U2 LEC: CELL ADAPTATION Flashcards
Cellular responses to persistent sublethal injury, physical, biological, radiation, or chemical.
Cellular adaptation
Lethal injury refers to?
Necrosis
T/F: Tissue injury is reversible.
True

under Cellular Adaptation
- Atrophy
- Hypertrophy
- Hyperplasia
- Metaplasia
- Dysplasia
Represents cells to normal stimulation by hormones/endogenous chemical substances.
Physiologic
Most common physiologic adaptation
endometrium of uterus (estrogenic stimulation)
This refers to the cells having the ability to modulate their environment.
Pathologic
T/F: Pathologic adaptation can be from a trigger outside the body (e.g. drug).
True
The Cell Cycle has checkpoints to check if DNA is identical, otherwise it will?
- repair or;
- trigger apoptosis
T/F: Ideally, the number of cells produced = the number of cells that die.
True
Total number of cells in the body remain?
constant
These are continuously dividing cells.
Labile cells
Examples of labile cells
Epithelial cells lining the skin and gastrointestinal tract
Has low level of replication, only proliferates if there is stimulus
Stable cell / quiescent levels
Examples of Stable cell or quiescent levels
Parenchymal cells of the kidney
What occurs in labile and stable cells?
Regeneration
These cells are unable to proliferate, left the cell cycle, and repairs cells when damage occurs.
Permanent cells
Examples of permanent cells
Neurons
Increase in size due to increased number of component cells
Hyperplasia
Hyperplasia
hormonal stimulation
- Estrogen
- TSH
Hyperplasia
increased functional demand
- Chronic blood loss (bone marrow)
- Secondary polycythemia
- LN hyperplasia
Hyperplasia
persistent cell injury
callouses (increased epithelial cells)
Other term for Graves Disease
Hyperthyroidism
What can be observed in Graves Disease?
increased thyroid hormone (increased thyrocytes)
Hyperthyroidism
autoimmune disorder characterized by?
- diffuse goiter
- hyperthyroidism
- exophthalmos
Hyperthyroidism
immune mechanism
IgG antibodies vs. TSH receptor
Hyperthyroidism
Pathology
- dark red
- meaty
- tall columnar epithelium with intraluminal papillae
Hyperthyroidism
Term for negative feedback mechanism
Hypothalamic Pituitary Organ Axis
Normal thyroid gland tissue
monolayer of cuboidal epithelium
This is the raw ingredient to make thyroid hormone.
Thyroglobulin
Nodular Hyperplasia occurs in the?
prostate gland
Nodular Hyperplasia
proliferation of?
prostatic glands and stroma
Nodular Hyperplasia
results in?
enlargement of gland with obstruction of urine flow
