Q

Types of Collagen

A

1: Fibril forming

4: Collagen VI- Beaded filaments
5: Hexagonal network (cartilage)
6: Anchoring fibril
7: Transmembrane domain
8: Multiplexin- spacing between fibrils

22
Q

Collagen Synthesis

A

3 procollagen chains-> hydroxylation and glycosylation-> disulfide bonds-> triple helix->secretion to extracellular-> N and C proteases cleave ends-> Tropocollagen-> assemble into collagen fibrils-> lysyl oxidase forms covalent crosslinks-> FACIT collagens and proteoglycans added

23
Q

Collagen interactions

A

Laminins: binds anchoring fibril, basement membrane, integrins
Proteoglycans/Aggrecan
Fibronectin

24
Q

Ehlers-Danlos

A

Mutations in some part of collagen synthesis

hyperextensible skin, mobile joints, fragile tissue, bruise easily

25
Osteogenesis Imperfecta
Mutations in Tyle I collagens thin, bowed bones, fragile abnormal bleeding, blue sclera
26
Alport Disease
Collagen IV mutation (basement membrane) | Renal damage, hematuria, hearing/ocular deficits
27
Scurvy
Deficiency of Vit C easy bruising and bleeding, corkscrew hair Decreased hydroxylation of collagen by lysyl and prolyl hydroxylases
28
Gout
Uric acid crystal buildup in joints->inflammation (IL1-B pathway/inflammasome Hyperuricemia, usually via underexcretion (kidneys) linked somewhat to BMI too increased risk post-menopause can be caused/worsened by metabolic syndrome, renal disease, drugs, EtOH, diet, etc MCU crystal birefringence
29
CPPD Deposition Disease
Calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate crystal deposition similar to gout, related to overproduction of PPi may be found with CPPD and urate crystals mixed
30
Pseudogout
Attacks of acute arthritis, usually in larger joints Dx: rhomboidal shaped, birefringent crystals May see chondrocalcinosis on XRay
31
Rheumatoid Arthritis
``` T-cell autoimmune, with B-cell contribution genetic predisposition (HLA-DR) Hormonal contribution (F>M) Proliferation of synovium (synovitis), with characteristics of benign tumor Invasion of joint with neutrophils, other immune cells Rheumatoid factor= IgM anti-Fc of IgG antibody CCP= anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide= correlates with disease activity AM stiffness, swollen joints (usually small), rheumatoid nodules Associated with periodontitis (PAD) Also have Sjogren's (dry eyes/mouth), higher CV risk (vasculitis, atherosclerosis), pulm and GI (nodules) and neuro effects ```
32
Osteoarthritis
``` Degenerative joint disease Chrondrocytes in articular cartilage respond to biologic stresses in a way that breaks down matrix (imbalance) hands, hips (men), knees, spine usually Heberden nodes= DIP,, Bouchard's= PIP Small fractures-> joint mice, rice bodies fracture gaps fill w synovial fluid-> subchondral cysts Mushroom shaped bony outgrowths= osteophytes at margin of articular surface Inflammation of synovium membrane,, thickened joint capsule Joint deformity (NOT fusion like RA) can occur ```
