Q

proteoglycans
what are they composed from

define GROWTH FACTORS
GFs are produced by?

A

proteins that regulate cell proliferation, differentiation, and migration
- produced by cells involved in the same tissue repair response

16
Q

hemostasis and degeneration of the

A

goal: stop the bleeding
coagulation clumps platelets together
PLATELETS SUMMON GROWTH FACTORS + inflammatory cells :)

17
Q

degenerative phase - hemostasis

A

formation of a hematoma (necrosis of cells), and the start of inflammatory cell response

18
Q
  1. inflammation
    goal?
    how?
    VIPs?
A

inactivate injurious agent and to breakdown dead cells. replace injured tissue with healthy tissue
how? coordinate reaction of body tissues
key components: blood vessels, chemical mediators, CT, collagen

19
Q
  1. proliferation and migration
    granular tissue
A

endothelial cells begin to proliferate and start ANGIOGENESIS, channels of new blood vessels to transport o2 and nutrients to healing tissue
* granular tissue: rich network of developing tissue with connective tissue

20
Q

what are the steps for remodeling and maturation of tissue healing?

A
  1. contraction
  2. contracture
  3. tissue regeneration
  4. formation of scar tissue
  5. chronic wounds
21
Q
  1. tissue contraction
    myofibroblasts doooo…..
A

newly formed extracellular matrix comes together, causing shrinkage
myofribroblasts differentiate like smooth muscles and help shrink healing tissue

22
Q
  1. tissue contracture
    effects
    - what does this do to mobility?
A

excessive shrinkage + pulling of deeper tissue
- limit mobility and organ function
- arthrofibrosis : scarring and thick fibrotic capsule

23
Q
  1. tissue regeneration
    what kinds of cells restore OG function?
A

process of parenchymal cells to restore OG tissue

24
Q

what are the 3 types of cells for tissue regeneration?

A

1: permanent - regeneration does not happen :/ [cardiac myocytes, CNS neurons]
2: labile: continuously splits [skin, stem, GI]
3> stable: normally dont split but can undergo mitosis [kidney, hepatocytes]

25
Q
  1. tissue repair
A

scarring occurs when the cut extends under the surface layer

26
Q

chronic wounds..
- in what stage to they usually stay in?
- probable causes?

A
  • chronic wounds may stay in the inflammatory and proliferative phases
  • deficiency in growth factors
  • wrong biochemicals are present
27
Q

tissue repair goal

A

to attempt to restore tissue to OG function

28
Q

tissue repair depends on…

A
  • type of cell
  • type of damage incurred
  • other factors
29
Q

lung - tissue repair

A

regeneration can only happen if basement membrane is intact.
- if basement membrane is disrupted, healing must be done by repair [fibrosis and scar]

30
Q

digestive tract

A

gut cells slough off every 5 days..take 3 weeks for a complete turnover!!
gut health contribute to immune function + serotonin function!!

31
Q

peripheral nerves
need to maintain the…

A

when a nerve is cut it goes through myelin degeneration and axonal fragmentation
–w/in 24 hours, new axonal sprouts from central stumps
–need to maintain the neurotubules!

32
Q

skeletal composition

A

80 % - cortical
20 % - cancellous (spongy)

33
Q

bone loss occurs when

A

imbalance between destruction and production of bone cells

34
Q

bone: fracture healing

A
  1. inflammatory phase
  2. reparative phase
    3.Remodelin phase
35
Q

inflammatory phase - bone

A

occurs as inflmmatory cells arrive @ injured site

36
Q

reparative phase - bone

A

formation of soft callus formed @ around 2 weeks. once its immobilzed, hard callus replaces it. through enchondral ossification.

37
Q

fracture remodeling phase

A

disorganized bones replaced with lamellar bone. 10-30% replaced in adults due to microfractures

38
Q

factors that affect bone healing

A
  • type of bone
  • fracture site and type
    -treatment involved
    -treatment complicationst
39
Q

tendons and ligaments

A
  • composition 78% water, 20% collagen
    hemostasis begines immediately
    inflammatory during the 72 hours then proliferative 2-3 weeks
