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.
