Describe the restoration and structural arrangement that occurs with repair? How is this different from regeneration?
With repair, there is some restoration and some structural derangement but with restoration the cells proliferate to completely replace lost tissues.
__ tissues only regenerate when necessary. __ growth allows restitution of function.
Stable tissues regenerate only when necessary. Compensatory growth allows restoration of function.
Define differentiation.
Primitive cells that can become almost anything.
Which tissue type regenerates throughout life?
Labile tissues.
These tissue type replicates rapidly but only when triggered by certain stimuli.
Stabile.
Which tissues are no longer in the cell cycle?
Permanent.
Describe the two mechanisms for stem cell maintenance.
Obligatory asymmetric replication - one self replicates and the other differentiates. Stochastic differentiation - Two self renew and two differentiate.
What is the disadvantage of both types of cloning?
Both are inefficient and inaccurate. There is a deficiency is histone methylation that leads to incorrect gene expression.
What are the two checkpoints of the cell cycle?
One before synthesis and one before mitosis.
What are the three signaling mechanisms in cell growth?
Autocrine (self to self), paracrine (between adjacent cells), and endocrine (between distant cells).
Describe the structures made by the following types of collagen: I, II, IV, VII.
I - bone, tendons, most organs. II - cartilage, IVD, vitreous humor, IV - basement membranes. VII - anchors at dermal-epidermal junctions.
What causes Ehlers-Danlos syndrome?
Defect in collagen.
What causes Marfan’s syndrome?
Defect in fibrillin-1.
__ is the most important growth factor for stimulation of collagen syntehsis.
TGF-beta.
__ is the main factor for angiogenesis and __ is a secondary factor.
VEGF - main. Angiopoietin 1 and 2 - secondary.
