Q

Cell injury: ischemic reperfusion

Free radicals created by

Apoptosis caused by

effects

A

o2 restored= xanthine dehydrogenase -> xanthine oxidate -> metabolizes purine catabolites (hypoxanthine +xanthine)

Purine catabolites accumulated bc of vATP = large amt of free radicals (superoxide, H2O2) when metabolized=membrane damage + mitochondrial Ca overload

Ph alterations, osmotic changes, inflammation, mitochondrial Ca overload==open mitochondrial permeability transition pore= ATP escapes=apoptosis

Q

Altered cell metabolism: Ethanol

rise in :
NAD/NADH ratio rise caused by
effects (4)

A

Ethanol metabolizes
to acetalhyde in cytoplasm
In mitochondria-Acetalhyde->acetate by ADH
Oxidized niacin -> NADH during ethanol-acetate conversion=^^^NAD/NADH ratio in liver=
Pyruvate->lactic acid=Lactic acidosis
Oxaloacetate->malate=prevents gluconeogenesis=fasting hypoglycemia
Glyceraldehyde3phosphate->glycerol3phosphate-combines with fatty acids= triglycerides in liver =hepatosteatosis
decreases citric acid cycle production of NADH=acetylcoa used for ketogenesis+lipogenesis =ketoacidosis + hepatoseatosis

Q
Ketogenesis
Triggers
Role of acetylcoA
Effect on oxaloacetate
Hepatocytes role
Mitochondria
A

Starvation/DM (no energy) =^B.oxidation cycle=^amt of acetylcoa-used in citric acid cycle, combines w oxaloacetate to =citrate
Oxaloacetate used in gluconeogenesis
when oxaloacetate depleted=^acetylcoa->ketone bodies (acetoacetate, acetone, B-Hydroxybutyrate)

forms ketones in mitochondria of hepatocytes

Q

Atrophy

Body cause

Cellular cause (2)

A

Decrease in cell and eventually organ size

Body cause: decreased-workload,pressure, blood supply/nutrition, hormonal stimulation

Cellular cause: increased catabolism-less organelles, imbalance between protein synthesis and degradation
Includes autophagy (self eating)

Q

Hypertrophic

Body cause

Cellular cause

A

Caused by increased workload

Cell:
hormonal stimulation, ^protein in ER/membrane/myofilaments/myochondrium NOT cell fluid

17
Q

Hyperplasia
Cause

Example

A

Results from growth factors stimulating cells to divide

Resection/damage of liver= regeneration
Hormonal: mammary glands/uterus while pregnant
Endometrial CA dt GH

18
Q

Metaplasia

Cause

Example

A

Pre-CA, reversible
Chronic irritation/injury/stress signal stem cells-new cellular pathway (bc cytokines/GFs)=new cell better able to handle stressor/injury
