Granzyme B MOA
cleaves asparagine residues and activates caspases
Intrinsic apoptosis
embryogenesis, hormone induction, atrophy. Changes in level of anti-apoptotic and apoptotic factors lead to increase mitochondrial permeability and the release of cytochrome C
Extrinsic apoptosis
ligand-receptor interactions (T-cells, NK cells) via Fas ligand binding to Fas (CD95) or ia perforin and granzyme B
CD95
aka Fas, binds to Fas ligand, initiates extrinsic apoptosis
Pyknosis
basophilia
Karyorrhexis
nuclear fragmentation
Karyolysis
nuclear fading
Reperfusion injury
due to damage by fre radicals
Acute inflammation
neutrophil, eosinophil, antibody mediated
Chronic inflammation
mononuclear cell mediated
associated w/ blood vessel proliferation, fibrosis
LDH ratio in exudate
LDH/serum LDH > 0.6
Protein ratio in exudate
Fluid protein/serum protein > 0.5
Rolling
Vasculature: selectins
Leukocyte: Sialyl LewisX, addressins
Tight binding
Vasculature: ICAM-1
Leukocyte: LFA-1 (integrin), VLA-4
Diapedesis
Vasculature: PECAM-1
Leukocyte: PECAM-1
Migration
C5a, IL-8, LTB4, Kallikrein, N-formylmethionine
Cytokines that stimulate expression of vasculature adhesion molecules
IL-1, TNF
Things that inhibit expression of adhesion molecules
catecholamines, corticosteroids
Free radical injury does these 3 things
membrane lipid peroxidation, protein modification, DNA breakage
Color of amyloid w/ H/E stain
pink
Chronic inflammatory amyloidosis
AA protein derived from serum amyloid-associated protein (SAA)
Senile cardiac amyloidosis
Transthyretin protein derived from AF
Hypovolemic/cardiogenic shock vs. septic shock
Hypovol/Cardio: Low-output, increased TPR, cold, clammy, decreased venous PO2
Septic: high-output, decreased TPR, dilated arterioles, hot patient, increased venous PO2 (because blood is rushing by so fast that the cells can't extract the oxygen)
Metastatic cells have increased expression of...
laminin, integrin, DECREASED cadherin
Carcinoma metastasis

bladder, cancer, breast cancer, melanoma
cyclin-D oncogene
breast, liver, esophageal cancer, mantle cell lymphoma
fms oncogene
myelodysplastic syndrome
BRCA1
17q, breast AND ovarian cancer
BRCA2
13q, breast cancer only
p53
17q, most human cancers
p16
