A
  1. Apoptosis (fragmentatiom, shrinkage, phagocutosis)
  2. Necrosis (cell swelling, membrane leakage, inflamation)
  3. Autophagy (lysosomal catabolism, atrophy, phagocytosis)
  4. Exfoliation (programmed cell death, sloughing)
  5. others

Q

what is the processes of the PCD apoptosis?

A
  1. cell fragmentation and rapid phagocytosis of fragments.
22
Q

what are the advantages of apoptosis?

A

there is no leakage of cell content into tissue, it is programmed, and happens have cell breaking into fragments with intact cell membranes, and those phospholipids then flipping.

23
Q

what is the mechanism of DNA damage? (what happens in response?)

A

1.either a strand can break or adducts can interact (R+), the p53 is activated and eiher DNA repair or apoptosis.

24
Q

what happens in necrosis?

A
  1. passive and catastrophic failure of many vital cell functions
    2, lack of ATP
  2. failure of ATP-dependent ion pumps in membranes
  3. leakage of cytoplasmic constitudents
25
Q

what are examples of failure of ATP-dependent ion pumps in membranes?

A
sodium ion flux (leads to cell swelling)
hydroogen ions (acidosis)
calcium ions moved into cytosol
basically leads to many dysfunction's.
26
Q

what are examples of cytoplasmic constituents

A
  1. serum indicators of necrosis
  2. pro-inflammatory molecules (DAMs)
    this are host responses
27
Q

describe necrosis

A

its the enzymatic digestion and leakage of cellular contents, which follows the acute swelling of cells.

28
Q

what leads to cell swelling>

A

increasing [Na+] and [H+] through a cation channel

29
Q

what leads too cell deat (ion [ ] )

A

increased [Ca++] leads to enzyme leakage

30
Q

what is excitotoxicity?

A

various ligands of NMDA (glutamate receptors activate calcium influx.
low doses=excitation of neurons
high doeses= Necrosis of neurons

31
Q

necrosis can elicit what kind of reponse?

A

inflammatory

32
Q

what is a concern with cell death and inflammation?

A

after cell death, cell leakage of damange-associated molecular paterns (DAMPs) which reacts with receptors on cytokine producing cells (macrophages). this helps alet the immune system to danger.

33
Q

what are some serum indicatiors of necrosis?

A
for myocardium (Trp1 and CK, increases around 20 hours post)
for Liver (ALT) [levels] increase around 21 following the release, with mg/kg in corn oil.
34
Q

what are a few mechanisms to detect apoptosis.

A

DNA ladders, morphology, blebs, phagosomes, flow cytometry, TUNEL nick end- labbelling with TdT incorporation of dUTP, caspage cleavage, annexin labelling.

A

hemodynamic responses and microvascular permeability

36
Q

what are the components of the inflammatory response to the plasma protein response?

39
Q

what are the 6 basic responses to tissue injury (steps?)

A
  1. hemostais and fibrionolysis (stop bleeding, temporary matrix for healing)
  2. platelet activation and secretion (plug leaks, and initiate tissue repair)
  3. increased blood flow
  4. microvascular permeability (increase supply of cells and proteins)
  5. monocyte recruitment and phagocytosis (remove debris and stimulate repair)
  6. tissue repair (reconstruct or replace damaged tissues)
40
Q

describe hyperemia and congestion

A

hyperemia is increased inflow (arteries vasodilated) happening from exercise/ inflammation?
congestion is decreased outflow (viens vasodilated) caused by local obstructions.

41
Q

vasodilation does what?

A

increases blood flow.

42
Q

during inflammation what can happen?

A

increased blood flow, arteriole/venule dilation, expansion of capitary bed, nutrophil emigration towards blood flow, and leakage of plasma proteins, which leads to edema (increased fluid in bedding).

A
