Pathophysiology Course Overview and Guide

This document provides an overview of pathophysiology concepts including: 1. It defines key terminology like pathology, pathophysiology, disease, etiology, clinical manifestations, and pathogenesis. 2. It describes the normal functioning of eukaryotic cells and their organelles. 3. It explains common cellular responses to injury like hypoxia, ischemia, intoxication, trauma, and free radicals and discusses forms of cell death like apoptosis and necrosis.

Terminolo$y
- Pathology < ocus on physical chan$es in %isease% or$ans an% tissues - Pathophysiology < abnormal unctionin$ o %isease% or$ans an% how it applies to me%ical treatment an% patient care

Disease < loss o homeostasis, or when physical or mental capacities cannot be ully utili4e% =interuption, cessation or %isor%er in the unction o an or$an or system>. Etiology 5 cause o the %isease When the etiolo$y is unknown, the %isease is sai% to be idiopathic.

Cate$ories o etiolo$y
- Genetic disease< $enes are responsible or a structural or unctional %e ect - ongenital disease< $enetic in ormation is intact, but the intrauterine en*ironment inter eres with normal %e*elopment - !c"ui#ed disease < %isease is cause% by actors encountere% a ter birth =biolo$ical a$ents, physical orces, an% chemical a$ents>

Pathogenesis 8 se#uence o e*ents in the o %e*elopment o a %isease &e"uelae < lesions or impairments resultin$ rom a %isease !cute conditions < rapi% onset, %e*elop #uickly, usually o short %uration h#onic conditions < lon$er %uration onset may be su%%en or insidious

Atrophy = shrinkage = decrease in cell size. Due to %ecrease% use %ecrease% bloo% supply %ecrease% nutrition ($ tissues o# o#gans may be %ue to cell shrinka$e or %ue to cell %eath.

Hypertrophy = increase in cell size WeEll see this in heart, ki%ney =an% others> wF patholo$y &(T %ue to increase% cell *olume or lui% @ather, %ue to increase% protein synthesis within the cell, or %ecrease% protein break%own )esult is inc#eased p#otein in o#ganelles Hyperplasia = increase in cell nu!"er )ue to increase% cell %i*ision ,terus an% breast tissue Parathyroi% $lan% in ki%ney ailure Li*er =compensatory hyperplasia>

#etaplasia = replace!ent of one cell type $ith another @e*ersible +n example: ciliate% columnar epithelium replace% by strati ie% s#uamous epithelium

Dysplasia = change in cell resulting in a"nor!al cell size, shape or organization WeEll see this in respiratory tract, cer*ix wF patholo$y In mature cells only *mmatu#e cells +ould ,e expected to change in si-e, shape as they g#o+ and matu#e Consi%ere% a re*ersible chan$e %eoplasia = associated $ith a !alignant tu!or

Cellular inCury < cell unable to maintain homeostasis


- auses o$ cell in.u#y: - De$iciency < lack o a substance necessary to the cell - *ntoxication o# poisoning < presence o a toxin or substance that inter eres with cell unctionin$ - T#auma < physical inCury an% loss o cell?s structural inte$rity

De$iciencies: De$iciency in oxygen most impo#tant

/ypoxia 0 de$iciency in oxygen at cell )ue to : Decreased oxygen in air Decreased hemoglobin or decreased oxygen transported to cells Diseases of the respiratory and/or cardiovascular system

Important to cell because o oxi%ati*e phosphorylation, which results in the pro%uction o +TP Oxidative: need oxygen to produce ATP ATP: needed by cell for metabolism, cell life
