19 Cards in this Set

  • Front
  • Back
Solid joint: lack joint space: have CT that bridge the bones
Nonsynovial or synarthroses
In teeth and sutures of the skull
Fibrous synarthroses
Joint space: fibrous capsule: membrane that does not cover the articulating surfaces: no basement membrane
Synovial joints
Line synovial membranes: cuboidal CT, synthesize hyaluronuic acid (lubricant for hyaline cartilage)
Synoviocytes
No blood supply: CT: shock absorber: no innervation or lymphatics: Type II collagen (tensile stresses)
Hyaline cartilage
Cytokines (Il-1 and TNF) activate catabolic enzymes
Degradative process of cartilage matrix
Degenerative joint disease: erosion of articular cartilage: intrinsic disease of cartilage:: oligoarticular (affects few jts)
Osteoarthritis
OA can be caused by age called?
Or injury to jt, developmental deformity, or systemic disease (diabetes)
Primary OA
Secondary OA
Caused by a combination of genes (Wnt and prostaglandin metabolism) and environment (age and stress)
OA
1. chondrocyte injury 2. chondrocytes proliferate and secrete inflammatory mediators in synovium 3. chondrocyte drop out, loss of cartilage, subchondral bone changes
Phases of OA
Deep achy pain: limited ROM: a couple jts involved" Heberden nodes in women:slowly progresses
Primary OA clinical manifestations
Chronic systemic inflammatory disease that affects many tissues and organs but mainly attacks jts to produce inflammatory synovitis that destructs articular cartilage and ankylosis of jts
RA
Synovium becomes edemic and thickened: inflammatory infitrate with lymphocytes enter synovial stroma: vasodilaition: aggregation of fibrin: neuts: inc osteoclastic activity: pannus formation (causes articular cartilage erosion): fibrous ankylosis
Clinical manifestation of RA in jts
Rhematoid nodules (firm with central zone of fibrinoid necrosis with rim of histocyes)
RA in skin
Small arteries like vasa nervorum and digital arteries are obstructed by endarteritis (neuropathy, ulcers, and gangrene)
RA in bv
Genectically predisposed person is exposed to an arthritogenic antigen causing autoimmune rxn
Cause of RA
What alleles are associated with RA?
HLA-DRB1 and PTPN22
Arthritogen (citrullinated proteins)
Environmental factor in RA
CD4+ cells, ememory T cells, Th17 cells (rectruit neuts and monos), autoantibodies to IgG (marker of disease), and anti-CCP antibodies
Autoimmune response of RA
