Study Notes
Section 1: General Concepts
- Definition of repair: Replacement of damaged tissue, either by scar tissue (repair) or new healthy tissue (regeneration).
-
Repair types:
- Regeneration: Replacement with new healthy tissue.
- Fibrosis: Replacement with connective tissue.
- Permanent cell types: Surface epithelium, liver cells, and nerve cells
- Non-permanent cell types: Fibroblasts
Section 2: Stem Cells
-
Stem cell characteristics:
- Self-renewal: Ability to replicate itself
- Multilineage potential: Ability to differentiate into various cell types
- Short-term viability: (Not a characteristic)
- Asymmetric replication: Dividing into one stem cell and one differentiated cell.
-
Embryonic stem cell types:
- Totipotent: Capable of developing into any cell type, including extraembryonic tissues.
- Pluripotent: Capable of developing into any cell type within the embryo.
- Multipotent: Capable of developing into multiple cell types, but not all cell types.
- Unipotent: Capable of developing into only one cell type.
-
Adult stem cells: Hemocytoblasts, osteoblasts, and fibroblasts
Section 3: Mechanisms and Factors Affecting Repair
- Growth factors in repair: EGF, FGF, and TGF-β.
-
Factors inhibiting repair:
- Contact inhibition
- Chalones
- Inflammation
- Matrix interaction
Section 4: Wound Healing
- Primary intention healing: Healing in clean surgical wounds, where the edges are brought together.
- First step in bone fracture healing: Hematoma formation
- Granulation tissue components: Collagen, fibrocytes, capillaries, and fibroblasts
- Type of collagen in mature scar tissue: Type I
Section 5: Granulation Tissue
- Granulation tissue composition: Primarily collagen and fibroblasts, capillaries.
Section 6: Complications
- Excessive collagen formation leads to: Keloids, contractures (abnormal tightening of skin tissues).
- Blind-end tract opening: Fistula
- Epithelial surface defect:: Ulcer
- Types of healing: Primary and secondary intent. Secondary intention healing occurs in large wounds or infected wounds.
Section 7: Types of Healing
- Secondary intention healing: Healing in wounds with significant tissue loss or infection.
- Characteristics of granulation tissue: Moist, red, and granular.
Section 8: Bone Healing
-
Callus types:
- Soft callus: Forms first in healing.
- Hard callus: Develops after soft callus.
- Lamellar bone: Mature bone tissue.
- Bone remodeling agents: Osteoclasts and osteoblasts
- Factors hindering bone healing, including old age, ischemia (reduced blood flow), and nutritional deficiency.
Section 9: Complications of Wound Healing
- Excessive healing: Hypertrophic scars, sinuses, fistulas, and cyst formation
- Scar characteristics: Keloids have scar tissue that extends beyond the margins of the wound.
- Contractures: Occur with nervous system injuries or overgrowth of granulation tissue.
- Cysts: Filled with blood, pus, keratin, or collagen.
- Hypertrophic scar versus keloid: Hypertrophic scars are contained within wound boundaries and keloids extend beyond the wound.
