Hyperplasia
Increase in size of cells resulting in increase of organ?
Hyper trophy
Hypertrophy and hyperplasia of uterus during pregnancy?
Both Estrogen stimulated smooth muscle hypertrophy and hyperplasia.
Wound healing, hypertrophy or hyperplasia?
Hyperplasia
Type of cell death characterized by nuclear dissolution, without complete loss of membrane integrity.
Apoptosis
Type of cell death which is energy-dependent, tightly regulated, and associated with normal cellular functions.
Apoptosis
Type of cell death which results from a pathologic cell injury.
Necrosis
Type of death associated with inflammation.
Necrosis
It is the irreversible condensation of chromatin in the nucleus of a cell undergoing necrosis or apoptosis.
Pylons is
It is the destructive fragmentation of the nucleus of a dying cell.
Karyorrhexis
It is the complete dissolution of the chromatin of a dying cell.
Largo lysis
This is the first manifestation of almost all forms of injury to cells.
Cellular swelling
Small clear vacuoles within the cytoplasm, representing pinched-off segments of the endoplasmic reticulum.
Hydropic change or Vacuolar degeneration
Appearance of lipid vacuoles in the cytoplasm.
Fatty change
Surface blebs, increased eosinophilia of the cytoplasm, cellular swelling.
