Growth Disturbance Flashcards
Failure of development of an organ
Agenesis
Failure of cell growth after development
Aplasia
Developed grown organ but it’s undersized
Hypoplasia
Shrinkage of the cell
Atrophy
Increased size of the cell
Hypertophy
Increased number of the cells
Hyperplasia
Reversible transformation of the cell from its type another type to adapt a stressful stimulus
Metaplasia
Barret’s esophagus and leukoplakia are examples of:
Metaplasia
The presence of a tissue outside its normal site (gastric mucosa in mickel’s diverticulum
Hyteropia
Hairy leukoplakia is characteristic for:
AIDS
In Barret’s esophagus the epithelium turns from stratified squamous to:
Columnar epithelium with goblet cells
Disordered cell proliferation as colonic polyps (FAB) is
Dysplasia
Hyperplastic polyp is an example of hypertophy, Metaplasia, hyperplasia
Hyperplasia
All the followings are oncogenes except:
1-sis
2-src
3-APC
4-Ras
5-Erb
APC
Genes derived from mutation of naturally present genes are
Oncogenes
Genes that prevent proliferation and cause apoptosis of cancer cells.
Tumor suppressor genes
What is the adenoma carcinoma sequence of gene mutations
Mutation of Ras and Myc then inactivation of APC and P53
Achondroplasia is a autosomal dominant or recessive gene?
Autosomal dominant gene
In autosomal recessive genes, COMA refers to;
C: Cystic fibrosis, kartagener syndrome
O: Osteopetrosis
M: MYH associated polyposis
A: Surgery sickle cell Anemia
