Q

Progression through the cell cycle from G1 is regulated by proteins called ________, which form complexes with enzymes
called _________________

A

Cyclins , cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs).

17
Q

The ability of tissues to repair themselves is critically influenced by their ______________.

A

intrinsic proliferative capacity

18
Q

the tissues of the body are divided into three groups:

A
  1. Continuously dividing tissues.
  2. Stable tissues.
  3. Permanent tissues.
19
Q
  1. Continuously Dividing Tissues:
A

Cells of these tissues (also known as labile tissues) are continuously being lost and replaced by maturation from stem
cells and by proliferation of mature cells.

20
Q

Labile cells include:

A
  1. Hematopoietic cell ( bone marrow)
  2. Surface epithelial ( stratified squamous surfaces of the skin, oral cavity, vagina, and cervix)
  3. Cuboidal epithelial ( salivary glands, pancreas, biliary tract )
  4. Columnar epithelial ( gastrointestinal tract, uterus, and fallopian tubes )
  5. Transitional epithelial ( urinary tract )
21
Q
  1. Stable tissue
A

Cells of these tissues are quiescent (in the G0 stage of the cell cycle) and have only minimal replicative activity in their normal state.

22
Q

Stable cells constitute the parenchyma of most solid tissues, such as ________, _______, and ________.

A

liver, kidney, and pancreas, endothelial cells, fibroblasts, and smooth muscle cells.
- these cells are capable of proliferating in response to injury or loss of tissue mass

23
Q

With the exception of _______, stable tissues have a limited capacity to regenerate after injury.

24
Permanent Tissues:
The cells of these tissues are considered to be terminally differentiated and nonproliferative in postnatal life. - The majority of neurons and cardiac muscle cells belong to this category.
25
_________ is usually classified as a permanent tissue, but ________ attached to the endomysial sheath provide some regenerative capacity for this tissue
Skeletal muscle, satellite cells
26
In permanent tissues, repair is typically dominated by _______.
scar formation
27
Stem cell differentiation
1. Epidermal stem cells located in the bulge area of the hair follicle = hair follicle and the epidermis. 2. Intestinal stem cells are located at the base of a colon crypt, above Paneth cells = enterocyte. 3. Liver stem cells (commonly known as oval cells) are located in the canals of Hering = hepatocyte. 4. Corneal stem cells are located in the limbus region, between the conjunctiva and the cornea.
28
Stem cells are characterized by two important properties:
1. Self-renewal capacity. 2. Asymmetric replication.
29
Stem cells with the capacity to generate multiple cell lineages (___________) can be isolated from embryos and are called _________(ES) cells.
pluripotent stem cells , embryonic stem
30
The Nature And Mechanisms Of Action Of Growth Factors: Cell proliferation can be triggered by many chemical mediators, such as ________, _______, and _______.
growth factors, hormones, cytokines
31
Expansion of cell populations usually involves:
1. Increase in cell size (growth). 2. Cell division (mitosis). 3. Protection from apoptotic death (survival).
32
Function of growth factor , pleiotropic effects
Simulating cellular proliferation. stimulate migration. differentiation and contractility. enhance the synthesis of specialized proteins (such as collagen in fibroblasts).
33
A growth factor may act on a specific cell type or on multiple cell types:
1. induce cell proliferation by binding to specific receptors. 2. Affecting the expression of genes whose products typically have several functions. 3. Relieve blocks on cell cycle progression (thus promoting replication). 4. Prevent apoptosis, and they enhance the synthesis of cellular proteins in preparation for mitosis.
34
A major activity of growth factors is to stimulate the function of
growth control genes, many of which are called protooncogenes because mutations in them lead to unrestrained cell proliferation characteristic of cancer (oncogenesis).
35
- Many of the growth factors that are involved in repair are produced by _______ that are recruited to the site of injury or are activated at this site, as part of the inflammatory process.
leukocytes
36
growth factor can have _________ on the same cell depending on its concentration
opposite effects - An example of such a growth factor is transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β).
37
Other growth factors are produced by the _________ or the __________cells in response to cell injury or loss.
parenchymal cells , stromal (connective tissue)
38
Signaling Mechanisms of Growth Factor Receptors:
1. Autocrine signaling: in which a substance acts predominantly (or even exclusively) on the cell that secretes it. 2. Paracrine signaling: in which a substance affects cells in the immediate vicinity of the cell that released the agent. 3. Endocrine signaling: in which a regulatory substance, such as a hormone, is released into the bloodstream and acts on target cells at a distance.
39
——-
Receptor proteins are generally located on the cell surface, but they may be intracellular; in the latter case, the ligands must be sufficiently hydrophobic to enter the cell
