Q

necrotic cell death?

A

trauma and cell membrane ruptures

19
Q

autophagy

A

cell eats itself

20
Q

what type of cell death dont you get inflammation

A

autophagy and apoptosis

21
Q

3 types of necrosis

A

coagulative colliquative and ceseating

22
Q

coagulative

A

loss of nuclei

ghost

23
Q

colliquative

A

lots of inflammatory cells which forms a puss and you lose tissue architecture

24
Q

4 ways of congenital disease

A

Chromosomal abnormality
Structural abnormality in chromosome structure
DNA mutation
Mechanism for regulating gene expression

25
Hyperplasia
increase in cell number
26
Hypertrophy
increase in cell size
27
Atrophy
decrease in size and number of cells
28
Dysplasia
cells which look abnormal and their architectural arrangement in the tissue is abdnormal
29
Metaplasia
conversion of one type of differentiated tissue into another/abnormal change in the nature of a tissue
30
what are the ion channels important for
maintaining the sodium calcium and potassium conc
31
what may be formed if excessive fat stores in hepatocytes are oxidised
free radicals
32
what can free radicals mean for the liver
damage and fibrosis
33
what may fat accumulation do to hepatocytes
make them resistant to insulin
34
fat accumulation and liver blood flow
can impede bloodin inusoids
35
if excessive fat activates angiotensis what happens
hypertension
36
what is pyknosis
when chromatin condenses during cell death
37
what is karyolsis
nuclear fading
38
what is karorrhexis
nuclear fragmentation
39
what causes karyolysis
DNAses | RNAses
40
example of coagulative necrosis
ischmic kidney
41
main cause of caseating necrosis
TB
42
which necrosis involves puss
colliquative
43
which necrosis involves lots of inflammatory cells
colliquative
