INTRODUCTION
Due to changes in external environment human body
made changes within itself to make it equal with
external environment.
Internal environment = External Environment
HOMEOSTASIS
It is a condition when our cells internal environment is
constant with external environment
Derived from 2 greek words
HOMEOSTASIS= MOMEO + STASIS
(same/constant) (state/phase)
It means studying the constant/same by maintaining pH,
temperature, acid-base balance.

FEEDBACK SYSTEM
A system who responsing back
Components of feedback system:
All the body organ co-ordinate with each other to
maintain homeostasis.
This co-ordination of homeostasis is controlled by
feedback system with the help of nuro-endocrine
system
It has three components –
1. Receptors
2. Control center
3. Effector
Receptors- It is a type of sensor or which
receive/detects changes or other stimuli.
Control center- It receive the signal from receptor
through blood veins and analyze it
Effector- It response to signal or stimuli receptor

NEGATIVE FEEDBACK
• Negative feedback is the most common feedback loop in
the biological system.
• Negative feedback is the one to which the system reacts in
such a way as to arrest the change or reverse the
direction of change.
• After receiving a message, the effectors send negative
feedback signals back to the system.
• Now the system stabilizes its own function and makes an
attempt to maintain homeostasis.
• Many homeostatic mechanism in the body function
through negative feedback.
• Negative feedback also regulates many systems in
organisms
A thermostat is a device for regulating the temperature of a system so that the
system's temperature is maintained near a desired setpoint temperature.

Temperature Regulation of the Body
• Increased temperature causes
vasodilatation (blood vessels near
the surface of the skin dilate).
• The large surface area allows heat
to be lost from the blood and
lowers the body temperature.
 Sweating also helps lower the temperature.
 Decreased temperature causes vasoconstriction (blood vessels
constrict) and minimal heat loss occurs which helps maintain
body temperature.
 Hair on the body provides insulation and helps maintain body
temperature.
Positive Feedback
• A positive feedback loop occurs when the output of a
system acts to enhance the changes to the input of the
system.
• One example of a biological positive feedback loop is
the onset of contractions in childbirth.
– When a contraction occurs, the hormone oxytocin
is released into the body, which stimulates further
contractions.
– This results in contractions increasing in amplitude
and frequency.
• Another example is blood clotting.
– The loop is initiated when injured tissue releases
signal chemicals that activate platelets in the
blood.
– An activated platelet releases chemicals to activate
more platelets, causing a rapid cascade and the
formation of a blood clot.
• Lactation involves positive feedback so that the
more the baby suckles, the more milk is produced.
• In most cases, once the purpose of the feedback loop is
completed, counter-signals are released that suppress or
break the loop.
– Childbirth contractions stop when the baby is out of
the mother's body.
– Chemicals break down the blood clot.
– Lactation stops when the baby no longer nurses.
ROLE OF VARIOUS SYSTEMS IN THE BODY
• Each body system contributes to the homeostasis of other systems.
• No system of the body works in isolation.
• Well being of the person depends upon the well being of all the
interacting body systems.
NERVOUS SYSTEM: The nervous system
maintains homeostasis by controlling and regulating the
other parts of the body. Regulating centers
are located in the CNS, consisting of the brain and spinal cord.
ENDOCRINE SYSTEM
• Endocrine system consist of glands which secrete hormones into the
blood stream.
• Each hormone has an effect on one or more target tissues, in this way
the endocrine system
• Regulates the metabolism and development of most body cells and
body systems.
• INTEGUMENTARY SYSTEM:
• Synthesize vitamin D which interact with calcium and phosphorus
absorption needed for bone growth, maintenance and repair.
• Skin help to maintain balance by excretion of water and other solutes.
Pathophysiology Unit 1- HOMEOSTASIS Part-I.pptx
SKELETAL SYSTEM
• Protection is the pivotal role occupied by the
skeletal system.
MUSCULAR SYSTEM:
Also responsible for involuntary(breathing,
digestion)
and voluntary (walking, picking up objects)
actions.
CARDIOVASCULR SYSTEM:
The cardiovascular system, in addition to needing
to maintain itself within certain levels,
plays a role in maintenance of the other body
system
RESPIRATORY SYSTEM
• Respiratory systems works in
conjunction(Collaboration) with the
cardiovascular system to provide oxygen to
cells within every body system for cellular
metabolism.
• Also remove CO2 from lungs
• Helps in maintain proper blood pH levels.
CELL INJURY
• Cells are the basic unit of tissue, which forms
organ and systems of body
• Cell injury is defined as effect of variety of stress
that causes changes in cell’s internal as well as
external environment
• The cellular response to stress depends on
variety of factors and also the cell injury can be
either reversible and irreversible.
• It is a change or alteration in cells structure or
functions due to some stress that exceed the
ability of cells to handle it
• When the intensity of stress is severe, cell may
lead to death
Pathophysiology Unit 1- HOMEOSTASIS Part-I.pptx
Cellular Adaptation:
It is a process of any cell to survive in any
opposite or adverse situation.
These are the temporary or permanent changes
in the shape, size or type of cell.
It occurred due to functional demand and revert
back to its normal state and function.
Eg. Atropy, hypertropy, hyperplasia.
REVERSIBLE CELL INJURY:
If the stress applied on the cell is mild to
moderate level
when the applied stress is removed, cell
recovered itself back to its normal state
knoen as reversible cell injury
IRREVERSIBLE CELL INJURY:
It is the stress applied on the cell of very
severe level then it may lead to cell death.
Eg. Apoptosis, necrosis
Etiology/ Causes of cell injury
There are variety of stress causes cell
injury.
The reasons for reversible and irreversible
cell injury are same:
They are mainly classified into 2 types:
A. Genetic
B. Acquired
GENETIC CAUSES:
When cell injury occurs due to defect in
genes or
chromosomes, then these type of causes
known as as genetic
causes.
These are of following types:
1. Develpomental defect
2. Cytogenic effect
3. Single gene defect
4. Multifunctional inheritance defect
DEVELOPMENTAL DEFECT: Occred in featal life
CYTOGENIC DEFECT: Abnormalities of
chromosomes. It can be either structural or
functional
SINGLE GENE DEFECT: Also known as MENDELIAN
disorder.
Occurred due to damage to single gene
MULTIFUNCTIONAL INHERITANCE DEFECT:
Multifactorial inheritance, also known as
complex inheritance.
Multifactorial inheritance is when more than 1 factor
causes a health
Acquired causes
Like genetic disorder there are many
acquired disorders:
•Hypoxia and Ischemia
•Physical agents
•Chemical agents and drugs
•Microbial agents
•Immunological agents
•Nutritional derangements
•Psychological factors
HYPOXIA AND ISCHEMIA:
•Cells of body require oxygen and blood to
generate energy and perform different
functions.
•Hypoxia is defined as loss of oxygen
supply while
•Ischemia is defined as loss of blood supply
•Both are of the major causes for cell injury
• 2. Physical agents
• Direct Physical Effects- Exposure of tissue to
extreme heat or cold results in direct injury that
is often irreversible, resulting in a pattern of
coagulative necrosis.
• Sudden changes in pressure can cause cellular
disruption (e.g. a hammer blow to the thumb).
• Electrical currents can cause direct breakdown of
cellular membranes that may be irreversible.
3. Chemical agents & drugs:
• Common poisons (arsenic, cyanide,
mercury) interfere with cellular
metabolism. If ATP levels drop below
critical levels, affected cells will die.
• The list of pharmaceuticals that may have
toxic effects on cells is enormous.
• Some act directly, but most have their
effect through breakdown metabolites.
Metabolism of alcohol (a type of drug) to
acetaldehyde is one example.
4.Microbial agent
• Injuries by microbes include infections caused
by Fungi, Rickettsiae, Bacteria, parasites and
Viruses
5. Immunologic agents:
Double –edged sword’- protects the host against
various injurious
agents but it may also cause cell injury.
• Hypersensitivity reactions
• Anaphylactic reactions to a foreign body
• Autoimmune diseases(allergies)
• 6. Nutritional Imbalances:
• Both a lack of essential nutrients and an
excess of certain nutrients can disrupt
cellular functions and lead to damage.
• Deficiencies in calories, protein, vitamins,
or essential fatty acids can all impair
cellular processes, while excessive intake
of things like cholesterol or certain fats
can also lead to cellular harm
7. Psychogenic diseases:
• No specific biochemical or morphologic
changes in acquired mental diseases.
• problems of drug addiction, alcoholism &
smoking results in various organic diseases
such as liver damage, chronic bronchitis, lung
cancer, peptic ulcer, HT, IHD etc
Biochemical Changes:
These involve changes in brain chemicals
(neurotransmitters like dopamine, serotonin,
norepinephrine).
For example, two individuals with depression might
show different neurochemical profiles.
Morphologic Changes:
This refers to changes in the structure or shape of brain
tissue (as seen on imaging like MRI or CT scans)
Acquired Mental Diseases:
These are not present at birth but develop due to
environmental, psychological, or physical factors.
Examples: Depression, anxiety, schizophrenia (possibly
both genetic and acquired)
8. Genetic derangements:
• Result in a defect as severe as the congenital
malformations associated with down
syndrome, caused by chromosomal
abnormalities.
• Inborn error of metabolism arising from
enzymatic
• abnormalities.
Pathogenesis/Mechanism of cell injury:
It is process of causes of cell injury, which involve
following steps:
1. Cell membrane damage
2. Mitochondrial damage
3. Ribosome damage
4. Nuclear damage
Pathophysiology Unit 1- HOMEOSTASIS Part-I.pptx
Pathogenesis of reversible cell
injury:
• Hypoxia or ischemia decreases
generation of cellular ATP.
• Sodium potassium pump damage leads
to accumulation of sodium and water
inside cell which ultimately causes cell
swelling
• Increased anaerobic glycolysis leads to
increase formation of lactic acid which
causes clumping of chromatin
Pathogenesis of irreversible cell injury:
The pathogenesis of irreversible cell injury refers
to the sequence of events by which a cell sustains
damage that leads to permanent dysfunction and
death, typically by necrosis or apoptosis. This
usually follows prolonged or severe stress that
the cell cannot adapt to or recover from.
• Increased calcium influx: Mitochondrial
damage
• Phospholipase activation: Membrane
damage
• Protease activation: Protein damage
• Endonuclease activation: Nuclear damage
• Atpase activation: ATP Damage
1. CELL MEMBRANE DAMAGE
• Membrane of cell can be easily damaged
by any type of destructive physical
agents like heat or radiation
• Loss of oxygen supply causes hypoxia,
decreases ATP formation and due to this
supply of essential material that cell
needs to survive get reduced
• Also influx of calcium ions in cell leads to
cell injury
2. MITOCHONDRIAL DAMAGE
•Mitochondria are critical for cell survival,
mainly due to their role in ATP production.
When they are damaged beyond repair, it
becomes a point of no return in
irreversible cell injury.
•Increased cytosolic calcium leads to
increase in inorganic phosphate and
certain fatty acids
•Inorganic phosphate and fatty acids alone
cannot damage the mitochondria but
along with calcium ions they can damage
Causes of Mitochondrial Damage:
• Hypoxia/ischemia reduces oxidative
→
phosphorylation.
• Calcium overload in cytosol.
• Reactive oxygen species (ROS) damage
mitochondrial membranes.
• Toxins (e.g., cyanide, alcohol, drugs).
Consequences of Mitochondrial Damage:
1.Failure of Oxidative Phosphorylation Damaged
inner mitochondrial membrane loss of
→
electron transport chain.
2.↓ ATP production energy failure cell death.
→ →
3. RIBOSOMAL DAMAGE
•Ribosomes are essential for protein
synthesis in the cell.
• Damage to ribosomes, or detachment from
the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), severely
impairs the cell’s ability to make proteins—
this is a key feature of reversible injury, but
when prolonged, it contributes to
irreversible cell damage.
•Decrease in ATP formation to detachment of
ribosomes from rough endoplasmic
3. NUCLEAR DAMAGE
Nuclear damage is a hallmark of irreversible
cell injury and a strong indicator that the
cell is undergoing death — either by
necrosis or apoptosis. Once nuclear
structures are disrupted, the cell cannot
recover.
The decrease in ATP formation and loss of
oxygen supply leads to increase anaerobic
glycolysis which results into increased lactic
acid formation
This lactic acid leads to clumping of
MORPHOLOGY OF CELL INJURY
-Adaptive changes are the adjustment made
by cell in the response of stress
-These changes can be physiological as well
as pathological
-Adaptive changes are generally related to
change in size, shape, or type.
-Following are the adaptions cell made in the
reponses of stress
• Atrophy
• Hypertrophy
• Hyperplasia
• Metaplasia
MORPHOLOGY OF CELL INJURY
Atrophy is a reduction in cell size and
function.
• It can be physiological (normal) or
pathological (disease-related).
• Caused by disuse, denervation, ischemia,
malnutrition, hormonal loss, or pressure.
• Involves decreased protein synthesis and
increased degradation.
• Atrophy found in heart, ske;etal muscle,
brain.
MORPHOLOGY OF CELL INJURY
Hypertrophy is an increase in the size of
individual cells, leading to an increase in the size of
the affected organ or tissue. The number of cells
does not increase (that’s hyperplasia).
It is occurred due to increased functional demand.
It is either physiological or pathological
MORPHOLOGY OF CELL INJURY
Hyperplasia is an increase in the number of
cells in an organ or tissue, leading to an increase in
size.
Occurs mainly in tissues with cells capable of
mitosis (e.g., epithelial and glandular tissues).
Often occurs together with hypertrophy.
Mechanism of Hyperplasia:
Increased demand or hormonal stimulation →
growth factors released.
Enhanced DNA synthesis and mitosis.
MORPHOLOGY OF CELL INJURY
Metaplasia is when one type of mature cell in
your body changes into another type of mature
cell.
This usually happens because the new cell type is
stronger and can handle things like irritation or
injury better.
For example, if the cells lining your windpipe get
irritated by cigarette smoke, they might change
from one kind of cell to another that is tougher and
protects better.
The good news is, this change can go back to
normal if the irritation or stress stops.
MORPHOLOGY OF CELL INJURY
Dysplasia is when cells in a tissue start to grow
abnormally.
The cells look different from normal cells — they
might be irregular in size, shape, or organization.
This is often a response to ongoing irritation or
damage.
Dysplasia isn’t cancer yet, but if the problem keeps
going, these abnormal cells might turn into
cancer later.
Dysplasia is usually reversible
if the irritating factor is removed
early.
CELLULAR SWELLING
•Accumulation of water in the cell
•It occurs b’coz of imbalance in between sodium and
potassium pump
•Cellular swelling is the earliest and most common
sign of reversible cell injury.
•It happens when a cell takes in too much water,
causing it to swell and look bigger under the
microscope.
Why does it happen?
•When a cell is injured, its energy production (ATP)
drops.
•Without enough ATP, the sodium-potassium pump
(Na⁺/K⁺-ATPase) fails.
•Sodium (Na⁺) builds up inside the cell.
CELLULAR SWELLING
•Swollen cells have distended organelles
(like mitochondria and ER).
•The plasma membrane becomes leaky and
can develop blebs.
•The cell can still recover if the injury is mild
and removed.
INTRACELLULAR ACCUMULATION
•Intracellular accumulation is simply defined
as accumulation of abnormal substances that
can temporarily or permanently damage a
cell.
•It can be occurs due to overproduction,
abnormal metabolism
•It can be either reversible or irreversible.
CALCIFICATION
It is defined as accumulation of
calcium in body tissues
It is normally occurs in the formation
of bone but abnormal deposition of
calcium can disrupt body’s natural
process
Calcification can be occur almost in
every part of and eventually leads to
health problem
It occurs due to hypercalcemia,
CALCIFICATION
•Most of the body's organ functions at a cetrain
pH range.
•Disable in thes pH range can causes disturbance
in functioning. Ideally pH of blood is 7.4
•If the pH of blood falls down 7.4 then it is
defined as acidosis.
•If the pH of blood goes above 7.4 then it is
defined as alkalosis.
•Acidosis and alkalosis are of two types:
•Respiratory
•Metabolic
ELECTROLYTE IMBALANCE
• Bloodstream contains many chemical that are
very essential for normal body functions.
Electrolytes are one of them
• Calcium, magnesium, sodium, potassium are
some examples of electrolytes
• Now imbalance in these electrolytes can cause
variety of disturbance.
• Electrolytes imbalance can become result into
vomiting, diarria, sweating, high fever.
Pathophysiology Unit 1- HOMEOSTASIS Part-I.pptx
anaerobic glycolysis: a metabolic process where glucose is broken down in the
absence of oxygen, resulting in the production of ATP and lactic acid
Cell Swelling and Lysis:
Accumulation of sodium within the cell, due to pump failure, can lead to osmosis,
causing water to rush into the cell and potentially causing it to swell and rupture.
Attached ribosomes synthesize proteins that are transported out of the cell via secretory
vesicles
The endoplasmic reticulum is involved in the transportation of substances throughout
the cell. It plays a primary role in the metabolism of carbohydrates, synthesis of lipids,
steroids and proteins.
Ribosomes are the protein synthesisers of the cell.

  • 29. HYPOXIA AND ISCHEMIA: •Cells of body require oxygen and blood to generate energy and perform different functions. •Hypoxia is defined as loss of oxygen supply while •Ischemia is defined as loss of blood supply •Both are of the major causes for cell injury
  • 30. • 2. Physical agents • Direct Physical Effects- Exposure of tissue to extreme heat or cold results in direct injury that is often irreversible, resulting in a pattern of coagulative necrosis. • Sudden changes in pressure can cause cellular disruption (e.g. a hammer blow to the thumb). • Electrical currents can cause direct breakdown of cellular membranes that may be irreversible.
  • 31. 3. Chemical agents & drugs: • Common poisons (arsenic, cyanide, mercury) interfere with cellular metabolism. If ATP levels drop below critical levels, affected cells will die. • The list of pharmaceuticals that may have toxic effects on cells is enormous. • Some act directly, but most have their effect through breakdown metabolites. Metabolism of alcohol (a type of drug) to acetaldehyde is one example.
  • 32. 4.Microbial agent • Injuries by microbes include infections caused by Fungi, Rickettsiae, Bacteria, parasites and Viruses 5. Immunologic agents: Double –edged sword’- protects the host against various injurious agents but it may also cause cell injury. • Hypersensitivity reactions • Anaphylactic reactions to a foreign body • Autoimmune diseases(allergies)
  • 33. • 6. Nutritional Imbalances: • Both a lack of essential nutrients and an excess of certain nutrients can disrupt cellular functions and lead to damage. • Deficiencies in calories, protein, vitamins, or essential fatty acids can all impair cellular processes, while excessive intake of things like cholesterol or certain fats can also lead to cellular harm
  • 34. 7. Psychogenic diseases: • No specific biochemical or morphologic changes in acquired mental diseases. • problems of drug addiction, alcoholism & smoking results in various organic diseases such as liver damage, chronic bronchitis, lung cancer, peptic ulcer, HT, IHD etc
  • 35. Biochemical Changes: These involve changes in brain chemicals (neurotransmitters like dopamine, serotonin, norepinephrine). For example, two individuals with depression might show different neurochemical profiles. Morphologic Changes: This refers to changes in the structure or shape of brain tissue (as seen on imaging like MRI or CT scans) Acquired Mental Diseases: These are not present at birth but develop due to environmental, psychological, or physical factors. Examples: Depression, anxiety, schizophrenia (possibly both genetic and acquired)
  • 36. 8. Genetic derangements: • Result in a defect as severe as the congenital malformations associated with down syndrome, caused by chromosomal abnormalities. • Inborn error of metabolism arising from enzymatic • abnormalities.
  • 37. Pathogenesis/Mechanism of cell injury: It is process of causes of cell injury, which involve following steps: 1. Cell membrane damage 2. Mitochondrial damage 3. Ribosome damage 4. Nuclear damage
  • 39. Pathogenesis of reversible cell injury: • Hypoxia or ischemia decreases generation of cellular ATP. • Sodium potassium pump damage leads to accumulation of sodium and water inside cell which ultimately causes cell swelling • Increased anaerobic glycolysis leads to increase formation of lactic acid which causes clumping of chromatin
  • 40. Pathogenesis of irreversible cell injury: The pathogenesis of irreversible cell injury refers to the sequence of events by which a cell sustains damage that leads to permanent dysfunction and death, typically by necrosis or apoptosis. This usually follows prolonged or severe stress that the cell cannot adapt to or recover from. • Increased calcium influx: Mitochondrial damage • Phospholipase activation: Membrane damage • Protease activation: Protein damage • Endonuclease activation: Nuclear damage • Atpase activation: ATP Damage
  • 41. 1. CELL MEMBRANE DAMAGE • Membrane of cell can be easily damaged by any type of destructive physical agents like heat or radiation • Loss of oxygen supply causes hypoxia, decreases ATP formation and due to this supply of essential material that cell needs to survive get reduced • Also influx of calcium ions in cell leads to cell injury
  • 42. 2. MITOCHONDRIAL DAMAGE •Mitochondria are critical for cell survival, mainly due to their role in ATP production. When they are damaged beyond repair, it becomes a point of no return in irreversible cell injury. •Increased cytosolic calcium leads to increase in inorganic phosphate and certain fatty acids •Inorganic phosphate and fatty acids alone cannot damage the mitochondria but along with calcium ions they can damage
  • 43. Causes of Mitochondrial Damage: • Hypoxia/ischemia reduces oxidative → phosphorylation. • Calcium overload in cytosol. • Reactive oxygen species (ROS) damage mitochondrial membranes. • Toxins (e.g., cyanide, alcohol, drugs). Consequences of Mitochondrial Damage: 1.Failure of Oxidative Phosphorylation Damaged inner mitochondrial membrane loss of → electron transport chain. 2.↓ ATP production energy failure cell death. → →
  • 44. 3. RIBOSOMAL DAMAGE •Ribosomes are essential for protein synthesis in the cell. • Damage to ribosomes, or detachment from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), severely impairs the cell’s ability to make proteins— this is a key feature of reversible injury, but when prolonged, it contributes to irreversible cell damage. •Decrease in ATP formation to detachment of ribosomes from rough endoplasmic
  • 45. 3. NUCLEAR DAMAGE Nuclear damage is a hallmark of irreversible cell injury and a strong indicator that the cell is undergoing death — either by necrosis or apoptosis. Once nuclear structures are disrupted, the cell cannot recover. The decrease in ATP formation and loss of oxygen supply leads to increase anaerobic glycolysis which results into increased lactic acid formation This lactic acid leads to clumping of
  • 46. MORPHOLOGY OF CELL INJURY -Adaptive changes are the adjustment made by cell in the response of stress -These changes can be physiological as well as pathological -Adaptive changes are generally related to change in size, shape, or type. -Following are the adaptions cell made in the reponses of stress • Atrophy • Hypertrophy • Hyperplasia • Metaplasia
  • 47. MORPHOLOGY OF CELL INJURY Atrophy is a reduction in cell size and function. • It can be physiological (normal) or pathological (disease-related). • Caused by disuse, denervation, ischemia, malnutrition, hormonal loss, or pressure. • Involves decreased protein synthesis and increased degradation. • Atrophy found in heart, ske;etal muscle, brain.
  • 48. MORPHOLOGY OF CELL INJURY Hypertrophy is an increase in the size of individual cells, leading to an increase in the size of the affected organ or tissue. The number of cells does not increase (that’s hyperplasia). It is occurred due to increased functional demand. It is either physiological or pathological
  • 49. MORPHOLOGY OF CELL INJURY Hyperplasia is an increase in the number of cells in an organ or tissue, leading to an increase in size. Occurs mainly in tissues with cells capable of mitosis (e.g., epithelial and glandular tissues). Often occurs together with hypertrophy. Mechanism of Hyperplasia: Increased demand or hormonal stimulation → growth factors released. Enhanced DNA synthesis and mitosis.
  • 50. MORPHOLOGY OF CELL INJURY Metaplasia is when one type of mature cell in your body changes into another type of mature cell. This usually happens because the new cell type is stronger and can handle things like irritation or injury better. For example, if the cells lining your windpipe get irritated by cigarette smoke, they might change from one kind of cell to another that is tougher and protects better. The good news is, this change can go back to normal if the irritation or stress stops.
  • 51. MORPHOLOGY OF CELL INJURY Dysplasia is when cells in a tissue start to grow abnormally. The cells look different from normal cells — they might be irregular in size, shape, or organization. This is often a response to ongoing irritation or damage. Dysplasia isn’t cancer yet, but if the problem keeps going, these abnormal cells might turn into cancer later. Dysplasia is usually reversible if the irritating factor is removed early.
  • 52. CELLULAR SWELLING •Accumulation of water in the cell •It occurs b’coz of imbalance in between sodium and potassium pump •Cellular swelling is the earliest and most common sign of reversible cell injury. •It happens when a cell takes in too much water, causing it to swell and look bigger under the microscope. Why does it happen? •When a cell is injured, its energy production (ATP) drops. •Without enough ATP, the sodium-potassium pump (Na⁺/K⁺-ATPase) fails. •Sodium (Na⁺) builds up inside the cell.
  • 53. CELLULAR SWELLING •Swollen cells have distended organelles (like mitochondria and ER). •The plasma membrane becomes leaky and can develop blebs. •The cell can still recover if the injury is mild and removed.
  • 54. INTRACELLULAR ACCUMULATION •Intracellular accumulation is simply defined as accumulation of abnormal substances that can temporarily or permanently damage a cell. •It can be occurs due to overproduction, abnormal metabolism •It can be either reversible or irreversible.
  • 55. CALCIFICATION It is defined as accumulation of calcium in body tissues It is normally occurs in the formation of bone but abnormal deposition of calcium can disrupt body’s natural process Calcification can be occur almost in every part of and eventually leads to health problem It occurs due to hypercalcemia,
  • 56. CALCIFICATION •Most of the body's organ functions at a cetrain pH range. •Disable in thes pH range can causes disturbance in functioning. Ideally pH of blood is 7.4 •If the pH of blood falls down 7.4 then it is defined as acidosis. •If the pH of blood goes above 7.4 then it is defined as alkalosis. •Acidosis and alkalosis are of two types: •Respiratory •Metabolic
  • 57. ELECTROLYTE IMBALANCE • Bloodstream contains many chemical that are very essential for normal body functions. Electrolytes are one of them • Calcium, magnesium, sodium, potassium are some examples of electrolytes • Now imbalance in these electrolytes can cause variety of disturbance. • Electrolytes imbalance can become result into vomiting, diarria, sweating, high fever.
  • 59. anaerobic glycolysis: a metabolic process where glucose is broken down in the absence of oxygen, resulting in the production of ATP and lactic acid Cell Swelling and Lysis: Accumulation of sodium within the cell, due to pump failure, can lead to osmosis, causing water to rush into the cell and potentially causing it to swell and rupture. Attached ribosomes synthesize proteins that are transported out of the cell via secretory vesicles The endoplasmic reticulum is involved in the transportation of substances throughout the cell. It plays a primary role in the metabolism of carbohydrates, synthesis of lipids, steroids and proteins. Ribosomes are the protein synthesisers of the cell.
