Q

What are von ebner glands?

A

Q

Why might a tooth become ankylosed?

A

-trauma that destroys the PDL so only osteoblasts are available to head the damaged site.

Q

Metaplasia

A

reversible switch from one adult cell type to another (like columnar to squamous in respiratory tract in smokers)

19
Q

Dysplasia

A

disorderly growth by non-neoplastic growth of tissue (characterized by pleomorphism, hyperchromatism, loss of normal spatial org)

20
Q

What cell has dendritic morphology and is located in the stratum spinosum (not basale?

A

Langerhans cells (is an antigen trap)

21
Q

What cell has a rounded morph and is located in the stratum basale?

A

Merkel’s Cells

22
Q

What cells has rounded morph and is located in the basale AND and spinosum?

A

Lymphocytes

23
Q

The basement membrane is made up of what?

A

Basal Lamina (lamina lucida and lamina densa) + lamina reticularis

24
Q

What are the two key components of the lamina lucida in the basal lamina>

A
  • bullous pemphigoid antigen

- Type VII collagen

25
What are the two key components of the lamina densa in the basal lamina?
- Type IV collagen | - Type VII collagen
26
What is the resident cell pop of the lamina propria?
- fibroblast - monocyte - basophil - plasma cell - endothelial cell
27
What do Mast Cells do?
secrete inflammatory mediators like histamine and heparin
28
What do plasma cells do?
synthesis of immunoglobulins
29
What do neutrophils do?
phagocytic cell that neutralizes antigens

34
What characteristic does lichen planus have?
T-lymphocyte and langerhans cell hyperplasia infiltration
35
What is benign inflammation and desquamation of the epithelial layer?
geographic tongue
36
Can leukoplakia be scraped off?
No
37
What is notable about leukoplakia?
It is considered precancerous
38

39
keratin pearls and invasive islands of malignant squamous epithelial cells are signs of...
squamous cell carcinoma
40
What is mucosal pemphigoid?
Accumulation of IgG and C3 along the basement membrane that causes separation of basement membrane layers since pemphigoid adhesion antigen is found in the lamina lucida. Female biased (2:1)
41
What is the Nikolsky sign?
Sign for pemphogoid where mucous membrane separates with light force
42
Condition where structures of ectodermal origin do not develop. What are these structures?
Ectodermal dysplasia: hair, eyebrows, eye lashes, teeth, sweat glands
43
What is a peripheral ossifying fibroma? Cancerous? What does it look like histologically/
-maturation of pyogenic granuloma. Thought to be reactive not neoplastic so not cancerous. gingival mass with islands of calcified material (from periosteum)
