5
What is pathology? Patho… disease Logy… study
Pathology = study of disease involves: causes of disease.. Etiology : mechanisms.. pathogenesis :morphological changes.
6
Etiology: Origin of disease , underlying causes.
Pathogenesis: steps in the development of disease…… cellular and molecular changes . Morphology: macroscopic and microscopic changes.
7
Why to study pathology???
8
Cellular adaptations and cell injury
Cells maintain a steady state.. Homeostasis. Stresses .. Adaptation….. New homeostatic state with preservation of function. Stress beyond capability of adaptation.. Cell injury. Cell injury… reversible within certain limits Then .. Irreversible…. Ends in cell death. Two types of cell death: necrosis and apoptosis.
12
Adaptation Hyertrophy Hyperplasia Atrophy metaplasia
13
Adaptation Adaptive changes are reversible.
Can be physiologic or pathologic.
14
Hypertrophy: Increased cell size.
Hyperplasia: increased number of cells.. Cell division. Metaplasia: change from one adult cell type to another Atrophy: decreased size.
15
Hypertrophy versus hyperplasia
16
Hypertrophy Increased cell size.
Due to increased organelles and proteins. Increased intracellular synthesis.. Caused by: increased demands, hormones or growth factors.
17
Physiologic hypertrophy
Uterus during pregnancy… due to estrogen Skeletal muscle… due to increased demand
18
Physiologic hypertrophy
19
Pathologic hypertrophy
Cardiac.. Hypertensive heart disease Pathogenesis.. Two types of signals: mechanical: stretch and trophic: growth factors and androgenic hormones
20
Pathologic hypertrophy
21
Pathologic hypertrophy
22
hyperplasia Only in tissues that can replicate.
Can be physiologic or pathologic.
23
Physiologic hyperplasia
Hormonal: uterus, breast. Compensatory: after removal or loss of part of tissue.
24
Gingival hyperplasia
25
Pathologic hyperplasia
Due to excess in hormones or growth factors. E:g endometrial hyperplasia. Controlled.. Responds to decreased stimulation. This differentiates it from cancer
26
Normal endometrium
27
Endometrial hyperplasia
28
atrophy Shrinkage in cell size due to loss of cell substance. Causes
decreased work load. Loss of innervation Loss of endocrine stimulation. Aging
29
Muscle atrophy
30
Brain atrophy
31
Atrophy Physiologic: endometrial atrophy during menopause
Pathologic: loss of innervation.
32
atrophy Mechanisms: Decreased protein synthesis.
Degradation of cellular proteins. Autophagy…. Literally means self eating.
33
metaplasia Adult cell type replaced by another adult cell type.
Arise in reprogrammed stem cells to differentiate along a new pathway.
34
Epithelial metaplasia
Respiratory epithelium to squamous. Barrett's mucosa.. Esophegeal squamous to columnar
35
Barrett’s mucosa
36
Normal esophegeal mucosa
37
Metaplastic, Barrett’s mucosa
38
Metaplasia in mesenchymal tissue
Usually pathologic Ossification of soft tissue due to injury.
