    Study Notes

    Cellular Processes

    • Exocytosis is tightly regulated and energy-dependent.
    • Endocytosis is characterized by the formation of membrane-bound vesicles.

    Genetic Analysis

    • DNA fragmentation shows a ladder pattern on agarose gel electrophoresis.

    Cellular Stress

    • Necrosis is characterized by the release of cell contents and an inflammatory response.
    • Facilitated diffusion occurs at 4°C and is a passive process.

    Cellular Response to Stress

    • Heat shock proteins (HSPs) protect cells against protein denaturation during cell stress.
    • Hypertrophy is NOT an example of a physiological adaptive response during cell stress.
    • Hyperplasia is an increase in cell number, while hypertrophy is an increase in cell size.

    Apoptosis

    • Apoptosis targets damaged or unwanted cells for destruction.

    Pathology

    • Necrosis is triggered by ischemia, which can cause cell death.
    • Pathology does NOT encompass the study of normal cellular function.
    • R.Virchow proposed that disease arises from cellular changes.
    • Cellular stresses can be caused by pathological stimuli, such as radiation or chemicals.
    • Genetic and immune factors play a role in cellular adaptation to environmental stresses.
    • Cancer is a pathological process that may result in abnormal cell growth.
    • Healing can be stimulated in response to pathological stress through various mechanisms, such as protein synthesis.
    • Cellular stresses can be caused by factors such as hypoxia, radiation, or chemicals.
