What does Hypoxia mean?
-How does it cause cell injury
O deprevation
-Reducing Aerobic Oxidative Respiration
What is Ischemia?
Hypoxia is O deprevation and Ischemia is O deprevation due to loss of blood supply from impeded blood flow or reduced venous drainage
-loss of O and substrates (glucose to tissues)
How do you get hypoxia?
-Blood isnt Oxgenated due to
-Cardiac Respirator Failure
RBC carry less O (CO Poising,Anemia)
What cells are O sensitive and which cells are not O sensitive?
Neuron (O sensitive)
Muscle (Can adjust>> Anerobic Respiration)
Name the 7 Causes of Injury
1-O Deprevation
2-Physical Agents
3-Chemical Agents and Drugs
4-Infectious Agents
5-Immunologic Reactions
6-Genetic Derangements
7-Nutrional Imbalances
Which category does Mechanical trauma, extreme temperatures, sudden changes in atmospheric pressure,radiation, and electrical shock
Physical Agents
Gives some examples of Chemical Agents and Drugs.
Chemical Agents
-Glucose and Salt in Hypertonic Concentrations
Drugs
-Arsenic, Cyanide, Mercuric Salts
Can Insecticides, Herbicides, Air pollutants, CO, Absestos, Alcohol and Narcotic Drugs result in cell injury
Only in large concentrations
-Known as Daily Companions
Name Infectious Agents that can cause cell injury
Bacteria
Viruses
Parasites
The anaphylactic reaction to a foreign protein or drug is a prime exampe of this category
Immunologic Reactions
The following phrases describe this category which causes cell injury:
-Inborn Errors of Metabolism from enzymatic Abnormalities
-Down's Syndrome
-Sickle Cell Anemia
Genetic Derangements
Describe how Nutritional Imbalance can injure cells
Protein Calorie Def
Vitamin Def
Nutrional Excess
Cells either have the nutrients necessary to function or don't// they can also have too much
Excess lipids can cause what diseases
Atherosclerosis
Programmed Cell Death
Apoptosis
Always Pathogenic, Cell Death
Necrosis
Cells have 5 Vital Systems. If these systems are disrupted cell injury will result. Name the 5 Vital Systems
1-Aerobic Respiration for ATP
2-Osmotic and Ionic Balance
3-Protein Synthesis
4-Structural Maintaince and Intracellular Transport (cytoskeleton)
5-Nucleus Function
How does the cell maintaing an osmotic and ionic balance
ion compartmentalization
-If disrupted cell injury results
T or F. The cellular response to injurious stimuli depends on the type of injury, its duration, and its severity.
True
Name the 3 Molecular Mechanisms of Injury
ATP Depletion
Increased Cytosolic Ca
Free Radical Generation
