    Study Notes

    Cell Injury and Death

    • Cell injury can occur due to various causes, including increased load, infections, immunologic reactions, tissue necrosis, and environmental substances.
    • Physiologic hypertrophy is a normal response to increased load, whereas pathologic hypertrophy is a diseased state.

    Physiologic and Pathologic Hypertrophy

    • Physiologic hypertrophy occurs in response to increased load, such as in the uterus during pregnancy, and promotes normal function.
    • Pathologic hypertrophy, on the other hand, is a diseased state, characterized by abnormal accumulation of cells or substances, leading to impaired function. Examples include bronchial mucus production, squamous epithelial carcinoma, and fatty liver disease.

    Inflammation

    • Inflammation is a major cause of tissue injury, resulting from immune processes, and is discussed in Chapter 4.
    • Inflammation can lead to tissue damage, pain, fever, and dysfunctional responses, which cannot be eliminated but can be managed with an appropriate response.
    • Chronic inflammation is a critical component of normal tissue maintenance, and its absence can lead to disease.

    Causes of Inflammation

    • The major causes of inflammation are infections, immunologic reactions, tissue necrosis, and environmental substances.
    • Inflammation can also occur due to loss of blood supply, release of molecules from damaged cells, and recognition of microbial products by immune cells.

    Consequences of Inflammation

    • Inflammation can lead to tissue damage, organ dysfunction, and disease.
    • Chronic inflammation can result in chronic diseases, such as autoimmune and allergic diseases, and cannot be cured but can be managed with an appropriate response.

    Overview of Inflammation

    • Inflammation is a host response to infections and tissue damage

    • Immunologic reactions (autoimmune diseases)
    • Tissue necrosis
    • Environmental substances (e.g., toxins, allergens)

    Sequence of Events in Inflammation

    Promises of Insurance Function

    • Squamous epithelium in the main pathways of abnormal intra-epithelial accumulations are unable to produce mucus and provide clear action, leading to inadequate removal and degradation or excessive production of an endogenous substance.

    Importance of Normal Bronchial Epithelium

    • Normal bronchial epithelium protects against endogenous substances, or deposits of abnormal exogenous materials.
    • It is essential for maintaining normal bronchial epithelial functions, which are often disrupted in airway diseases.

    Examples of Abnormal Epithelial Accumulations

    • Metaplastic epithelium can be seen as a sign of neoplastic transformation (e.g., squamous cell carcinoma of the lung).
    • Fatty change (steatosis) is the accumulation of lipids in cells (e.g., in the liver).
    • Basal cell hyperplasia is a sign of increased red cell breakdown or iron overload.

    Consequences of Abnormal Epithelial Accumulations

    • Abnormal epithelial accumulations can lead to impaired tissue function, increased cell turnover, and increased risk of neoplastic transformation.
    • Examples include:
      • Squamous cell carcinoma of the lung
      • Fatty liver disease
      • Hemosiderin accumulation in tissues (e.g., in hemochromatosis)

    Inflammation Response

    • The major steps in the response to inflammation are:
      1. Recognition of the noxious stimulus
      2. Recruitment of leukocytes
      3. Destruction of the noxious agent
      4. Resolution of the inflammation
    • The inflammation response is mediated by chemical mediators, which are produced by:
      • Damaged cells
      • Immune cells (e.g., macrophages, T cells)
      • Platelets
    • The response to inflammation can be modulated by:
      • Immunosuppressive drugs
      • Cancer therapies

    Causes of Inflammation

    • The major causes of inflammation are:
      • Infections
      • Immunologic reactions
      • Tissue necrosis
      • Environmental substances

    Cell Injury and Cell Death

    • Cell injury occurs when cells are damaged or stressed, leading to cellular dysfunction or death.
    • Cell death can be caused by various factors, including:
      • Genetic mutations
      • Infections
      • Toxic substances
      • Radiation
      • Hypoxia
      • Nutrient deficiency
      • Hormonal imbalances

    Types of Cell Injury

    • Reversible cell injury: Cells can recover from injury with proper treatment.
    • Irreversible cell injury: Cells are severely damaged and cannot recover, leading to cell death.

    Consequences of Cell Injury

    • Inflammation: The body's response to cell injury, characterized by increased blood flow, swelling, and pain.
    • Repair: The body's attempt to heal damaged tissues, which can lead to scarring or fibrosis.

    Cellular Responses to Injury

    • Cellular stress responses: Cells respond to injury by activating stress responses, such as:
      • Heat shock proteins
      • Oxidative stress responses
      • DNA repair mechanisms
    • Cellular death responses: Cells can die through:
      • Apoptosis (programmed cell death)
      • Necrosis (unprogrammed cell death)

    Pathological Consequences of Cell Injury

    • Organ dysfunction: Cell injury can lead to organ dysfunction and failure.
    • Cancer: Genetic mutations can lead to cancer development.
    • Fibrosis: Chronic inflammation can lead to fibrosis and scarring.

    Hemosiderin and Lipofuscin

    • Hemosiderin: A brown pigment composed of ferritin and hemosiderin, which accumulates in cells due to iron overload.
    • Lipofuscin: A brown pigment composed of lipids and proteins, which accumulates in cells due to oxidative stress and cellular aging.

    Inflammation

    • Inflammation is a host response to infections and tissue damage that brings cells and molecules to the site of injury to eliminate the cause of injury and repair damaged tissue.
    • The response involves the activation of various cells, including leukocytes, and the production of mediators that orchestrate the inflammatory response.

    Causes of Inflammation

    • Infections (bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites) and microbial toxins are among the most common causes of inflammation.
    • Immunologic reactions, such as autoimmune diseases, can also cause inflammation.
    • Tissue necrosis, or cell death, can trigger an inflammatory response.
    • Environmental substances, such as foreign bodies, can also cause inflammation.

    Sequence of Events in Inflammation

    • The inflammatory response consists of sequential events involving vascular reactions and the recruitment of leukocytes.
    • The response is triggered by the recognition of microbial pathogens or damaged cells by receptors on the surface of cells.
    • The activation of these receptors leads to the production of mediators, which orchestrate the inflammatory response.

    Features of Acute and Chronic Inflammation

    • Acute inflammation is a short-term response to tissue damage, characterized by increased blood flow, swelling, and pain.
    • Chronic inflammation is a long-term response to tissue damage, characterized by the presence of lymphocytes and macrophages.

    Cellular Reactions of Chronic Inflammation

    • Chronic inflammation is characterized by the presence of lymphocytes and macrophages, which produce mediators that perpetuate the inflammatory response.
    • The presence of these cells can lead to tissue damage and the formation of granulomas.

    Tissue Repair

    • Tissue repair is a process that occurs after inflammation, characterized by the replacement of damaged tissue with new tissue.
    • The process involves the action of various cells, including fibroblasts, which produce collagen, and endothelial cells, which form new blood vessels.
