Repair, Rgeneration, Fibrosis Flashcards
Most common collagen type in CT
Collagen type I
Temporary extracellular matter of plasma like matrix proteins that accumulate at injury site
Provisional matrix
Migration of cells according to the gradient of adhesive matrix substrates
Haptotaxis
Migration of cells directed by soluble ligands
Chemotaxis
Dried thrombus forming a barrier on wounded skin surface to avoid invasion of microorganisms
Scab or eschar
Disease caused by mutation in epidermal laminin
Epidermolysis bullosa
Immature cells that may differentiate into nearly all cell types
Pluripotent cells
Long linear polymers of specific repeating disaccharides
Glycosaminoglycans
Long, linear polymers of specific repeating disaccharides
Proteoglycans
Non stem cell that has little or no capacity for self renewal
Progenitor cell
Extracellular matrix protein that confers deformability to tissue
Collagen
Excess collagen deposition within tissue
Scarring or fibrosis
Principal proteinases involved in tissue remodeling
Matrix metalloproteinases
Differentiation of a stem cell from on cell type to form cells of another tissue type
Transdifferentiation
Cells that undergo self renewal and have capacity to differentiate into multiple mature lineages
Stem cell
