Unit 2 Part 2 Flashcards
(104 cards)
Study of disease
Pathology
infection, genetic etc. and often mutifactoral
Etiology of cause
Progression of disease
Pathogenesis
Signs and symptoms
Clinical manifestations
Pathology 4 studies
Etiology
Pathogenesis
Molecular and morphologic changes
Clinical manifestations
Structural and functional units of tissues and organs
Cells
Capable of adjusting their structure and functions in response to physiological and pathological conditions
Cell adaptation
New steady state
Preserving viability
Adaptation
Cell poliferation (3 variables)
Labile
Stable
Permanent
Continously dividing
Labile cells
Labile cells example
Epithelium
Bone marrow
Hematopoietic cells
Quiescent
In g0 stage
Stable cells
Stable cells example
Hepatocytes
Smooth muscle
Lmphocytes
Nondividing
Permanent cells
Permanent cells example
Neurons
Skeletal and cardiac muscle
Types of adaptations are conrolled by
Complex molecular mechanisms
Types of cellular adaptation
Hypertrophy
Hyperplasia
Atrophy
Metaplasia
Dysplasia*
normal stressor/stimuli; results in enhanced function
Phsyiologic adaptation
abnormal stressor/stimuli; results in dysfunction and mortality
Pathologic
adaptation to positively counteract reduction in function
Compensatory adaptation
Increase in size; organ enlargement
No new cells
Increase in mrna and proteins
Hypertrophy
in response to increased demands
seen in cells that cannot divide
changes usually revert to normal if cause is removed
Hypertrophy
Gym body
Physiologic hypertrophy
Heart of patient with long standing hypertension
Pathologic hypertrophy
