Week 4: Tissue Repair Flashcards
two ways tissues can be repaired
regeneration, scar formation
repair in which tissue is returned to its normal state
regeneration
repair in which connective tissue fills in gaps and mends the tissue
scar formation (“fibrosis”)
tissues are divided into three groups
- continuously dividing (labile) tissue
- stable tissue
- permanent tissue
examples of continuously dividing tissues
bone marrow, skin, GI epithelium
continuously dividing tissue:
cells continuously ______
can easily _____ after ____
contain pool of _______
- proliferating
- regenerate, injury
- stem cells
stable tissues:
- cells have ____ to _____
- can _____, though, if injured
- limited ability, proliferate
- regenerate
examples of stable tissues
liver, kidney
permanent tissues:
- cells ____ ______
- can’t ______ (so injury always leads to ___)
- can’t proliferate
- can’t regenerate, scar
examples of permanent tissue
neurons, cardiac muscle
network that surrounds cells
extracellular matrix (ECM)
two forms of ECM
interstitial matrix, basement membrane
ECM functions
sequesters water/minerals, gives cells scaffold to adhere to, stores growth factor
what cells make collagen?
fibroblasts
____ regulates proliferation, movement, and differentiation of the cells living in it
ECM
if you screw up the ECM, you (can/can not) regenerate
can not
