Preview 4 out of 34 pages

This document contains a comprehensive collection of practice questions and answers for BLD 204 Exam 1. It covers cell injury, cellular adaptations, apoptosis, necrosis, acute and chronic inflammation, wound healing, tissue repair, extracellular matrix, chemical mediators of inflammation, leukocyte recruitment, cytokines, growth factors, and cellular organelles.

Apoptosis


Give this one a try later!


- Programmed cell death
- blebbing of cells
- condensation of chromatin
- no inflammatory response
- caspases begin apoptosis, packaged particles are consumed by
phagocytes that send out "eat me" signals to be degraded.


- Happens normally: embryogenesis, cells that have served their purpose,
self-reactive lymphocytes, breakdown of hormone dependent tissues.
Basically, when a cell has done its job and isn't needed anymore, apoptosis
happens.
- Pathologic situations: DNA damage, misfolded proteins, viral infections.
Apoptosis helps keep tissue damage to a minimum.
- NO INFLAMMATORY RESPONSE

,What are the steps of leukocyte recruitment to inflamed tissue?


Give this one a try later!


- margination and rolling
- adhesion to endothelium
- transmigration through the endothelium (extravasation: get outside the
vein)
- migration into interstitial tissues via chemical gradient




PMNs


Give this one a try later!


- Elimination of microbes, dead tissue




Describe the ways a normal cell or tissue can adapt to stress and the signals that
induce them


Give this one a try later!


- Hypertrophy: increased cell size in response to stress
- Hyperplasia: cells multiply/increase in number of cells
- Atrophy: cells shrink by loss of substance
- Metaplasia: reversible change from one adult cell type to another




Nucleus

,Give this one a try later!


- site of DNA replication
- home of DNA




Fat Necrosis


Give this one a try later!


- traumatic injury in fat areas (ex. breast) or by saponification; lipolysis;
phagocytes containing lipids; pancreatic type results in soap formation;
cells look like shadows with basophilic calcium deposits




Describe the acute phase response to acute phase proteins


Give this one a try later!


- Proteins are released during acute phase, including SAA, CRP and
fibrinogen.
- CRP is the test to detect protein levels in blood.




Describe mechanisms the phagocytic cell has for dealing with ingested material.


Give this one a try later!


???????



- Elastase and AMPs (antimicrobial peptides)
- NET

, - ROS
- Lysosomal enzymes
- low pH




What is needed for homeostasis?


Give this one a try later!


- good DNA
- functioning proteins
- sound membrane
- enough nutrients and oxygen




Role of the extracellular matrix in repair and healing


Give this one a try later!


- support
- place for adhesion and migration
- control of proliferation
- microenvironment




Hypoxia (cell injury)


Give this one a try later!
