Tissue Repair Flashcards
the two types of reactions in repair are
- regeneration
- scar formation
tissue replaces damaged components and returns to a normal state is called
regeneration
damaged tissues incapable of complete restitution and/or supporting structures of tissue are severely damaged is called
scar formation
what is fibrosis
the extensive deposition of collagen in lungs, liver, kidney, and other organs due to chronic inflammation
cell types that repair injured tissue
- remnants of injured tissue
- vascular endothelial cells
- fibroblasts
function of remnants of injured tissues
attempt to restore normal structure
function of vascular endothelial cells
create new vessels that provide nutrients for the repair process
function of fibroblasts
source of fibrous tissue forming the scar to fill in defects that cannot be corrected by regeneration
key processes of cell proliferation
DNA replication and mitosis
G1 phase=
pre synthetic growth phase
S phase=
DNA synthesis phase
G2 phase=
premitotic growth phase 2
M phase=
mitotic phase
non dividing cells are either in:
- cell cycle arrest (G1) or
- they exit the cycle to enter a phase (G0)
physiologic cell proliferation is caused by:
repair
pathologic proliferation is caused by:
cancer
ability of tissue to repair themselves is influenced by their:
intrinsic proliferative capacity
3 types of tissues involved in proliferation capacity
- labile (continuously dividing) tissues
- stable tissues
- permanent tissues
examples of labile (continuously diving) cells that have a short life span
-bone marrow, skin, oral mucosa, GI tract, ducts draining exocrine glands
stable tissue quiescent cells (in G0 stage) have what kind of proliferation capacity?
have minimal replicative activity (can proliferate in response to injury and loss of tissue mass)
stable cells constitute what aspect of most solid tissues?
the parenchyma of most solid tissues (kidney, liver, pancreas, endothelial cells, fibroblasts, smooth muscle cells)
what is unique about permanent tissues?
terminally differentiated and non proliferative in postnatal life
