Flashcards - Path
fibrinoid necrosis
necrotic damage to vessel walls (fibrin complexes with immunoglobulins), pink - malignant hypertension, vasculitis, preeclampsia
intrinsic apoptosis
mitochondrial cytochrome C leaks when bcl-2 is inactivated (increased BAX); caspases induced by Apaf-1, bcl-2 inhibits Apaf-1
extrinsic apoptosis
FAS ligand binds with CD95 - activates caspases; TNF binds to TNF receptor - activates caspases
Anti-TNF risks
granumatous inflammation inhibition - tuberculosis
primary amyloidosis
deposits of Ig light chains - MM –> nephrotic syndrome, restrictive cardiomyopathy, hepatomegaly, neuropathy
secondary amyloidosis
serum amyloid A from chronic inflammation (IBD, RA)
P-glycoprotein
multidrug resistance protein - adrenal cell carcinoma - pumps out toxins/chemotherapeutics
arsenic
SCC of skin, lung cancer, angiosarcoma
napthylamine
urothelial carcinoma of bladder - in cigarette smoke
vinyl chloride
angiosarcoma of liver
