Q

Way of action of NO as a FR

A

It is produced in macrophages and endothelial cells.

Reacts with superoxide FRs and forms a potent FR peroxynitrate, that is bacteriocidal

Q

What is the effect of FR damage in the mitochondrial and cytoplasmic membrane?

A

Production of fatty acid FRs-> these react with molecular O2 -> to produce peroxyl-fatty acid radicals (called lipid peroxydation)

Q

How do the chemotherapeutic drugs etoposide and bleomycin act?

A

They inhibit the synthesis of tubulin. So no microtubules are synthesized. This normally happens in the G2 phase.

Q

How do Vinca alkaloids and colchicine act?

A

They bind to tubulin in microtubules, and so intefere with the assembly of the mitotic spindle

Q

What are mallory bodies and where do I dind them?

A

They are ubiquinated cytokeratin intermediate filaments in helatocytes in alcoholic liver disease. Appear as eosinophilic inclusion bodies in hepatocytes.

17
Q

What are Lewy bodies and where do I find them?

A

They are ubiquinated neurofilaments in idiopathic Parkinson disease. Appear as eosinophilic cytoplasmic inclusions in degenerating substantia nigra neurons.

18
Q

What are the consequences of lead poisoning?

A
  1. Sideroblastic anemia

2. Dysfunction of proximal tubule (ATN)

19
Q

Liver fatty change: in which form is LDL accumulated?

A

VLDL

20
Q

Ferritin, hemisiderin. Which circulates in the serum?

A

Ferritin. Hemosiderin is an insoluble product of ferritin degradation in lysosomes.

21
Q

Where do I find ferritin?

A
  1. Macrophages (bone marrow most common site)
  2. Hepatocytes (2nd MC site)
  3. Small amounts circulate in serum
22
Q

Gimme 3 examples of dystrophic calcification

A
  1. Calcification of chronic pancreatitis
  2. Calcified atherosclerotic plaques
  3. Periventricular calcification in congenital CMV infection
23
Q

Gimme 2 examples of metastatic calcification

A
  1. Nephrocalcinocis ( calcification of renal
    tubular BMs in the collecting ducts) -> causes NDI and Renal Failure
  2. Calcification in the lungs -> respiratory problems
24
Q

Why can CF produce type I DM?

A

Thick pancreatic excresions-> increased luminal back pressure and compression atrophy of the exocrine glands -> eventually all of the pancreas is damaged including the islet cells-> type I DM

25
Q

LV hypertrophy occurs in response to increased preload or afterload?

A

It can occur in both situations

26
Q

Which virus causes cell enlargement and via which mechanism ?

A

CMV. Virus increases the uptake of iron into the cytosol, which increases growth of cell

27
Q

Where do I find labile cells (stem cells)?

A
  1. Bone Marrow
  2. Crypts of Lieberkuhn
  3. Basal layer of epidermis
28
Q

3 examples of stable cells

A
  1. Hepatocytes
  2. Astrocytes
  3. SM cells
29
Q

Which pathogen causes metaplasia from transitional to squamous epithelium?

A

Schistosoma haematobium infection in the urinary bladder

30
Q

Which is the MCC of coagulation necrosis?

A

Intercellular accumulation of lactate

31
Q

Tissues presenting pale (ischemic) infarctions rather than hemorrhagic (red) ones?

A

Heart, kidney, spleen

32
Q

Tissues presenting hemorrhagic(red) infarctions rather than pale (ischemic) ones?

A

Lungs, small bowel, testicle

33
Q

Excess alcohol consumption activates … and … and leads to …….

A

Pancreatic lipase and phospholipase.
Hydrolysis of TGs in fat cells with the release of FAs. (enzymatic fat necrosis)
Calcium combines with the FAs to produce soap. (saponification). Dystrophic calcification commonly occurs in areas of saponification.

34
Q

Situations that I have fibrinoid necrosis

A
  1. Immune vasculitis (PN, HSP)
  2. Malignant HTN
  3. Reumatic fever
35
Q

Corticosteroid destruction of B and T lymphocytes is an example of …

A

Apoptosis
