what are numerous specific metabolic defects known collectively as?
The glycogenoses
von gierkes is a deficiency in what?
hepatic glucose-6-Phosphatase
any metabolite behind the blockage will accumulate
Type V glycogenosis: mcardles
no glycogen phosphorylase, the first step in mobilization of glucose from glycogen.

The glycogenoses
What infectious organisms can cause accumulation intracellularly?
herpes simplex (nuclear inclusions without cell enlargement, CMV (large infected cells)
von gierkes is a deficiency in what?
hepatic glucose-6-Phosphatase
any metabolite behind the blockage will accumulate
What is amyloid?
proteinaceous EC accum. causing insolubility
Type V glycogenosis: mcardles
no glycogen phosphorylase, the first step in mobilization of glucose from glycogen.
How many different proteins in amyloid?
many, like 15
What infectious organisms can cause accumulation intracellularly?
herpes simplex (nuclear inclusions without cell enlargement, CMV (large infected cells)
What is calcification?
precipatation of insoluble salt of divalent cations in extraskeletal tissues
Can you see calc on xray?
yes, sometimes
What is amyloid?
proteinaceous EC accum. causing insolubility
How many different proteins in amyloid?
many, like 15
What does amyloid look like grossly?
enlargement of organ, due to pure mass effect
What is calcification?
precipatation of insoluble salt of divalent cations in extraskeletal tissues
At at cellular level, amyloid can be cytotoxic? What does it look like?
YES
eosinophilic, congo red is used to see it often (like in islets), shows its fibers if stained with CR
Can you see calc on xray?
yes, sometimes
amyloid is believe to be composed of what structure?
beta sheets. however, it can form other shapes too
What does amyloid look like grossly?
enlargement of organ, due to pure mass effect
formation of what is associated with prion disease?
amyloid
At at cellular level, amyloid can be cytotoxic? What does it look like?
YES
eosinophilic, congo red is used to see it often (like in islets), shows its fibers if stained with CR
prions are different than viruses because they do not contain:
nucleic acid
amyloid is believe to be composed of what structure?
beta sheets. however, it can form other shapes too
formation of what is associated with prion disease?
amyloid
What factor is found in amyloid? function?
amyloid P component.
function is to bind to nucleic acid to prevent immune response
prions are different than viruses because they do not contain:
nucleic acid
Apolipoprotein E is associated with what?
alzheimers
What factor is found in amyloid? function?
amyloid P component.
function is to bind to nucleic acid to prevent immune response
Apolipoprotein E is associated with what?
alzheimers
are different amyloids specific for different diseases?
yes
what contributes to amyloid deposition?
excessive protein, production, abnormal portein, extreme longevity, cooperative self assembly, abnormal protein processing
if an x ray is white, its called?
radio opaque
if xray is air like it it?
black, radiolucent
what affects calcium deposition?
concentration, counterion concentration, pH, nucleating factors, inhibiting factors,
what is metastatic calcification?
systemic associated with imbalance in plasma calcium concentration
examples of metastatic?
soft tissue in hypoparathyroidism, decrease Ca, increase Pos
hyperparathyroidism: increase serum Ca, lower PO4
Saponification
dystrophic calcification, cuased by in-situ triglyceride hydrolysis
ALWAYS SEEN AFTER NECROSIS
seen after release of lipase in pancreatitis
pathologic ossification
calcification in abnormal deposits of osteoid bone matrixbe be malignant and benign
Aging***********************
The gompertz curve:
N(t)-N0e^1/Rt
Age vs death
reaches a pretty normal slope at about age 10
what would be the life expectancy of immortal individuals?
1200 years
Examples of accelerated aging:
hutchinson gilford progreria
werner syndrome--premature graying, hypogonad, muscle atrophy, athersclerosis, sarcomas,
gene is associated with a helicase
down syndrome
diabetes
down syndrome causes what to increase aging?
beta-amyloid deposition, premature alzheimers
lifespan to 40 and beyond
calorie restriction is associated with?
increased lifespan due to delayed puberty, delayed immunological aging, delayed onset of cancer, etc.
