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
|
