Q

Dysplasia

A

abnormal cells

can become cancerous

17
Q

Atrophy

A

cell shinkage

18
Q

Causes of Atrophy

A

lack of use
loss of inn or blood supply
lack of nutrition
aging

19
Q

Cause of Hypertrophy

A

increased use or hormonal stimulation

20
Q

Physiologic Hyperplasia

A

CT during wound healing

uterus and breast growth during pregnancy

21
Q

Pathologic Hyperplasia

A

benign prostatic hyperplasia

22
Q

HPV

A

can cause neoplasia

most clear themselves

23
Q

Endogenous Products

A

normal body substances in abnormally large amounts

24
Q

Exogenous Products

A

Environmental agents and pigments

25
Xanthoma
cholesterol buildup | yellow-white bumps on skin in corner of eyelids
26
Billirubin
endogenous causes yellow sclera cleared in a healthy liver
27
Hepatitis
liver inflammation increase of billirubin causes jaundice decrease in protein production
28
Can induce hepatitis
acetaminophen/ tylenol
29
Kayser- Fleischer Rings
sign of Wilson's Disease copper buildup coloration of Descemet's
30
Argyria
too much silver salts- exogenous | turns skin blue
31
Dystrophic Calcification
calcium deposits in dead or dying tissue | frequent cause of organ dysfunction
32
Necrosis
chaotic lysing of dead cells w/in living tissue swell and rupture huge inflammatory response
33
Apoptosis
programmed cell death no inflammatory response cell shrinks and blebs
34
Sequence of Necrosis
membrane damage cell and organelles swell inflammatory response
35
Exudates
``` inflamed vessels (from necrosis) leak fluid making pus very high levels of protein- Cloudy ```
36
Transudate
fluid is pushed through capillaries due to high pressures | very low protein levels- Clear
37
Granulomas
dead material and macrophages at center; surrounded by lymphocytes chronic inflammation
38
Immunological cells found in chronic inflammation
lymphocytes and macrophages
