35 Cards in this Set

  • Front
  • Back
cell function
independent synthetic activity as a unit; typical organization; shape varies with function
stains
H&E, Silver, PAS, Feulgen, Congo red (amyloid), prussian blue (iron)
microscopy
light (resolution of 0.2 um); phase contrast (living cells, different refractive index); immunofluorescence (Ag+Ab rxn with a probe), SEM, TEM; cell fractionation (centrifuge to separate)
plasma mem function
selective barrier, dielectric properties, mediating ion concentration, enzyme-substrate separation, regulate cell signals
cell mem proteins
integral- directly embeddied into lipid bilayer (extend through-transmembrane); peripheral- loosely bound to side
cholesterol
thoughout mem, stabilizes by limiting mvmt of phospholipids
carbohydrates
to protein as glycoprotein or glycolipid; components of receptors to regonize phagocytosis, Ab response, hormone activity, cell adhesion
categories of integral proteins
pump (H+, Na/K), channel, receptor, linker, emzyme, structural (ex: Integrin, Cadherin, Selectin); spectrin and Mfs-RBC mem
vesicular transport
endocytosis (large particles, phagocytosis, ligands, actin into MFs for psuedopod) and exocytosis (in secretory cells)
receptor-mediated endocytosis
vesicles lined by carb cell coat and surface enclosed in clathrin; macromlcs (LDL, HDL) cluster receptors by adaptin forming coated pit; dynamin pinches off coated vesicle
mitochondria
chemical ENG into APT; concentrated Ca and Mg into granules; enzymes for Krebs and fatty acid oxi; urea cycle, heme syn, hormone syn, high metabolic activity (cardiac,osteoclast) or active transport mech (pareital cell); heme for hemoglobin syn
ribosomes
rRNA and protein; basophilia to cell; produce protein to use in the cell (hemoglobin); in cancer cells, immature RBC, developing muscle cells, keratinocytes
rER
segregate protein for export or intracellular (lyso) utilization, glycosylation, phospholipid syn, posttranslational mod (hydrox, glyco, sulfation, phospho); in fibroblasts, plasma, osteoblast, lyso
sER
steroid syn (sex); dexot; break down glycogen, release/store Ca in muscle, lipid metabolism; cytochrome P-450 proteins; glucose-6-phosphatase in inner membrane (glycogen storage)
Golgi vesicles
small vesicles on cis from rER; larger vescles on trans(secretory granules, membrane protein-trans granules, prim lysosomes/endosomes)
golgi functions
glycosylates, sulfates, phosphorylates, cleaves proteins, packages, sorts lipids; Mannose6Phospate allows hydrolases to be directed into lysosomes
lysosomes structure
40+ hydrolytic enzymes (most glycoproteins); in macrophages, osteoclasts, WBC; primary haven't digested; primary fuses with phagosome and digestion follows; undigested-residual body/lipofuscin pigment
lysosome function
cellular defense, organelle turnover, degrade glycogen, cleave hormone in thyroid, release products externally, 49 LSDs; cathespin D enzyme used for breast cancer analysis
peroxisomes
oxidative enzymes (catalase, peroxidase); protect cell from H2O2; enzyme for fatty acid meta; in hepatocytes, macrophages; increased with drug clofibrate
microfilaments
protein actin (assoc myosin, troponin, tropomyosin); dynamic in nonmuscle (globular to filamentous); ftn in motility, shape, cytokinesis, receptor/organelle mvmt, phago/pinocytosis
intermediate filaments
not as dynamic; cell structure, junction stability, nuclear position; keratin-epithelial, vimentin-mesenchymal, glial-astrocytes, NFs-neurons, desmin-muscle, lamin-nuclei (plectin for binding to Mf, If, Mt)
microtubules
dimer tubulin; MAPS-motility, shape, organelle mvmt, chrom mvmt, cilia/flag/receptor mvmt; kinesin (center to periph.) and dynein (periph to MTOC)
Alkaloids
drugs colchicine, colcemid, vinblastine, vincristine bind to tubulin to prevent polymerization and inhibit mitosis; in cancer treatment
Taxol
stabilizes Mt, prevents depolymerizing, arrests cancer in cell division stages; acts on kinetochore to prevent chrom mvmt
centrioles, BB, cilia, flagella
composed of MTs; centrioles in pairs-MTOCs; BB from centrioles (9 triplets); BB form cilia and flagella; cilia are 9+2
Inclusions
secretory granules: release by meta, hormon, neural signals; others=stored food, pigment, crystalline
nucleus
genetic material, manufactures 3 RNAs; nuclear pores for mRNA and proteins; sex chromatin (barr body) is visible in interphase cell
nucleolus
rRNA, protein, in neurons, rRNA syn, initial ribo syn; cancer cells have multiple
chromosome
replicated has a centromere region where there is a kinetochore for MTs to attach
interphase
G1-RNA and protein syn; S-syn and replication of DNA and centrioles; G2-syn tubulin and accumulation of ERG; Gtd- leave cell cycle (muscle, nerve, adipose) to become specialized/terminal differentiated; G0-cell stopped dividing, reserve stem cells, basal cell of resp epi
apoptosis
individual cells; turn on genes to bring death; 18 genes; apoptotic bodies, no inflammatory response; DNA frag, decrease cell volume, mem blebbing (phosphatidyl serine flips), apoptotic bodies, loss of mito ftn
necrosis
pathologic, swelling, lysis, groups of cells; influx of water and ions, inflammatory response (neutrophils)
cadherin A
structural protein; binds epi cells, transmembrane, depends on Ca
selectin
important in blood cells sticking to endothelium and moving out of blood; integrin does this also
