About Event | Cells constantly adapt to physiological demands to maintain a homeostatic steady state. Cells adapt by performing excess work, replicating, decreasing functions, changing its differentiated properties etc. The main adaptations to a persistent stimulus may involve cellular hypertrophy, hyperplasia and metaplasia. Atrophy occurs whenever certain normal stimuli (workload, blood supply, etc) are decreased or lost. Depending on the specific condition, adaptive reactions can produce organ damage. Through these adaptations cells maintain their viability. The term cell injury is used to indicate a state in which the capacity for physiological adaptation is exceeded. This may occur when the stimulus is excessive or when the cell is no longer capable to adapt without suffering some form of damage. The capacity for adaptation and the sensitivity to different types of injury varies according to cell type (i.e. myocardial cells and neurons are highly sensitive to ischemic injury; hepatocytes are more sensitive to chemical than ischemic injury). Cell injury may be reversible (non-lethal damage which generally can be corrected by removal of the stimulus) or irreversible (lethal damage). The transition between reversible and irreversible damage, commonly referred to as the “point of no return” is of major importance. Recognition of the point of no return is a key element for devising therapeutic strategies to prevent cell death after injury This lecture will help paramedical students to get knowledge on different kinds of cell injury and their different adaptations. | |||||||||||||
