another name for cell death?
|
Atuolysis
|
|
What is necrosis?
|
activating a pathway that is not pre-programmed but kills cell anyway
|
|
List the things that cause cell death
|
Coagulative necrosis, Liquefactive necrosis, caseous necrosis, fat necrosis gangrenous necrosis and gas
|
|
What is apatosis?
|
thought to be a pre-preprogrammed pathway to kill cells. Once activated, cannot be stopped.
|
|
Explain Coagulative necrosis
|
coagulation- denatures proteins, hypoxia is cause- happens on most cells of the body
|
|
explain liquefactive necrosis
|
caused by hypoxia in the central nervous system, bacterial or fungus infections. cause healthy cells to be ingested and what is left is like liquid
|
|
what is caseous necrosis
|
combined coagulative and liquefactive necrosis affecting mostly brain and heart
|
|
explain gangrenous necrosis
|
caused by hypoxia, dry gangrene-coagulative necrosis, wet gangren-liquifactive necrosis. can happen internally and externally
|
|
Explain fat necrosis
|
breaking down of fat or fatty acids (crucial part of cell membrane) mostly affects breast and pancreas
|
|
explain gas necrosis
|
affects muscle tissue caused by gas elements being released by a bacteria- causes cell death
|
|
What does the inflammatory response NOT have to include?
|
Immune system, inflammatory response can occur without stimulating the immune system
|
|
what are the steps of acute inflammation?
|
immediate response, arterioloes dialate,
edema and swelling, blood becomes thicker leukocytes migrate to area accumulate cells and protein macrophages clean site |
|
What are the main systems of the inflammatory response?
|
Complement system
Clotting system Kinin-bradykinin system |
|
What does the complement system do?
|
it is the mediator made up of 10 proteins, activated by antigen/antibody complex or activated by endotoxins
|
|
What does the clotting system do?
|
prevents spread
keeps bad guys localized forms clot-activated by intrinsic or extrinsic pathway |
|
What does the Kinin-bradykinin system do?
|
dialates blood vessels
induces pain contracts smooth muscle increases permeability |
|
What is the one enzyme that controls or activates the entire inflammatory system?
|
C1 esterase inhibitor, except for hereditary angioneurotic edema-very bad due to continued inflammatory response
|
|
Explain alcohol metabolism and alcoholics can have trouble
|
see drawing
|
|
What does degranulation mean?
|
releasing some chemicl mediator causing pain, drawing cells to site, dialatin blood vessels, etc.
|
|
Name the granulocytes and how prevelant they are as luekocytes
|
neutrophils- 55-70%
eosinophils 2-5% parasite defense basophils <1% release histamine |
|
Name the agranulocytes and what % they are of leukocytes
|
monocytes 5-8% )macrophage and monocyte- leave blood, invade tissue
Lymphocytes- B-cells and T-cells usually not active unless chronic inflammation |
|
What are mast cells
|
Leukocytes that release mediators
|
|
What do the T and B cells do?
|
Cause Pus formation
Tissue scarring cell infiltration |
|
What happens in chronic inflammation?
|
Neutrophil degranulation
activation of T and B cells (lymphocytes) Fibroblast activation |
