Cellular Adaptation Cellular Adaptation Dr. Adeboye OO (MBBS, Cert. LMIH, FMCPath) Dept of Anatomic Pathology Bowen University Cellular adaptation • Cell death is not the only consequence of cellular injury or stress • Cells can respond to excessive physiologic or pathologic stimuli by undergoing both functional and morphologic change in which a new steady state is achieved that preserves the viability of the cell(Adaptation) . • The adaptive response include- • Adaptation of growth and differentiation • Intracellular accumulation • Pathologic calcification • Hyaline change • Cellular aging Adaptation of growth and differentiation • Adaptations are reversible changes in the size, number,phenotype, metabolic activity, or functions of cells in response to changes in their environment. Such adaptations may take several distinct forms : • 1. hyperplasia • 2. hypertrophy • 3. atrophy • 4. metaplasia hypertrophy • Increase in the size of cells that result in the increase in size of the affected organ. • No new cells just larger cells • May coexist with hyperplasia in cells capable of division( eg epithelial, hematopoesis etc), in non dividing cells (eg the nerve ,cardiac and skeletal muscle) increase tissue mass is due to hypertrophy • Can be physiologic or pathologic Physiologic hypertrophy • Caused by- (a) increased functional demand eg hypertrophy of striated muscle in muscle builder.(b) stimulation by hormones or growth factors eg physiologic hypertrophy of the uterus during pregnancy Hypertrophy of uterus during pregnancy Micrograph showing smooth muscle hypertrophy Pathologic hypertrophy • Chronic hemodynamic overload due to hypertension or faulty valves causes cardiac hypertrophy Cardiac hypertrophy hyperplasia • Increase in the number of cells in a tissue or an organ in response to a stimulus • Frequently occur with hypertrophy and may be triggered by same external stimulus • Can only occur in tissue containing cells capable of dividing • Can be physiologic or pathologic Physiologic hyperplasia • Causes – (a) hormone or growth factor stimulation eg proliferation of glandular epithelium of the female breast at puberty and during pregnancy(usually accompanied by hypertrophy) (b). Compensatory increase after damage or resection eg liver regeneration after partial hepatectomy Pathologic hyperplasia • Causes- inappropriate or excessive action of hormone or growth factors on target cells eg endometrial hyperplasia due to unopposed oestrogen level, benign prostatic hyperplasia(BPH) due to excessive androgen stimulation. Atrophy • Reduction in the size of an organ or tissue due to decrease in cell size and number. • Can be physiologic or pathologic • Physiologic atrophy- decrease in the size of uterus after parturition, atrophy of some embryonic structure during normal development eg notochord and thyroglossal duct • Pathologic atrophy- causes : a) Disuse or decrease workload-Disuse atrophy b) Denervation atrophy c) Diminished blood supply d) Inadequate nutrition e) Loss of endocrine stimulation f) Pressure g) Aging/senility- senile atrophy Metaplasia • Reversible change in which one differentiated (adult) cell type(epithelial/mesenchymal) is replaced by another cell type • Adaptive response in which one cell that is sensitive to a particular stress is replaced by another cell type that is better able to withstand the adverse environment. • 1) Epithelial metaplasia- (a)meteplasia from columnar to squamous eg squamous metaplasia • of the respiratory epithelium in response to chronic irritation as occur in protracted cigarette smoking, squamous metaplasia of the bladder due to schistosomiasis, Vitamin A deficiency causes squamous metaplasia in the respiratory epithelium. Fig: squamous metaplasia of the bronchus • The influence that predispose to metaplasia if persistent, can initiate malignant transformation eg squamous cell carcinoma in the metaplastic epithelium of the resp. tract. • 2. metaplasia from squamous to columnar eg in barett oesophagus in which the oesophageal squamous epithelium is replaced by intestinal-like columnar epithelium under the influence of reflux of gastric acid. • Cancers may arise in this site (Adenocarcinoma). Metaplasia • Connective tissue metaplasia- formation of mesenchymal tissue (cartilage,bone ,adipose tissue) in tissues that normally do not contain these elements eg myositis osificans occasionally occurs after intramuscular hemorrhage. This type of metaplasia is less clearly seen as an adaptive response, and may be a result of cell or tissue injury. .

  • Efficacy of Texture and Color Enhancement Imaging In
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Efcacy of Texture and Color Enhancement Imaging in visualizing gastric mucosal atrophy and gastric neoplasms Tsubasa Ishikawa1, Tomoaki Matsumura1*, Kenichiro Okimoto1, Ariki Nagashima1, Wataru Shiratori1, Tatsuya Kaneko1, Hirotaka Oura1, Mamoru Tokunaga1, Naoki Akizue1, Yuki Ohta1, Keiko Saito1, Makoto Arai1,2, Jun Kato1 & Naoya Kato1 In 2020, Olympus Medical Systems Corporation introduced the Texture and Color Enhancement Imaging (TXI) as a new image-enhanced endoscopy. This study aimed to evaluate the visibility of neoplasms and mucosal atrophy in the upper gastrointestinal tract through TXI. We evaluated 72 and 60 images of 12 gastric neoplasms and 20 gastric atrophic/nonatrophic mucosa, respectively. The visibility of gastric mucosal atrophy and gastric neoplasm was assessed by six endoscopists using a previously reported visibility scale (1 = poor to 4 = excellent). Color diferences between gastric mucosal atrophy and nonatrophic mucosa and between gastric neoplasm and adjacent areas were assessed using the International Commission on Illumination L*a*b* color space system. The visibility of mucosal atrophy and gastric neoplasm was signifcantly improved in TXI mode 1 compared with that in white-light imaging (WLI) (visibility score: 3.8 ± 0.5 vs. 2.8 ± 0.9, p < 0.01 for mucosal atrophy; visibility score: 2.8 ± 1.0 vs. 2.0 ± 0.9, p < 0.01 for gastric neoplasm). Regarding gastric atrophic and nonatrophic mucosae, TXI mode 1 had a signifcantly greater color diference than WLI (color diferences: 14.2 ± 8.0 vs. 8.7 ± 4.2, respectively, p < 0.01). TXI may be a useful observation modality in the endoscopic screening of the upper gastrointestinal tract.

An additional case is reported with bilateral clostridial infections of the eye and orbit. One eye followed the classical course of relentless panophthalmitis, amaurosis, and orbital cellulitis ending in enucleation. The second eye contained intracameral mud and gas bubbles that were removed by vitrectomy instrumentation. Subsequent removal of the toxic cataract resulted in a final aided visual acuity of 6/18, N8.

While genetic testing has shown these clinical subtypes are not completely distinct, they are still widely used, and include:1-3 o Prenatal onset form (“Type 0” proposed) is characterized by polyhydramnios, decreased fetal movements, breech presentation, arthrogryposis multiplex congenita, respiratory failure at birth, and life span less than 6 months. o Type I (infantile or Werdnig-Hoffmann type) is the most common form (60-70% of cases). It presents before 6 months of age with death often before age 2 due to respiratory failure. Affected children have severe, generalized weakness and do not ever sit without support.

Different states of iron deficiency have long existed and remain very common in today’s population. The vast majority of cases of iron deficiency are acquired as a result from blood loss. Any condition in which dietary iron intake does not meet the body’s demands will result in iron deficiency. Iron and heme are both fundamental in hemoglobin synthesis and erythroid cell differentiation. In addition to act as a prosthetic group for hemoglobin, heme regulates the transcription of globin genes and controls the translational activity in erythroid precursors through modulation of the kinase activity of the eIF2α kinase HRI which is regulated by heme. HRI, the heme-regulated inhibitor of translation, was first discovered in reticulocytes under the conditions of iron and heme deficiencies. During heme deficiency conditions, in the erythroid precursors protein synthesis is inhibited by phosphorylation of the α-subunit of the eukaryotic initiation factor 2 (eIF2α) as the result of the activation of HRI. The role of HRI is to control that the amount of globin chains synthesized are not in excess of what can be utilized for hemoglobin tetramers depending of heme available.

CREDIT HOURS : 3 CREDIT HOURS SEQUENCE : YEAR 2, FIRST SEMESTER COURSE COORDINATOR: Dr. Alia AlMuhtaseb; Dr. Mohammad Orjani CONTACT: [email protected]; [email protected] Course Description: This course deals with the investigation of those pathological mechanisms common to all tissue-cell pathology. Attention is paid to the processes of cellular adaptation, inflammation, repair, immunology, cellular accumulation, and neoplasia. Lecture will attempt first to familiarize the student with our basic layers of defense. Next those vocabulary terms and concepts relevant to the disease process will be introduced. The terminology employed is both medical and chiropractic. Processes and concepts will be developed with the aid of Data show. An interactive format is employed in which the instructor poses questions to enable the student to self-test their knowledge prior to exams and develop skills in communicating these basic pathological concepts to others. During the course and whenever relevant the students are exposed to clinical problems to emphasize the explanations of symptoms, signs, investigations and forms of treatments. Practical sessions are planned to give students the opportunity to expose their knowledge for discussion and confirm concepts learned in lectures. Small group discussions of clinical cases are planned at the end of the course were students are divided into small groups and with the help of an instructor they analyze and discuss the problem. The course will be given through 28 lectures, 7 practical (laboratory) sessions, and one small group discussion activity over 15 weeks and for one whole semester.

Department of Radiology, Faculty of Medicine, Mashhad University of Medical Sciences, Mashhad, Iran Abstract Background: One of the treatment methods for increasing the ovarian response to ovulation induction in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is laparoscopic ovarian drilling (LOD). The optimal amount of the electrosurgical energy discharged in the ovaries to achieve maximum treatment response with minimal follicle injury is unknown. This study was performed to compare the success level of LOD by means of standard and dose-adjusted treatment methods among infertile clomiphene-resistant PCOS women. Materials and Methods: This randomized clinical trial was conducted on infertile clomiphene citrate-resistant PCOS women in the Gynaecology Department of Imam Reza Hospital between 2016 and 2017. The patients were randomly di- vided into two groups based on the ovarian cautery method. The two groups were examined and compared regarding the antral follicles, the serum levels of anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH), androgens, and mid-luteal progesterone one month after surgery. The regularity of cycles, ovulation, and pregnancy were examined monthly up to six months after surgery. Results: In total, 60 women received bilateral LOD (n=30 per group).

  • Tissue Engineering Strategies to Improve Tendon Healing and Insertion Site Integration
    Tissue Engineering Strategies to Improve Tendon Healing and Insertion Site Integration A dissertation submitted to the Division of Research and Advanced Studies of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY (Ph.D.) in the Department of Biomedical Engineering of the College of Engineering and Applied Science 2011 by Kirsten Rose Carol Kinneberg B.S., University of Minnesota, Twin Cities, MN, 2006 Committee Chair: Jason T. Shearn Abstract Tendon and ligament tears and ruptures remain common and significant musculoskeletal injuries. Repairing these injuries continues to be a prominent challenge in orthopaedics and sports medicine. Despite advances in surgical techniques and procedures, traditional repair techniques maintain a high incidence of re-rupture. This has led some researchers to consider using tissue engineered constructs (TECs). Previous studies in our laboratory have demonstrated that TEC stiffness at the time of surgery is positively correlated with repair tissue stiffness 12 weeks post-surgery. This correlation provided the rationale for implanting a soft tissue patellar tendon autograft (PTA) to repair a central-third defect in the rabbit patellar tendon (PT). The PTA was significantly stiffer than previous TECs and matched the stiffness of the normal central-third PT. Accordingly, we expected a significant improvement in repair tissue biomechanics relative to both natural healing (NH) and TEC repair. At 12 weeks, treatment with PTA improved repair tissue stiffness relative to NH. However, PTA and NH tissues did not differ in maximum force, modulus or maximum stress. Additionally, neither repair group regenerated normal zonal insertion sites.
