Q

This image shows a stomach what is wrong

A

27
Q

Can the liver regenerate after an acute injury

A

Yes, quiescent cells can regenerate

28
Q

Can liver regenerate after repeated injury

A

No fibrosis will occur—> leading to modular regeneration/cirrhosis of the liver

29
Q

Identify the pathologies of the liver

A

top left: normal
Bottom left: cirrhosis
Top right: lipidosis

30
Q

What do both of these stains of the liver show

A

Cirrhosis—> increase in fibrosis connective tissue

31
Q

What stain stains the fibrous CT blue to identify cirrhosis of the liver

A

Trichrome stain

32
Q

How does the heart and skeletal muscle respond to reversible injury

A

Atrophy and hypertrophy

33
Q

How does the heart respond to irreversible injury? What is its regenerative capacity

A

Cardiomyocytes are permanent cells and therefore can’t regenerate—> outcome is fibrosis/scaring

34
Q

What is concentric hypertrophy

A

Thickening of the outside of the heart towards the lumen, add sarcomeres on top

35
Q

What is eccentric hypertrophy

A

Caused by addition of sacromeres to the side of the heart allowing for enlargement and dilation

36
Q

Identify the tissue type? Identify normal vs abnormal? What is causing abnormality?

A

Cardiomyocytes
Left: normal
Right: abnormal- myocardial fibrosis

37
Q

What are the key forms of neurological injury

A
  1. Compression
  2. Necrosis
  3. Degeneration
38
Q

How does the brain respond to injury and heal

A

Minimal regeneration of nerve fibers or neurons, but does not heal via fibrosis but damage leaves cavitation

39
Q

Does the brain heal by fibrosis

A

No, damage results in cavitation

40
Q

What is anthracosis

A

Exogenous black pigment found in lungs as a result of air pollutants

41
Q

What does the following image of the lung show

A

anthracosis

42
Q

How is melanin formed

A

Oxidation of tyrosine

43
Q

What is the endogenous pigment lipofuscin

A

“Wear and tear” pigment, age indicator

44
Q

What does the endogenous pigment ceroid show

A

Pathogenic indicator, associated with vitamin E deficiency

45
Q

Both images show melanin pigmentation, which is benign and which is malignant

A

left: benign- look more like discoloration marks rather than masses
Right: more like black masses

46
Q

What do both these histologies show? What is the difference between them and how do you know

A

both show melanin
Left: malignant melanoma- can tell due to high cellular atypica
Right: pigment are incontinence- benign reaction to inflammation

47
Q

Describe the mechanism in which cooper deficiency causes a fading in coat color of sheep and cattle

A

Melanin is formed by oxidation of tyrosine which requires a copper containing enzyme tyrosinase, therefore copper deficiency—> decreased melanin

48
Q

What causes jaundice coloration

A

Presence of bilirubin

49
Q

What causes hematin (brown) coloration

A
  1. Artifact of Formica acid and heme
  2. Liver flukes
50
Q

How would you describe this pigmentation

A

jaundice- excess bilirubin as a result of liver tumor

51
Q

How would you describe this pigmentation

A

Hematin

52
Q

What is the mechanism that normally makes us avoid gout

A

Blood uric acid uses enzyme Uricase to form Allantoin which is then excreted in urine

53
Q

How does gout occur

A

Increase in blood uric acid due to lack of uricase enzyme so not converted to allantoin

54
Q

What does the following image show

A

gout crystals

55
Q

What is the most common form of amyloid/amyloidosis in animals

A

Reactive secondary to inflammation- amyloid A deposits accumulate as acute phase proteins produced during inflammation

56
Q

Where are amyloid deposits commonly found

A

Kidney, liver, spleen, and lymph nodes

57
Q

Which image is normal? What is abnormality?

A

left: normal
Right: abnormal: amyloidosis

58
Q

What is wrong here and what stain was used

A

amyloidosis identified with Congo red stain

59
Q

What is wrong here and what stain was used

A

amyloidosis identified with congo red stain that turned apple green under polarized light

60
Q

What is the difference between dystrophic calcification and metastatic calcification

A
  1. Dystrophic calcification: localized increase in calcium, blood calcium levels are normal
  2. Metastatic calcification: blood Ca2+ levels are increased-> hypercalcemia
61
Q

In general what is indicated by the arrows in both pictures
