Altered physiologic stimuli: Cellular adaptations:
• ↑demand, ↑ trophic stimulation (e.g. growth
factors, hormones)• Hyperplasia, hypertrophy
• ↓ nutrients, stimulation • Atrophy
• Chronic irritation (chemical /physical) • Metaplasia
↓ O2 supply; chemical injury; microbial
infectionCell injury:
• Acute & self-limited • Acute reversible injury
• Progessive & severe (including DNA damage) • Irreversible injury ➙ cell death

Causes of atrophy :
1. ↓ functional demand (immobilitation in fracture, prolonged
bed rest)
2. Inadequate supply O2 (ischemia)
3. Insufficient nutrients (starvation, inadequate nutrition,
chronic disease)
4. Interruption of trophic signals transmitted by chemical
mediators (endocrine system/neuromusculator transmission)
e.g. : thyroid, adrenal cortex, ovarium, testis.
5. Persistent cell injury by chronic inflamation
e.g. : chronic gastritis, prolonged pressure
6. Aging : brain, heart (Senile Atrophy)

AtrophyA section of heart muscle (myocardium). The spaces between muscle fibers are not present in normal myocardium. The muscle fibers are thinner than normal creating spaces between them, a finding suggesting atrophy.3/28/2011 10

Morphologic changes that follow cell death in living tissue
1. Intense eosinophilia of the dead cell is due to loss of RNA & coagulation of protein
2. Nuclei undergo: 1. Pyknosis
2. Karyorhexis
3. Karyolysis
� Leaving a shrunken cell devoid of nucleus
3. Protein may be liberated from the dead cell
Necrosis

USU 2011
The morphologic appearance of necrosis isthe result of 2 essentially processes :
1. Enzymatic digestion of the cell2. Denaturation of protein
Autolysis : is a cell death by hydroliticenzymes
Heterolysis : cell death by the lysosomes of invading inflammatory cells.

Nuclear Changes: This nucleus is faded -- karyolysis.
Karyolytic nuclei suggest that cells have died (undergone necrosis).3/28/2011 41DEPARTEMEN PATOLOGI ANATOMI FK-

Nuclear Changes: Pyknosis While cytoplasmic changes associated with cell death are not specific, nuclear changes are. The large arrow indicates a normal-appearing nucleus while the smaller arrow indicates a nucleus that is small and dark -- features of "pyknosis." Pyknotic nuclei suggest that cells have died (are undergoing necrosis).

Fragmented nuclei suggest that cells have died. Karyorrhexis is the term used for this circumstance. The nucleus indicated by the large arrow may be undergoing karyorrhexis. The smaller arrow indicates a fragmented nucleus: it could be karyorrhexis or a mitotic figure (a cell undergoing mitosis).
