Types of Stressors and Adaptation of Cells
Mechanisms of Cell Injury
(2)
Hypoxic Injury
Free Radical and/or Reactive Oxygen Species Injury
Hypoxic Injury
(3)
- Ischemia
- Anoxia (occurs with complete blockages of blood flow and quickly precedes cell death)
- Reperfusion Injury = secondary injury dt inflammatory response (when the blood flows back to tissues and carries inflammatory mediators and inflammation is damaging to tissue)
Free Radical and/or Reactive Oxygen Species Injury
(3)

Lipid Peroxidation
Disruption of polypeptide chains
DNA damage
-
any kind of element with an unpaired electron in its outermost shell

Part 7 Morphological Adaptations to Stress and Injury

Physiological vs. Pathological Changes
Cells adapt to chronic injury/stress in many ways

- Alterations in Cell Differentiation (2)
- Atrophy, Hypertrophy, Hyperplasia
- Metaplasia, Dysplasia
Morphological Changes
- Cell number stays same, cell number increases
- Cell number stays same but cells have gotten smaller (not shrinkage, is a proportional decrease in both cell size and content)
- Cell number stays same cell size increases (not swelling, cell size and components both increase)
- All three of these changes frequently result of increase or decrease in _____ deman (like smaller arm when taking off a cast)
- Which two often happen together? why?
- Example of well adpative change =
- Example of pathological change =
- Hyperplasia
- Atrophy
- Hypertrophy
- functional
- Hypertrophy and Hyperplasia, bc both result from increase in functional demand (same stimuli)
- strength training
- DM II - insulin resistance - pancreas cells hypertrophy and hyperplasia to overcome resistance -> does not sustain -> cell death -> less insulin over time
Alterations in Cell Differentiation
- Complete derangement of cell control over tissue (never adaptive is always a consequence of cell injury) over-proliferating, less differentiated cell type
- Normal cells that make up a tissue get replaced by less mature/less differentiated cells bc they develop more rapidly and theres a chronic injury in that area
- Dysplasia
- Metaplasia
- Seen often in epithelial tissue
Atrophy
- ______ functional demand
- ______ nutritional support
- decreased
- decreased
- More white space in second photo bc size of liver cells have shrunken -> ex of atrophy as a result of protein or caloric deficiency (starvation)
-
Can also have atrophy in tissue that relies on hormonal support
- Reproductive tissue requires constant stimulation of reproductive hormones -> when taken away can atrophy ie) perimenopausal -> fibroid tumors
Hypertrophy

Is an example of what?
Cause =
Is it reversible?
