Q

CELLULAR HOMEOSTASIS

A

The steady state in which cells normally exist

The equilibrium of the cells within their own environment (Adequate function preserved)

An increase, decrease, or change in stress on an organ can result in growth adaptations

When disturbed, there is a predisposal for the onset of pathology (Function may be lost)

MECHANISMS OF HYPERTROPHY

A

cause:

triggers:

  • induction emb/fetal genes: cardiac alpha-actin, ANF
    • more E saving contraction: α isoform of myosin heavy chain is replaced by β isoform

result:

26
MECHANISM OF HYPERPLASIA
- Only noted in cells which have the ability to divide - Increased local production of GF - Activation of particular intracellular signaling pathways - Leads to production of transcription factors - no stimulus = stops = Remains controlled = “Point of no return” - If continuous = risk of malignancy
27

31
MECHANISMS OF ATROPHY
- Combination of decreased protein synthesis (reduced gene expression and reduced metabolism) and increased protein degradation - Decreased metabolism of cell organelles - Degradation of cellular proteins (Stimulation of ‘ubiquitin-proteasome’ pathway) - Stem cells are intact **often accompanied with increased autophagy**

37
DYSPLASIA

Cytokines and chemokines
med/reg immune/inflam rxns chemokines: chemoattractant cytokines acting on leukocytes
143
cytokines of acute inflam
TNF: expr endothemlial adhesions mol, secr other cytokines, sys effects IL-1: sil to TNF - greater role in fever IL-6: acute sys effects chemokines: recruit leuko to inflam IL-17: recruit neutrophils, monocytes
144
cytokines of chronic inflam
IL-12: incr prod IFN-gamma IRN-gamma: activ macro: incr ab to kill microbes/tumor cells IL-17: recruit neutrophils monocytes
145
Complement System
plasma prot: circ as inactive --\> activ via amplying cascade (C1-C9) **crit step**: C3 activation via 3 pathways: classic, alt, lectin
146
Major biologic activities of complement
•Inflammation –C3a and C5a (anaphylatoxins) stimulate release of histamine from mast cells –C5a is chemoattractant •Opsonization –C3b fixed to microbial wall acts as opsonin promoting phagocytosis •Cell lysis –Deposition of the pore-forming membrane attack complex (MAC), resulting in cell lysis

Morphologic hallmarks of acute Inflammation
* Serous inflammation * Fibrinous inflammation * Purulent (suppurative) inflammation * Abcess * Ulcer

serous inflam: skin blister
152
Fibrinous inflammation: Fibrinous pericarditis
153
Purulent inflammation: Lung abscesses
154
Purulent inflammation: Pneumonia
155
Ulceration: Duodenal ulcer
