lecture 6 exam 1 Flashcards
With irreversible cell injury there is an increase in ___ as time goes on
A) cell fxn
B) cell death (biochemical change)
C) ultrastructural changes
D) light microscopy changes
E) gross morphological changes
B, C, D, E
What cells are more vulnerable to cell swelling and hypoxia
cardiomyocytes • proximal renal tubule epithelium • hepatocytes • endothelium • CNS neurons, oligodendrocytes, astrocytes (cytotoxic edema)
Most common expression of cell injury
acute cell swelling
Most common etiology (cause) of acute cell swelling
hypoxia
toxic agents
Describe 3 step pathogenis of acute cell swelling
injury to the cell
Na/H2O in and K out (in cell/organelles)
Extensive vaculation/swelling
This organ is a gross example of ___

cell swelling
This is an example of ballooning degeneration

Cutaneous vesicles, vesicular exanthema, snout, pig. Etiology: vesicular exanthema of swine virus, a calicivirus (vesivirus).
Which side is normal cells and which side is necrotic and how can you tell?

H2O uptake dilutes the cytoplasm • Cells are enlarged with pale cytoplasm • May show increased cytoplasmic eosinophilia • Nucleus in normal position, with no morphological changes

What is the etiology of this ballooning degeneration

Etiology : Swinepox virus
This is an example of what cellular damage

lipidosis
This is the gross exam consequences of what type of cellular damage

lipidosis
this change can be physiologic

Physiologic: in late pregnancy (pregnancy toxemia) and heavy early lactation (ketosis) in ruminants Reminder: • Ketone bodies: are alternative fuel for cells • Produced in the liver by mitochondria • Convertion of acetyl CoA from fatty acid oxidation=LIPOLYSIS
Pale, soft, friable and sharply demarcated from viable tissue by a zone of inflammation

necrosis
Light microscopy changes of necrotic cells in CYTOPLASM


Common cause of coagulative necrosis

Ischemia in all solid organs except the brain
Identify 1-4

1) central coagulative necrosis
2) leukocyte barrier
3) congestion and hemorrhage
4) normal cells
This degeneration necrosis is caused by what and is also named what?

Cause: Vitamin E/selenium deficiency
Condition Synonyms: Nutritional myopathy, white muscle disease
what general cell injury is this

enchephalomalacia
liquefactive necros
This lesion is affecting the white matter of the brain

leukoenchephalomalacia
Lesion affecting the white matter of the spianl cord (outside part of spinal cord)

leukomyleomalacia
true or false
This lesion found primarily in the gray matter of the spinal cord is called polioenchephalomalacia

false
poliomyelomalacia
Describe the pathogenisis for leukoenchephalomalacia
Pathogenesis: Ingestion of Fusarium moniliforme containing Fumonisin B1 Toxin-Producing Moldy Corn > Sphingolipid Synthesis Inhibition > Direct Cellular Toxicity > Leukoencephalomalacia
true or false
Ingestion of Fusarium moniliforme containing Fumonisin B1 Toxin-Producing Moldy Corn causes leukoencephalomalacia in pigs, horses, and chickens
false
in pigs it causes pulmonary edema
in horses and chix causes leukoencephalomalacia
Leukomyelitis (inflammation of white matter in the spianl cord) can result from leukomyelomalacia . What is the MDx, if the Etiology is sarcosytis neurona?

MDx: Multifocal necrohemorrhagic (leuko) myelitis
