Regeneration (define):
|
Growth of cells/tissues to replace lost structures
Compensatory growth
|
How is repair different from regeneration?
|
Scar formation also by deposition of collagen
|
Repair and scar formation done by this process.
What signals?
|
Fibrosis
GFs, cytokines
|
Size of a cell population depends on what? (3)
|
Cell proliferation
Differentiation
Cell death
|
Labile tissue (define)
|
Continuously dividing
|
Quiescent tissue (define)
|
Stable tissue
low levels of division (G0 stage), but can enter G1 and rapidly divide
|
Permanent tissue
|
Nondividing; no cell division
(neurons, cardiac, skeletal muscle)
|
Stem cells: traits
|
1. prolonged capacity for self-renewal
2. Asymmetric replication
|
Assymetric replication (define):
|
One cell retains capacity to self-replicate and one cell differentiates into mature, non-dividing cell
|
Embryonic stem cell has what kind of potential?
Location?
|
1. Pluripotent--can give rise to all tissues of body
2. Inner cell mass of blastocyts
|
Adult stem cells
Location
Bone marrow types
|
1. tissues that continuously divide
2. hematopoietic, marrow stem cells
|
Function of hematopoietic stem cells
|
1. make blood cell lineage
2. make bone marrow
3. tx some hematologic diseases
|
Marrow stem cells
1. potential?
2. Function
|
1. multipotent
2. migrate to injured tissue, generate stromal cells
|
Cell cycle controlled by...
|
1. GFs
2. Signals from ECM thru integrins
|
The "gateway" into the cell cycle is...
|
Transition into G1
G0 --> G1
