Muscle PP 2 Flashcards
Segmental Regeneration
Degenerate segments removed by MOs
Replaced by satellite cells
Fibrosis
Occurs secondary to significant inflammation, necrosis and hemorrhage
Osseous metaplasia
Secondary to hemorrhage
Woven bone production
What does vitamin E/ Selenium deficiency cause in pigs
Mulberry heart disease
fast-growing, healthy-looking pigs, affected pigs in nursery phase
Eosinophilic myositis (K9)
Muscles of mastication
May progress to atrophic myositis
Autoimmune disease targeting type 2 myocytes
Neosporosis (K9)
Neospora caninum
Ingesting infected tissue (aborted calves)
Necropurulent myositis
Myasthenia gravis (K9)
Generalized muscle weakness
↓ # of ACh receptors at myoneural junction
Maybe megaesophagus
Equine polysaccharide storage myopathy (EPSM)
Common genetic defect
Accumulation of polysacc aggregates in type 2 myocytes
Repeated bouts of myodegeneration → m. atrophy
Exertional Rhabdomyolysis other names
Azoturia
Monday morning disease
Setfast
Blackwater
Exertional Myopathy
CS of Exertional Rhabdomyolysis
Sudden stiff gate, reluctant to move, muscle swelling (gluteal), sweating
↑ CK and AST
Factors of Exertional Rhabdomyolysis
Signs during or immediately after exercise
High grain feeding and lack of regular exercise
Exertional Rhabdomyolysis pathogenesis
Muscle degeneration → myoglobinemia → nephrosis → myoglobinuria → renal failure → acidosis → shock → death
Forms of Exertional Rhabdomyolysis
“Typing up” - less severe form
Paralytic myoglobinuria/ monday morning disease- more severe form
Lesions of Exertional Rhabdomyolysis
Muscles are pale pink or diffusely red-tinged
Hyaline degeneration and necrosis
Hyperkalemic Periodic Paralysis (HYPP) in horses
Genetic disease (one copy of gene)
Muscle twitching and shaking episodes
Quarterhorses
