Slide Content
ADAPTATION, INJURY and DEATH
of CELLS
Subject incharge
Mrs. Anjali M Wankhade
Depatment of Pharmacology
Pathology: the Study of Disease
•Etiology or cause: infection, genetic etc. and often
mutifactoral
•Pathogenesis: progression of the disease
•(Molecular and Morphologic Changes)
•Clinical Manifestations: signs and symptoms
HYPERTROPHY
•Increase in cell size with
subsequent increase in
organ size
Causes of Hypertrophy
1.Increased functional
demand
2.Hormonal stimulation
Hypertrophy of Uterus During Pregnancy
Hypertrophy of Uterus During Pregnancy
No new cells; Cells just bigger
•Hypertrophy can be
physiologic or pathologic
Cardiac Muscle Hypertrophy and Infarction
Results from increased production of cellular proteins
HYPERPLASIA
•Increase in the number of cells in an
organ which may then increase
organ size.
•Physiologic or Pathologic
PHYSIOLOGIC
HYPERPLASIA
1.Hormonal hyperplasia-
female breast at puberty and
in pregnancy
2.Compensatory hyperplasia-
liver regeneration after
partial resection
Female Breast Tissue after
Puberty
Lactating breast during pregnancy
Causes of Pathologic
Hyperplasia
1.Excess hormone-
endometrial hyperplasia
due to estrogens
•Hyperplasia is NOT a neoplastic
process, but it may be fertlie soil for
malignancy
•“Atypical Hyperplasia” in the
endometrium carries an increased risk
for development of endometrial
adenocarcinoma
Endometrial Hyperplasia
Normal Proliferative Endometrium
Endometrial Hyperplasia
Benign Prostatic Hypertrophy
ATROPHY
•Decrease in the size of a
cell or organ by loss of cell
substance (both size and
number)
Physiologic Atrophy
•Normal development
–Notochord
–Thyroglossal duct
•Uterus following childbirth
Causes of Pathologic Atrophy
1.Decreased workload
2.Loss of innervation
3.Decreased blood supply
4.Inadequate nutrition
5.Loss of endocrine stimulation
6.Pressure
**Central skeletal muscle bundle is atrophic
*

Atrophic Brain
Normal Brain
Atrophy results from both…
•Decreased protein synthesis
•Increased protein degradation
Protein degradation is
important in atrophy
A.Lysosomes with hydrolytic
enzymes
B.The ubiquitin-proteasome
pathway
HYPOPLASIA
•Incomplete development
of an organ so that it fails
to reach adult size
Examples of Hypoplasia
Hypoplastic Left Ventricle
Hypoplastic Kidney
METAPLASIA
•A reversible change in
which one ADULT cell type
is replaced by another
ADULT cell type
Metaplasia
•Caused by:
–Chronic irritation (cigarette smoke; calculi in ducts)
–Vitamin A deficiency
•Cervix- squamous epithelium of the endocervix replaces
columnar (dysplasia and squamous CA may develop)
•Barrett esophagus- gastric reflux results in columnar
epithelium replacing squamous epithelium in the esophagus
(dysplasia and adenocarcinoma may occur)
Squamous cells replace columnar cells
Esophagus: glandular epithelium (R) is metaplastic
Hyperplasia and Metaplasia are not
premalignant changes, however they are
“fertile fields” for Dysplasia which is a
premalignant change
DYSPLASIA
•Atypical proliferative
changes due to chronic
irritation or inflammation;
•Premalignant change
Mild dysplasia Moderate
dysplasia
Marked
dysplasia
DYSPLASIA IN THE CERVIX
CELL INJURY PRINCIPLES
1.The cellular response to injurious stimuli
depends on the type of injury, its duration
and its severity.
2.The consequences of cell injury depend on
the type, state, and adaptability of the
injured cell
3.Cell injury results from different
biochemical mechanisms acting on several
essential cellular components
1. The cellular response to injurious stimuli depends on the type of
injury, its duration and its severity.
Myocardial Infarction Markers
•Cardiac specific enzymes and proteins appear
in serum within 2 hours post infarction
•Morphologic (light microscopic) changes in 4-
12 hours
Normal
Myocardium
Coagulation Necrosis
at 24-48 hours post MI
A.Normal kidney
B.Reversible changes
C. Dying Cell
Normal Kidney Histology
Normal Tubules
Tubules Accumulate Water (cloudy swelling)
2. The consequences of cell injury depend
on the type, state, and adaptability of the
injured cell
3. Cell injury results from different biochemical mechanisms
acting on several essential cellular components
Depletion of ATP
•Na+ pump fails Na+ and water enter and K+
is lost
•Glycolysis depletes glycogen and lowers pH
(loss of enzyme activity)
•Ca++ pump fails- Ca++ into cells (toxic)
•Decreased protein synthesis (ribosomes
detach)
•Unfolded protein response
Mitochondrial Damage
•3 major consequences:
–Mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT) pore
opens loss of mitochondrial membrane
potential decreased oxidative phosphorylation
w/ decreased ATP
–Production of reactive oxygen species
– Leakage of pro-apoptotic proteins
Loss of Ca++ Homeostasis
•Extracellular Ca++ is 15X higher than
cytosolic Ca++
•Loss of ATP increases intracellular Ca++
•Increased Ca++ activates phospholipases,
proteases, endonucleases, and ATPases
•Increased Ca++ also increases
mitochondrial permeability triggering
apoptosis
Free Radical Formation
•Single unpaired electron; highly reactive
•Normal metabolism produces superoxide
anion, hydrogen peroxide and hydroxyl
ion; superoxide is produced in neutrophils
•Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are a type
of free radical
•Excess of ROS within cell leads to
oxidative stress
Pathologic Effects of ROS
•Lipid peroxidation leading to membrane
damage
•Protein damage
•DNA damage
Major Antioxidants
•Antioxidants block the formation of ROS or
inactivate them
•Antioxidant Enzymes: superoxide dismutase,
catalase, glutathione peroxidase
•Vitamins: A, E, ascorbic acid, glutathione
Membrane Permeability Defects
•Plasma membrane
•Mitochondrial membrane
•Lysosomal membrane- release of RNases,
DNases and proteases
CAUSES OF CELL INJURY
•Oxygen deprivation
•Physical agents
•Chemical agents and drugs
•Infectious agents
•Immunologic reactions
•Genetic derangements
•Nutritional imbalances
Hypoxia and Ischemia
•Hypoxia- deficiency of oxygen; causes:
cardiorespiratory failure, anemia, CO
poisoning
•Ischemia- loss of blood supply (oxygen and
nutrients); more rapidly and severely injures
tissues than does hypoxia alone
NECROSIS vs APOPTOSIS
•Necrosis- death of GROUPS of cells after injury;
usually with inflammation
•Apoptosis- genetically controlled, ATP and
enzyme-dependent death of individual cells;
usually no inflammation
–More details in part 2
NECROSIS
•Morphologic changes in GROUPS of cells that
follow the death of living tissue; cells and
PMNs leak lytic enzymes
•CYTOPLASM: eosinophilia, vacuoles,
calcification, myelin figures
•NUCLEUS: pyknosis, karyorrhexis, karyolysis
Patterns of Necrosis
•Coagulative- hypoxic death (except brain)
•Liquefactive- bacterial infections; *also hypoxic
death in brain tissue (infarction)
•Caseous- tuberculosis
•Fat- enzymatic or traumatic damage to fatty
tissue; eg. Pancreatitis (enzymatic)
•Gangrenous- usually involves lower extremities
and often is a type of coagulative necrosis
•Fibrinoid- immune complexes in arteries
