33
Hyperplasia
Increase in the number of cells that results
Still increase size of tissue
34
Difference between hyperplasia and neoplasia
Hyperplasia is controlled and neoplasia is uncontrolled by stimulus
35
Atrophy
When tissue fully developed
Had all these cells originally but now they have gone away
Hypoplasia - is when the tissue is not fully developed from immunological standpoint but there is fewer cells
36
Mechanisms of cell injury (different from causes)
Atp depletion
Gene destruction
Membrane disruption
Metabolic disturbance
37
Etiologic
The cause of the disease
38
Causes of cell injury
Oxygen loss [hypoxia, ischemia]
Physical destruction
Genetic damage
Workload imbalance [like w hypertrophy- just making cells bigger]
Nutrition
Age
Immune disfunction
Toxins
39
Connect infarction, hypoxia, and ischemia
Ischemia means there is less blood flow to a tissue
Which results in hypoxia where the tissue is not oxygenated enough
If it gets really bad then it becomes an infarction where the tissue becomes necrotic
40
Reversible cell injury
Hydropic degeneration leads to sodium and water in cell which causes cytoplasmic vacuoles
41
Ischemia -reperfusion injury
This is when there is low blood flow then there is blood flow and oxygen which leads to ROS production which furthers tissue damage

56
Compare contrast necrosis and apoptosis
Necrosis the cell expands and there is inflammatory response ->pyknosis, karyorrhexis, karyolysis.
Apoptosis. The cell shrinks -> apoptotic bodies that macrophages eat
- no inflammatory response
57

82
Autoimmune diseases are wit which hypersensitivity?
Type 3 immunocomplex
83
Arthus reaction
(Cutaneous vasculitis)
IgG binds the antigen and makes a immunocomplex
this immunocomplex attracts complement
Then binds to FC receptors in leukocytes and mast cells and creates permeability and a local inflammatory response

Contact dermatitis happens with hypersensitivity four because it’s going to be the one that happens delayed for example with poison ivy where TH1 release is IS gamma and results in a localized skin bump and redness
86
Hypersensitivity versus auto immunity
They are both inappropriate immune responses
Hypersensitivity is against an allergen or antigen an auto immunity is against self
87
Interferons type 1
Antiviral and promote inflammation and stop the virus from replicating
Recruits macrophages and T cells
Bad in diabetes type 1 where it’s autoimmune and targeting pancreaTic beta cells
88
Diabetes type l mechanism
PRR activated which induces type l interferon which attracts macrophages and t cells to the pancreatic bata cell, it also increases the mhc1 class on the cell which makes the CD8 t cell kill it
The broken down beta cell pieces will be presented by APC to CD4 T cells and macrophages too
T cell will make cytokines the that will be picked up by nearby beta cell
Increase inflammation w MHC class one antigen presenting cells PRR T cells macrophages MHC2
89
Systemic lupus enythematus
Nets bind nuclei acid and nuclei acid binds autoantibody → complexactivates dendrite cell →interferon type l→ increases TH2 which increases the bee cells and TH 17 which increases NETs
90
Celiac’s disease
The auto immune disease might be type one or type four
Uses T cells and macrophages it attacks the villi of the gastrointestinal tract and reduces absorption
91
True or false a robust normal response to self is good
F should have a deficient response to self otherwise it is auto immunity
92
