EXAM 1

Intro to Human Disease

QuestionAnswer
acute inflammation sudden, short term
vascular response Change in blood vessels, right after injury.
cellular response Movement of white blood cells to injury site
granular white blood cells
nongranular present in chronic inflammation, development of scar tissue
stages of inflammation Margination, Emigration, Chemotaxis, Phagocytosis
margination fluid leaves cells, cells go to the MARGINS (edges) of blood vessels
emigration go through vessel into tissue
chemotaxis chemicals that transport blood cells into tissues
phagocytosis engulfing and destroying bacteria
opsonization prepares debris to be engulfed
engulfment surrounds debris
intracellular killing (destruction) debris goes into white blood cell, where it destroys bacteria
cytokines mediators of inflammation
nonspecific you will have an accumulation of monocytes and lymphocytes and will have formation of scar tissue.
Granulomatous formations of leisons, splinters
tissue repair inflammatory phase, proliferation phase, maturational phase
inflammatory phase starts at time of injury, promotes inflammation
proliferation phase 2-3 days after injury, start producing new cells to repair the tissue
maturational phase 3 weeks after injury, see remodeling of tissue
cells labile, stabile, permanent
labile continue to divide (mitosis)
stabile only do cell division when stimulated (when there's an injury)
permanent lost ability to undergo cell division (muscle cells)
necrosis tissue death that is still on the body
Coagulation grayish color firm mass, discoloration
caseous milk, you have an abscess with a cheesy like scent. Kind of looks like cottage cheese
exodites fluids that go to injury site to help heal.
exogenous outside of body, cell injury
endogenous inside of body, cell injury
gangrene types dry, moist, gas
dry gangrene the skin looks dry and is dry to the touch, gets wrinkly and shrunken. Color changes, it is dark brown/black. Progresses very slowly. Interruption of artery blood flow.
moist gangrene skin feels moist to the touch, cold, looks swollen, skin looks stretched from the swelling, discoloration of tissue, due to bacterial infection
gas gangrene clostridium (bacteria, doesn’t need oxygen to survive), deep puncture wombs, since no oxygen clostridium will survive when it is a deep puncture womb. Can produce gas bubbles (H₂S). Could go away if treated right away.
