4-Reversible and Irreversible cell injury
reversible
alteration of homeostasis, remove problem, cell returns to normal
irreversible
alteration of homeostasis to "point of no return" = cell death, necrosis, removal of stimuli: still no return to normal
2 main types of reversible
swelling/hydropic degeneration
fatty change
fatty change
fatty change - definition
early stage: sub-lethal damage, intracytoplasmic vaculoation bc of vacuoles of fat
fatty change pathogenesis
impaired metabolism of fatty acids thus build up of triglycerides, thus intracytoplasmic fat vacuoles
stages of fatty change
1. lipids into hepatocytes as FFA
2. FFA turned into: cholesterol, phopholipids, ketones, triglycerides
3. Triglycerides + apoproteins to make lipoproteins
4. Lipoproteins: only form triglycerides can leave hepatocytes
abnormalities in any of this causes fatty change
2. FFA turned into: cholesterol, phopholipids, ketones, triglycerides
3. Triglycerides + apoproteins to make lipoproteins
4. Lipoproteins: only form triglycerides can leave hepatocytes
abnormalities in any of this causes fatty change
decreased beta-oxidation of fatty acids to ketones because of _____ injury
mitochondrial
impaired synthesis of apoproteins
starvation, CCl4 toxicity, aflatoxicosis
impaired combination of triglycerides and proteins to form
lipoprotein
problem secreting lipoproteins from hepatocyte
build up of fat
3 main etiologies of fatty change
hypoxia
toxicity
metabolic disorders

which cells do you mainly find fatty change
cells dependant on fat metabolism (hepatocytes)
renal tubular epithelium
myocardium

gangrene
coagulation definition
death by preservation of tissue architecture and cellular outline
which is the most common necrosis
coagulation
hypoxic/ischemic death of all cells except brain is
coagulation
necrosis where outline of cell persists for a few days
coagulation
gross of coagulative
architecture of necrotic looks like normal, except for color and texture could be diff
ligher (pale)
swollen/shrunken
area could be surrounded by inflammation
