Q

What does increase influx of Ca+, H2O and Na+

increase efflux of K+ do

A

ER, cellular swelling
loss of microvilli
blebs

17
Q

What does increased anaerobic glycolysis cause

A

decrease glycogen
increase lactic acid
decrease pH

18
Q

What does decreased pH cause

A

clumping of nuclear chromatin

19
Q

What does detachment of ribosomes cause

A

decreased protein synthesis

20
Q

oxidative stress

A

accumulation of samage caused by free radicals

21
Q

how do free radicals cause damage

A

form bonds quickly and non-specifically, alter structure of proteins, nucleic acids, and lipids

22
Q

lipid peroxidation of membranes

A

double bonds of unsaturated fatty assholes are attacked, forming peroxides. Peroxides form more peroxides

23
Q

examples of antioxidants

A

vitamin E, C, A and beta carotene

24
Q

oxidation of proteins

A

oxidation of side changes forming disulfide bonds which leads to cross linking

25
Q

DNA damage

A

makes single-started breaks which can cause cancer

26
Q

defects in membrane permeability

A

caused activation of phospholipases
