hexagonal
with the corners being portal triads and a central vein
Back
can a cell recover after being injury by free radicals?
Front
yes, as long as mitochondria and cell membrane are intact/functional
Back
apoptosis
Front
programmed, controlled by nucleus
cell shrinks
apoptotic bodies
phagocytes
NO INFLAMMATION
don't see gross changes
Back
What are the zones of the liver?
Front
1=periportal
2=mid-zonal
3=centrilobular
Back
metaplasia
Front
put a different kind of cell there, one that can withstand the injury
Back
what makes up the portal triad?
Front
bile duct
portal venule
hepatic artery
Back
thrombus
Front
stationary blood clot within a blood vessel
Back
dysplasia
Front
abnormal variation in cell morphology
Back
why would carbon monoxide cause hypoxia?
Front
it has a higher affinity to Hb than O2 does and displaces it
Back
what are the ways a cell can respond if injured?
Front
adapt
die
recover
Back
what is lipofuscin?
Front
wear and tear pigment, seen after a cell has recovered from injury
Back
disease
Front
impairment of optimal function/homeostasis due to structural or chemical changes
Back
Cytoplasmic viral inclusions
Front
how the virus takes over the cell machinery, little pink dot
Back
when is apoptosis used?
Front
embryological development
destroy infected cells
prevent neoplasms when there's DNA damage
destroy immune cells that recognize self
involution (thymus)
get rid of old cells
Back
what are the 3 forms of cell death?
Front
necrosis
apoptosis
autolysis
Back
How long does it take to see light microscopy cell changes histologically after cell death?
Front
4-12 hours
Back
which cell types are less susceptible to hypoxia?
Front
cartilage
bone
fat
skin
Back
what's unique about the liver?
Front
very homogeneous/the same throughout so a lesion presents the same throughout
Back
hypoxia
Front
sub-optimal/lack of oxygen
Back
which liver zone gets the best nutrients?
Front
periportal - blood coming in is fresh/full of O2 and nutrients
Back
ischemia
Front
lack of blood flow to an area
Back
what DON'T you normally see in the liver?
Front
bile canaliculi
lymphatics
Back
How long does it take to see gross lesions after cell death?
Front
1-2 days
Back
which direction does blood flow through the portal triad?
