Pathoma Flashcards
Growth adaptations?
an increase, decrease or change in stress on an organ can result in growth adaptations.
Hyperplasia and hypertrophy differences?
Hypertrophy is an increase in the size. Hyperplasia is an increase on the number of cells.
Hypertrophy involves what type of mechanism?
gene activation, protein synthesis and production of organelles.
Hyperplasia and hypertrophy in permanent tissues?
cannot make new cells and undergo hypertrophy only example: cardia muscle, nerve. or response to systemic hta.
EXAMPLE OF HYPERTROPHY?
CARDIAC MYOCYTES UNDERGO HYPERTROPHY IN RESPONSE HTA SYSTEMIC.
Pathologic hyperplasia can progress ?
dysplasia and eventually cancer. exception HPB.
Atrophy. definition.
a decrease in stress leads to a decrease in organ size example: decreased hormonal stimulation in uterus.
Which is the via that occurs atrophy?
via ubiquitin-proteosome degradation of the cytoskeleton and autophagy of cellular components.
what happens in ubiquitin-proteosome degradation?
Intermediate filament of the cytoskeleton are tagged with ubiquitin and destroyed by proteasomas.
what happens in autophagy?
cellular components involves generation of autophagic vacuoles, these fuse with lysosomes whose hydrolytic enzymes breakdown cellular components.
Metaplasia definition
most commonly involves change of one type of surface epithelium to another or a change in stress on an organ leads to a change in cell type
example of metaplasia.
Barret esophagus ( cells are better able to hadle the new stress.
Hyperplasia involves de production of?
of new cells from stem cells with them produce the new cell type.
¿What changes occurs in Barret esophagus ?
nonkeratinizing squamous epithelium to nonciliated, mucin-producing columnar cells
Metaplasia is reversible?
yes, removal od the driving stressor.
The persistent of stress in metaplasia can progress a cancer?
yes, first dysplasia and eventually result in cancer.
which is the metaplasia exception in where not occurs dysplasia?
Apocrine metaplasia of breast, which carries no increases the risk of cancer.
Which is the roll of Vitamin A for differentiation of specialized surfaces (conjunctiva)?
the thin squamous lining of the conjunctiva undergoes into stratified keratinizing squamous epithelium is called keratomalacia.
which is the Mesenchymal tissues chance in metaplasia?
connective tissue whithin muscle changes to bone during healing after trauma (myositis ossificans).
Dysplasia. Definition?
Disordered in cellular growth.
example the dysplasia?
NIE OR CERVICAL INTRAEPITHELIAL NEOPLASIA (CIN).
Aplasia definition?
is failure of cell production during embryogenesis. (unilateral renal agenesis).
Hypoplasia definition?
is a decrease in cell production during embryogenesis resulting in a relative small organ.
Cellular injury?
occurs when a stress exceeds the cell’s ability’s to adapt. And depend of the type of stress and the type of cell affected.
