Q

Where are old RBC broken down?
What occurs to globin?
What occurs to haem?

A

BM, liver, spleen
Globin- metabolised into aa- reused protein synthesis
Haem- broken into biliverdin transport in blood
- iron bind transferrin for transport

Q

Explain bilirubin metabolism?

A

1) Reticuloendothelial cells- macrophages responsible maintenance of blood
2) Metabolise haemoglobin
3) Haemoglobin broken into- haem and globin
4) Globin broken down into amino acids (reused)
5) Haem broken iron and biliverdin
(catalysed haem oxygenase)
Iron- recycled
6) Biliverdin to bilirubin
(catalysed by biliverdin reductase)
Biliverdin reduced form unconjugated bilirubin (toxic)

8) Bloodstream unconjugated bilirubin binds albumin facilitate transport liver
9) Unconjugated bilirubin + Glucuronic acid form conjugated bilirubin (soluble)
(catalysed by glucuronyl transferase)
10) As conjugated blirubin water soluble allows excretion into duodemun in bile

9) In ileum bilirubin deconjugated by intestinal bacteria and converted urobilinogen (remove glucorinic)
10) 80% urobilinogen oxidised and bacteria converted stercobilin- faeces
11) 20% urobilinogen reabsorbed bloodstream- bound albumin- liver- recycled bile production
Small amount kidney- oxidised urobilin- excreted urine

16
Q

What is haemoglobin broken into?
What occurs to broken down?

A

Haem- iron and biliverdin
Globin- amino acids

17
Q

How are RBC produced?

A

Erythropoeisis

18
Q

What
Unconjugated
Conjugated
soluble

A

Unconjugated- lipid sol
Conjugated- water sol

19
Q

What gives faeces brown colour?

A

Stercoblin

20
Q

What does haem break into?
What catalyses?

A

Biliverdin and iron
catalysed haem oxygenase

21
Q

What does biliverdin converted into?
Catalysed?

A

Unconjugated bilirubin (toxic)
Biliverdin reductase

22
Q

What does unconjugated bilirubin bind to?
Why?

A

Albumin
Not water soluble just lipid- can’t transported blood

23
Q

What does unconjugated bilirubin form?
Where
Catalyst?

A

Unconjugated bilirubin + Glucuronic acid = Conjugated bilirubim
Catalyse- glucuronyl transferase
Liver

24
Q

What does conjugated bilirubin form?

A

In ileum bilirubin deconjugated by intestinal bacteria and converted urobilinogen (remove glucorinic)
10) 80% urobilinogen oxidised and bacteria converted stercobilin- faeces
11) 20% urobilinogen reabsorbed bloodstream- bound albumin- liver- recycled bile production
Small amount kidney- oxidised urobilin- excreted urine

25
Q

What happens to urobilinogen?

A

1) 80% urobilinogen oxidised- bacteria converts to stercobilin- faeces
2) 20% urobilinogen reabsorbed bloodstream- bound albumin- liver- recycled bile prod

Small amount kidney- urobilin- urine

26
Q

What gives faeces colour?

A

Stercoblin

28
Q

What is jaundice?

A

Yellow discolouration sclera and skin

29
Q

What are 3 main types jaundice?

A

1) Prehepatic
2) Hepatic
3) Posthepatic

30
Q

What occurs in prehepatic jaundice?

A

Excessive RBC breakdown
Overwhelm liver ability conjugate bilirubin
Raised lvls unconjugated bilirubin

Bilirubin that can be conjugated excreted normal but slight excess mean stool dark
Dark urine- conjugated excreted urine

31
Q

What occurs in hepatic jaundice?

A

Damage hepatic cells- liver lose ability conjugate bilirubin
Therefore raised conjugated and unconjugated bilirubin in blood

Enlarged liver, dark urine

32
Q

What occurs post hepatic jaundice?

A

Obstruction biliary drainage
Raised conjugated (liver works but unable get rid)
Pale stools- no sterocobilin

33
Q

State diff class of jaundice and what will be raised?

A
34
Q

State a cause of each jaundice?

A
35
Q

State signs diff jaundice?

A

Prehepatic- raised unconjugated
- brown stool
- normal/pale urine- no raise conj
Hepatic- raised unconjugated and conjugated
- brown (worse-clay)
- dark urine
Posthepatic- raised conjugated
- pale white stool
- dark urine

36
Q

Raised conjugated what type jaundice?

A

Posthepatic

37
Q

Raised unconjugated what type jaundice?

A

Prehepatic

38
Q

Raised conjugated and unconjugated what type jaundice?

A

Hepatic
