histo Flashcards
how long do neuts last
blood and tisssue
blood - days
tissue - hours
shape of nucleus of monocyte
bean
what vit required for collagen formation
vit C
collagen I
bone tendons ligaments
collagen II
cartilage, IVDs
collage III
reticulin - delicate support - bone marrow liver
collagen IV
BM
collagen VII
fibrils that link to BMs
structure of elastin
branching fibres, central elastin core with surrounding fibrillin microfibrils
marfan syndrome mutation
fibrillin-1
what are collagen and elastin fibres found in to constitute ECM
ground substance
two components of ground substance
GAGs
Glycoproteins
what are proteoglycans
GAGs
what is hyularonic acid
a GAG
what are fibronectin, fibrillin, laminin,
glycoproteins
difference between GAG and glycoprotien
GAG - unbranched polysaccharide
glycoprotein - glycosylated protein
what does ECM constitute of
fibres (collagen and elastin) and ground substance
what remodels ECM
matrix metalloproteases
where is connective tissue proper
surround organs
3 types of specific connective tissue
bone, cartilage, adipose
what does basal lamina surround
muscle cells, adipocytes, schwann cells
what is mesothelium
simple squamous lining body cavity
where is stratified cuboidal
pancreas, salivary gland
3 types of intercellular junctions
- tight
- adherens
- gap
main protein components of tight junctions
occludins and claudins
3 types of adherens junctions
- zonula adherens
- desomsome
- hemidesmesome
structure of zonular adherens junction
actin - catenin - cadherin : cadherin - catenin - actin
structure of desmosome
intermediate fil - plaque - cadheren : cadheren
structure of hemidesmosome
intermediate fil - integrin - BM
typical location of junctions in junctional complex
apex - tight
middle - adherens
base - gap
3 problems in hypoxic cell
- anaerobic glycolysis - decreases pH
- ATP depletion - Na/K pumps fail - increased Na and decreased protein synthesis
- increased Ca in cytosol - decreased cell functioning, chromatin clumping, cell and mitochondrial swelling
2 components of irreversible cell injury
- severe irreversible mitochondrial dysfunction
2. membrane damage - necrosis
processes leading to membrane damage
decreased O2 for mitochondria leads to: anaerobic glycolysis and pH, decreased ATP (decreased protein and phospholipid synthesis), abnormal oxidative phosphorylation (ROS), increased Ca in cytosol (activates breakdown proteins), release of apoptotic proteins
pH and ROS leads to increase phospholipid breakdown
increased phospholipid breakdown and decreased synthesis - together with breakdown and pro-apooptotic proteins
= membrane damage
what is fibrinoid necrosis
immune complex deposition in vessels
