Pathophysiology

Pathophysiology Winter 2008

QuestionAnswer
Pathophysiology An external loss of homeostasis (normal balance)
Mitochondria cellular energy metabolsim
Nucleus surrounded by the cytoplasm, contains genetic material, primary function is cell division and genetic information control
Cell Membrane phospolipid membrane which is intact and semipermable
Vesicles small intracellular, membrane-enclosed sac that stores or transports substances
RER RNA complexes that are in the cytoplasm, primary function is site of protein synthesis
Lysosomes contain digestive enzymes (hydrolasas)
Waste product of CAC CO2
ATP Produced by Glucose 4 (2 used)
CAC location Mitochondria
Passive Transport Diffusion- no energy needed
Mediated Transport involves transmembrane proteins
Active Transport the protein membrane transports molecules in and out of the cell
Example of Active Transport Na/ K Pump (Master Pump)
Endocytosis enfolds substances from outside the cell and separates the plasma membrane moving the item into the cell
Exocytosis the vacuole is release out of the cell into the extracellular matrix
Osmosis Diffusion of water from LESS concentration to HIGH concentration
Epithelial Tissue internal and external cels
Connective Tissue france work on which epithelical cells cluster
Muscle Tissue long, thin, highly contractile
Neural Tissue highly specialized, recieves and transports electrical impulses
Atrophy DECREASE in size of cells not in number of cells/ cell damage
Example of Atrophy Ulcer nerve syndrome
Hypertrophy INCREASE in cell size not in number of cells
Example of Hypertrophy Heart Hypertrophy
Hyperplasia INCREASE in number of cells
Example of Hyperplasia keloids, precaneous lesion
Metaplasia Change in cell type AND number (Pathological only)
Example of Metaplasia Smokers Lunger (puesdo stratifed cells)
Dysplasia Change in cell type AND number/ loss of specifity
Example of Dysplasia Prelimarly tumor
Hypoxia Decreases oxygen (cell makes less ATP/ less functioning)
Anemia Full oxygen/ DECREASED blood flow
Obstruction/ Cessatino of blood flow lead to.... Ischemia
Ischemia leads to... DECREASED Mitochondiral Oxygenation
Decreased Mitochondrial Oxygenationation leads to.... DECREASED ATP and Severe degeneration of Mitochondria
Decreast of ATP in the cell leads to... DECREASE of the Master Pump (K/Na) and INCREASED Glycolysis
DECREASED in the master pump leads to.... Intracellular water, Na and Ca AND Extracellular K
Intracellular water, Na and Ca AND Extracellular K leads to... Cellular swelling AND Organelle damage
NCREASED Glycolysis leads to.. DECREASED Glyosis
Decreased Glyosis leads to.. INCREASED Latate and DECREASED pH
INCREASED Latate and DECREASED pH leads to... Nuclear chromatin (nonfunctioning) AND swelling of lysosomes
Swelling of lysosomes leads to... INCreased relates of lysosomal enzymes = cell autodigestion
Excessive vacuolation of cytoplasm leads to... membrane breakdown/phosopholids break down and make vacules (stops cell communication)
Oxygen does this to phospholipids? changes the structure by removing the double bond so that all phospholipds stick together
Membrane damage leads to... loss of phosopholids, activation of inflamation,increase of FR, loss of function
loss of phosopholids, activation of inflamation,increase of FR, loss of membrane function leads to... release of enxymes (CPK and LPH) AND increase of Ca intracellular (enzyme stimulates to death)
T/F Excess is bad for function. True, excess gets in the way of function.
Free Radical an unbalanced molecule that has too many or to few elections that will steal elections from any other molecule and trigger negative events
Paulk and FR thought if you took in mass doses of vitamin C you could rid your body of FR
Super Oxide A oxygen with only 7 elections. (very dangerous FR)
Causes of DNA Damage UV, Ionizing radition, nuclear fallout, smoking, hydroxyl radicals/ air pollution, Extra produced from the ETC, and Inflammation (wbc)
SOD Super Ocide Disupase (VERY Bad)
Catalase makes H202 (bad) into 2 molecules of water (good)
FR and DNA conjugate AT/ CG's so they can't replicate (naturally the body can repair
FR and Vitamin C and E FR will attach to Vit-C and carry it out of the body/ Vit-E will attach also but then give to vit-c to carry out of the body
Direct toxcity by combining with a molecular component of the cell leads to... cell leaks
Indirect toxic through the production of reactive FR leads to... change in cell structure
CCl4 Carbon Tetrachloride and the Liver the liver attemtps to metabolize this non toxic structure made makes it toxic
Lead poisioning leads to... inhibition of the calcim channel at the neural juction
S/S Lead posioning convulsions, delirium, paralysis
Carbon Monoxide Posioning Leads to... hypoxic injury (binds 300X tighter to Hmgb)
Ethanol Toxicity leads to ... CNS depression
Hallmark of Ethanol Toxicity is.. forgetting
S/S of Ethanol Toxicity Not restful sleep, forgetting, slow response
S/S of Carbon Monoxide Headache, Giddiness, Tinnitus (ringing in ears), Nausea, Weak, Vomiting
Ethanol becomes ADH which becomes.... Acetaldeyde (which is used for preserving cadavers)
Acetaldehyde goes to ACDH which leads to.... Acatate (aCO and CO2) and FR
Necrosis Cell murder
Apoptosis Cell suicide

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
