Q

How apoptosis works

A

Mitochondria become leaky, cytochrome c come out into cutosol, activate caspases, protein cutting enzymes
Natural, prevent cancer or damages cells

Q

What is necrosis

A

Uncontrolled, accidental killing of healthy cells
Can’t move na out, H2O goes in, burst
Happens often after lack of o2, heart attack

Q

4 functions of plasma membrane

A

Mechanical barrier
Control in and out
Joining of cells
Communication

19
Q

Phospholipid bilayer membrane proteins (7)

A

Transmembrane channel protein
Active carrier protein
Docking marker acceptors for vesicle leaving
Enzymes
Chemical receptors
Cell adhesion molecules (hold cells together)
Glycoproteins for recognition

20
Q

Stays for Caucasian kids with CF

21
Q

What channels are defective in CF, what protein faulty

A

Chloride (CFTR protein)

22
Q

Explain cystic fibrosis

A

Defect in CFTR protein, chloride channels faulty, na cl not absorbed so accumulates in fluid lining airway.
Cilia can’t clear, common chest infection, defensin (natural antibiotic) can’t function in salt

23
Q

Where does CF affect

A

Respiratory
Pancreatic
Male reproductive system

24
Q

How is respiration affected by cf

A

Thick mucous
Chest infection
Lung tissue fibrotic (scarred) harder to inflate, increase in work for breathing

25
What part of digestive system affected by cf, how
Pancreatic duct blocked Enzymes for digestion not delivered Malnutrition Enzyme accumulate in pancreas, make cyst so become fibrotic
26
3 methods of cell adhesion
CAMs (cell adhesion molecules in membrane) EC matrix Specialised cells
27
..
..
28
What is extracellular matrix, what fibre proteins
Intricate mesh work of fibrous proteins Collagen, elastin and fibronectin
29
Examples of specialised cell adhesion molecules
desmosome, tight junction
30
What is a desmosome, what it composed of?
Specialised cell adhesion model Plaque, filament
31
Structure of desmosome
Plaque (cytosol thickened on inside wall of adjacent cells), filaments (cadherins) hold cells together. Keratin often involved, it’s a intracellular intermediate cytoskeleton filament
32
Membrane potential define
Separation of opposite charges across membrane, difference in electric potential
33
3 ions in/out for everyone 2 ions in/out?
Every 3 sodium out, 2 potassium out
34
When does dynamic equilibrium occur across membrane
When electrical gradient and concentration gradient balanced
35
Equilibrium potential for potassium, number? What does it mean
-90mv Point conc gradient matches movement of electrical gradient for potassium
36
Equilibrium potential for sodium
+60mv Point when conc gradient movement equals electrical gradient
37
Total equilibrium potential for na and k, also know as
-70mv Resting potential
38
What cells are excitable cells
Nerve Muscle
39
Factors affecting rate of net diffusion
Conc gradient of substance SA Molecular weight Distance
40
2 types of assisted membrane transport
Carrier mediated transport- small size water soluble substances across membrane, specific, slow (glucose) Vesicular transport- large water soluble molecules and multi molecular particles between ECF and ICF fast (ions)
41
Does facilitated diffusion need ATP
No
42
Primary active transport vs secondary
Primary ATP directly used to move molecules Secondary energy produced from moving molecules used to move others
43
2 mechanisms of secondary active transport
Symport (cotransport) solute moves in same direction as gradient of driving ion Antiport (counter transport) solute moves in opposite direction to gradient of driving ions
