46
Q

Cause or origin of the disease; might be genetic factors or acquired factors

A

ETIOLOGY

47
Q

Atrophy of disuse

59
Q

Diminished/loss blood supply (ischemia)
e.g. brain atrophy during atherosclerosis

A

Vascular Atrophy

60
Q

    estrogen stimulation
A

Loss of endocrine hormone stimulation

62
Q

as in growth of tumors, atrophy occurs when tumors suppress the blood supply or by directly putting
pressure to surrounding healthy cells

A

Pressure Atrophy

63
Q

due to increase in metabolism resulting to increase of metabolites and loss of the actual cell space

A

Exhaustion Atrophy

64
Q
  • it cant cause a disease
  • Change in one cell type to another
  • Due to reprogramming of existing stem cells in normal tissue,
    or of undifferentiated mesenchymal cells in order to withstand adverse environment
