Q

WHAT WILL HAPPEN IF THE MEMBRANE DAMAGE?

A
  • IF THE MEMBRANE OF THE MITOCHONDRIA IS DAMAGED -> REDUCTION OF ATP -> LOSS OF ENERGY DEPENDENT CELLULAR FUNCTION -> CELL DEATH
  • LYSOSOME MEMBRANE DAMAGE -> ENZYMATIC DIGESTION OF CELLULAR COMPONENTS
  • PLASMA MEMBRANE DAMAGE -> LOSS OF CELLULAR CONTENTS

Q

WHAT IS THE CHARACTERISTIC OF COAGULATIVE NECROSIS?

A

GROSS
- PALE
- FIRM
- WEDGE SHAPED
HISTOLOGY
- TISSUE ARCHITECTURE AND CELL OUTLINE IS MAINTAINED
- AFFECTED CELLS HAVE FEW LYSOSOMES TO BRING ABOUT COMPLETE DESTRUCTION OF CELLS
- MOST COMMON CAUSE: ARTERIAL SUPPLY OCCLUSION

A

GROSS
- DISSOLUTION OF TISSUES BY HYDROLYTIC ENZYMES
- OCCUR IN THE BRAIN AND LUNGS
HISTOLOGY
- HUGE LYSOSOMAL CONTENT OF THE NEURONS AND LACK OF EXTRACELLULAR STRUCTURAL PROTEINS
