
cytochrome c
The 2 kinases involved in necroptosis
receptor associated kinase 1 and 3 (RIP 1 & 3)
List 3 examples of physiologic apoptosis occuring due to Shrinkage of hormone-dependent tissue after withdrawal of the hormone
- endometrial cell breakdown during the menstrual cycle
- ovarian follicular atresia in menopause
- regression of the lactating breast after weaning
Name 3 organs likely to exhibit the same pattern of infarction as shown in the attached image
Spleen, heart and kidney
Pattern of necrosis wherein the architecture of dead tissues is preserved for a span of at least some days
Coagulative necrosis
Release of which biologically active cytokine is repsonsible for pyroptosis
Interleukin-1
Etiology of coagulative necrosis
Can occur due to ischemia caused by obstruction in a vessel
Identify the pattern of necrosis shown in the attached image
Fibrinoid necrosis
(Bright pink and amorphous)
Column B represents?
Apoptosis
a ladder pattern is seen due to the action of calcium and magnesium dependent endonucleases that cleave DNA at internucleosomal linker regions which occur at 180 base pair intervals in the genome.
See attached image.
Necrosis or apoptosis?
Necrosis
Give 1 word that best fits the description below:
“caspase-independent” programmed necrosis
necroptosis
1 example of Enzymatic fat necrosis
Acute pancreatitis
Identify the process resulting in the appearance shown in the attached image
Apoptosis
See the attached image. What is the underlying basis for its occurence?
Incomplete or defective apoptosis is responsible for syndactyly
