chapter 2: cell response Flashcards
4 aspects of disease process
etiology: cause
pathogenesis:biochem process
morphologic changes: struct alterations in cells/organs
clinical manifestations: conseq of changes
etiology
genetic: multifact
acquired
all forms of disease start with what
molecular or structural alterations in cells
reversible functional and structural responses to changes in physiologic states, some pathologic that allows cell to survive and continue to function
adaption
examples of adaptions
hypertrophy hyperplasia metaplasia pregnancy atrophy pathologic stimuli
cell death happens when and from what
adaption is not achieved
ischemia
ifection
toxins
nutrient deprivation triggers what
autophagy
calcium deposited at sites of cell death is called
pathologic calcification
what is the most common stimulus for hypertrophy
increased workload
uterine hypertrophy process
estrogenic hormones act on SM on estrogen receptors
-increased synthesis of SM cells
3 basic steps in molecular pathogenesis of cardiac hypertrophy
integrated actions of mechanical sensors
-GFs, IGF1, FGF, a adrenergic agonists
signal transduction
- pi3 kinase/AKT pathway (exercised induced hypertrophy)
- GPCR: pathologic hypertrophy
Activation of txn factors
-mef2, nfat, gata4
when does physiologic hyperplasia occur
when need to increase fnct capacity of hormone sensitive organs
need compensatory increase after damage or resection
examples of physiologic hyperplasia
erythropoietin in blood cells
liver regen
glandular epithelium prolif of female breast at puberty
pathologic hyperplasia from
excessive or inappropriate actions of hormones or GF acting on target cells
separate from cancer but can increase chance of cancer
can be from viral infections
pathologic hyperplasia example
endometrial hyperplasia
-abnormal menstrual bleeding
BPH
papillomaviruses
2 mechanisms of hyperplasia
GF driven proliferation of mature cells
increased output of new cells from tissue stem cells
atrpohy: physiologic
embryonic structures going away
atrophy: pathological causes
WINE Blood Pressure
decreased workload
loss innervation
inadequate nutrition
loss endocrine stim
decreased blood
increased pressure
atrophy of the brain
narrows gyri
widens sulci
cellular changes in atrophy
less mitochondria
reduced RER
decreased metabolic demand
mechanisms of atrophy
decreased protein syn
increased protein degradation
some cell debris within autophagic vacuoles resist digestion and persist in cytoplasm called
residual bodies
lipofuscin granules
-brown discoloration of tissue
types of caner in barrett esophagus
adenocarcinomas: glandular
myositis ossificans
bone formation in muscle
after intramuscular hemorrhage
reversible cell injury: 4 categories
reduced oxidative phos
cell swelling from change in ion concent and water influx
alterations in organelles
blebbing of PM
alterations in organelles during reversible cell injury
detachment of ribosomes from ER = decre prot syn
clumping of nuclear chromatin = dna damage
cytoskeletal damage
causes of cell injury
PICO NIG
physical agents
immunologic reactions: autoimmune (end) virus (exog)
chemical agents and drugs
oxygen deprivation
nutritional imbalance
infectious agents
genetic derangements: def of proteins
2 things recognized under light microscope in reversible injury
cellular swelling
fatty change
- hypoxic injury
- cells dep on fat metab
- Lipid vacuoles in cytoplasm
first manifestation of almost all forms of cell injury
cell swelling
cell swelling if see small clear vacuoles in cytoplasm what is it and called
pinched off ER
hydropic change or vacuolar degeneration
morphology of necrosis
NIG DM
nuclear changes
increased eosinophilia in H&E stains
glass appearance
discontinuities in PM and organele membranes
myelin figures
caseous necrosis
tuberculosis infection
cheese like white appearacne
granuloma
fat necrosis
areas of fat destructrion from release of activated pancreatic lipases
chalky-white areas
FAs comine with calcium
immune reactions involving BVs
complex antigens and antibodies in wall of arterires
bright pink amorphous appearance H and E stains
fibrinoid necrosis
necrotic cells and cell debris left over provide site for deposition of calcium salts
dystrophic calcification
depletion of ATP to ______ of mormal levels has widespread effects on critical cellular systems
5-10%
mitochondrial damage from
increased Ca2+
ROS
oxygen deprivation
hypoxia and toxins
cyclophilin D
structural component of MPTP
-cyclosporine targets this to reduce injury to cell
3 major consequences of mitochondrial damage
formation of mitochondrial permeability transition pore
abnormal oxidative phos and ROS
mitochondrial leakage of apoptotic proteins
increased Ca2+ intracellular affect on mitochondria
1) opens MPTP and no ATP
2) activates enzymes: phospholipases,endonucleases, ATPases etc
3) apoptosis: direct activation caspases and increase mitochond perm
generation of free radicals
redox rxns in normal metabolic processes
absorption of radiant energy
rapid bursts of ROS from activated leukocytes
enzymatic metab of exogenous chemicals or drugs
transition metals
NO
redox rxns free radicals
O2*, H202, *OH
uv light and xrays can hydrolyze
water into *OH and H free radical
rapid bursts of ROS from activated leukocyte enzymes
NAPDH oxidase in PM
xanthine oxidase intracellular enzyeme
