Cellular Injury Flashcards
Decrease in oxygen supply
Hypoxia
Ex: anemia
Complete absence of oxygen
Ischemia
It has greater affinity compared to oxygen
Carbon monoxide
8 causes of cell injury
- hypoxia
- ischemia
- physical injury
- chemical injury
- infectious injury
- genetic derangement
- nutritional imbalance
- aging and senescence
Types of cell injury
Reversible and irreversible
Thickening of interstisium space in alveoli
Pneumonia
Aka “heart attack”
Acute myocardial infarction
It means complete blocked coronary artery
Infarct
1) Mild and short lived
2) Na-K ATPase
Reversible cell injury
2 hallmark of reversible cell injury
- cellular swelling
* oxidative phosphorylation
Produced in mitochondria
ATP
It needs oxygen for production
Mitochondria
1) caused by hydropic change
2) changed by ion concentration and water influx
Cellular swelling
Functional changes during reversible cell injury
- Reduced energy production
- Decreased protein synthesis
- Increased autophagy
Swollen \_\_\_\_\_\_ generates \_\_\_\_\_\_ energy. A. Ribosomes, more B. Mitochondria, less C. Mitochondria, more D. Ribosomes, less
B
A hallmark of reversible cell injury needed to produce ATP
Oxidative phosphorylation
The product of Anaerobic glycolysis is LACTIC ACID wherein it produces _______
Cellular acidosis
1) this enzyme leaks out to the cytoplasm from lysosomes
2) can digest cellular organelles
Hydrolytic enzyme
Due to acidic pH of the cell the metabolism slows _____.
A. Up
B . Down
B. Down
Dilation and fragmentation of the Rough endoplasmic reticulum and loss of membrane can lead to the detachment of ribosome that results to ______
Decrease protein synthesis
Damaged proteins and toxic intermediate products are sequestered in autophagosomes (lysosomes) can RESULT to:
Increased autophagy
An enzyme that may leak out from over distended phagosomes into acidified cytoplasm contributing to the damage of other cellular components
Hydrolytic lysosomal enzyme
A cell injury wherein it is caused by heavy doses of toxins, anoxia, prolonged hypoxia
Irreversible cell injury
Nuclear/ultra structural changes in irreversible cell injury (3)
1) pyknosis
2) karyorrhexis
3) karyolysis
