Hyperplasia definition

two types of physiologic hyperplasia with examples of each
increase in cell number
Hormonal- female breast tissue

Compensatory- post partial hepatectomy
Cellular response to physiologic hyperplasia
inc growth factos --> intracellular signaling ptw --> transcriptional regulators --> cell cycle regulation
Main cause of physiologic hyperplasia?
hormones:
estrogen (from fat/therapy) -->
androgens-->
chronic infections-->
- endometrial hyperplasia
- prostatic hyperplasia
- follicular lymphoid hyperplasia
(T/F) Pathogenic Hyperplasia of the endometrial tissue of the uterus is irreversible.
False- all physiologic hyperplasias are reversible as long as the stressor is removed
Name this tissue. Normal or abnormal? If abnormal, how so?
endometrial pathogenic hyperplasia
endometrial pathogenic hyperplasia
Name this tissue. Normal or abnormal? If abnormal, how so?
Normal early secretory phase endometrium
Name this tissue. Normal or abnormal? If abnormal, how so?
physiologic hyperplastic prostatic glandular epithelium
Name this tissue. Normal or abnormal? If abnormal, how so?
endometrial pathogenic hyperplasia
Define Hypertrophy

Cellular Mechanism?
increase in cell size
increased transcription of structural and functional protein genes
This image is an example of what?
What is the cause?
pathogenic myocardial hypertrophy
Mechanical
- stretch
Trophic
- growth factors (IGF1)
- vasoactive agents angiotensin II & α adrenergics
The image on the right is normal. What is represented by the image on the left?
Uterine physiologic hypertrophy
Which of the following are physiologic atrophy?

Denervation
thyroglossal duct
notochord
Decreased blood supply
Inadequate nutrition
ductus arteriosus
Loss of endocrine stimulation
thyroglossal duct
notochord
ductus arteriosus
How would you describe cerebral atrophy?
narrowed gyri, widened sulci
Chemical factors leading to atrophy? (in what type of state are you?)

What chemical opposes atrophy?
catabolic state such as cachexia:

glucocorticoids
thyroid hormone
cytokines (TNF)
insulin
(T/F) Metaplasia is an irreversible process
False
In what type of tissue can metaplasia occur?
connective tissue- epithelium or stromal
Vitamin A deficiency and epithelium
inability to maintain a highly specialized surface (leads to metaplasia)
-->keratomalacia (thickening of conjunctiva of eye)
-->glandular to squamous transition in Lung
consequence of a sialolith in the bile duct
Glandular to squamous metatplasia
classify this transition and tissue
Pseudostratified, ciliated bronchial mucosa becomes Stratified squamous metaplastic mucosa
Classify the tissue and the pathogenic process.

increases risk of?
Barrett’s esophagus (note globlet cells)

Metaplasia - Squamous to columnar Glandular
Risk of Adenocarcinoma
Two types of stromal metaplasia
condroid (cartilage)

osseous (bone)
(T/F) Metaplasia refers to a morphological change a cell to one more suited to the new microenvironment.
False. Metaplasia refers to a morphological change in a TISSUE brought about by changes in the tissue's stem cells
what are residual bodies?
Undigested remnants (lipid, often) of Phagolysosomes. also called lipofuscin
Heterophagy
ingested extracellular material
Autophagy
digestion of cell’s own constituents
immotile cilia syndrome may be due to?
mitochondrial functional abnormalities
What are Mallory Bodies?
increased intermediate filament generation in hepatocytes following alcohol injury
Name tissue and pathology.
Glycogen storage disease (heart)
Name tissue and pathology
Liver- Hepatitis B viral products fill golgi
Name tissue and pathology
Hepatocytes- Mallory Bodies
Name tissue and pathology.
neurons- Neurofibrillary Tangles
Name tissue and pathology
hepatocytes- Alpha-1 antitrypsin mutation leads to impaired secretion of a1antitrypsin
Name tissue and pathology
Brain- Plaques
Steatosis
= Fatty Change = Intracellular Lipid Accumulation
xanthomas
macroscopic masses of lipid (chl & esters) bloated cells
Name the tissue and pathogenesis.
Steatosis, liver
Name the tissue and pathogenesis.
Steatosis, liver
Name tissue and pathogenesis
Cholesterolosis, gallbladder
name tissue and pathogenesis
Cholesterolosis, gallbladder
Intensely red material represents what?
intracellular accumulation of protein in proximal renal tubule.
pick,blue, and fluorescent represents what? What type of tissue?
Cardiac Amyloidosis- abnormal protein folding
What is represented by the light blue circles? In what type of cells are they located?
Russell Bodies (normal Ig's in massive #'s) in Plasma Cells
dark pink dots represent? which tissue?
Abnormal alpha-1 antitrypsin inclusions (abnormally synthesized protein) in hepatocytes
Which of the following describes the calcification of cells/tissues following necrosis?

Metastatic
Neoplastic
Dystrophic
Hypercalcemic
Dystrophic
Causes of Metastatic Calcification?
Hypercalcemia due to:

-elevated PTH
-caner (inc bone metabolism)
-renal failure
-vit D disorders
