Fundamentals of Pathology Flashcards
Decrease/Increase in size
Atrophy/Hypertrophy
Increase in Number
Hyperplasia
One cell type to another
Metaplasia
Size, shape, function change such as sickle cell anemia
Dysplasia
Disorganization- CANCER
Anaplasia
Defective devolopment
Hypoplasia
Lack of development
Aplasia
Absense of growth
Agenesis
Coagulation Infarction
MI
Liquefaction degeneration
Brain
Caseous degeneration
TB, single COIN lesion= Ghon Complex
Enzymatic degeneration
Pancreas (Head of pancreas)
Fatty degeneration
Liver
Gummatous ***
Tertiary Syphilis
Wallerian
Peripheral Nerves (Distal–>Proximal)
This includes the lymph capillary network, the lymph nodes and lymph organs. There are mobile and tissue macrophages.
Mononuclear Phagocyte System (MPS) aka Reticuloendothelial System (RES)
Immunity cells: Kupffer cells*-->a Alveolar macrophages-->b Microglial cells-->c Histocytes or fixed macrophages-->d Dust cells-->e
a) Liver
b) Alveoli
c) Brain
d) Tissue
e) Lung
What are the four immunoglobulins?
IgA, IgG, IgE, IgM
Immunoglobulin deals with milk, membranes “mommy’s milk”
IgA
Immunoglobulin smallest, MOST NUMEROUS
IgG
Immunoglobulin deals with AllegIEs and parasites?
IgE
Immunoglobulin deals with first response, largest “marine”
IgM
What type of immunity involves antibodies B cells. Found in SPLEEN, TONSILS, LYMPH, GI and BONE MARROW
Humoral Immunity
What type of immunity deals with Sensitized lymphocyte T CELLS (THYMUS). Protects the body from OWN DEFENSE SYSTEM, BACTERIA, VIRUSES, and PRIONS
Cellular Immunity
