5 things that can initiate apoptosis |
Embryogenesis Lack of Growth Factos Certain receptor- ligand interactions Granzymes from Cytotoxic T cells Cell injury such as radiation |
|
Extrinsic Pathway for apoptosis begins when what happens |
"Death Ligand" binds to receptor (like type I TNF receptor) activating Initiator Caspases (Cas 8) which activates initiator caspases which activates execution caspases |
|
Intrinsic pathway for apoptosis begins with damage to what structure |
Mitochondria |
|
Intrinsic Pathway |
Cytochrome C activates Caspase 9 which activates effector Caspases (3,6,7,12) |
|
2 examples of Apoptotic Promoters |
BAX BAD |
|
2 examples of Apoptotic inhibitors |
BCL-2 BCL-XL |
|
Enzymes that breakdown DNA during apoptosis |
Endonucleases |
|
What is the surface marker on apoptotic bodies that macrophages recognize |
Phosphatidylserine |
|
What color is Necrotic tissue usually |
Pale |
|
3 reasons necrotic tissue turns pale |
increased water loss of cytochrome oxidase Loss of blood |
|
On a microscopic layer will necrotic tissue stain more basophilic or eosiniphilc |
Eosinophillia (no RNA, protein denaturation) |
|
What happens to the nucleus of a necrotic cell |
Pyknosis, Karyolysis, abscence |
|
3 general types of Necrosis |
Coagulative Necrosis Caseation Necrosis Liquefactive necrosis |
|
Coagulative Necrosis |
Gross and microscopic characteristics are still recognizable (Dead protein denatured delaying breakdown) |
|
A red line of demarcation in coagulative necrosis indicates what |
Hemorrhage |
|
A white line in coagulative necrosis indicates what |
Inflammation |
|
4 causes of Coagulative Necrosis |
Some bacterial Toxins Infarcts Mild burns Certain Chemicals |
