Proteins
Figure 1-2 The Nucleus. The nucleus is composed of a double membrane, called a nuclear envelope, that encloses the fluid-filled interior, called nucleoplasm. The chromosomes are suspended in the nucleoplasm (here shown much larger than real size to show the tightly packed DNA strands). Swelling at one or more points of the chromosome, shown in A, occurs at a nucleolus where genes are being copied into RNA. The nuclear envelope is studded with pores. B, The pores are visible as dimples in this freeze etch of a nuclear envelope. C, Histone-folding DNA in chromosomes. B from Raven PH, Johnson GB: Biology, St Louis, 1992, Mosby.

Figure 1-3 Amphipathic Molecule. In cellular membranes, amphipathic phospholipid molecules are organized in a bimolecular layer. The hydrophilic regions of the molecules are located at the membrane surfaces, and the hydrophobic regions are oriented toward the center of the membrane.

Fluid mosaic model
Figure 1-5 Fluid Mosaic Model. Schematic, three-dimensional view of the fluid mosaic model of membrane structure. The lipid bilayer provides the basic structure and serves as a relatively impermeable barrier to most water-soluble molecules. Modified from Thibodeau GA, Patton KT: Anatomy & physiology, ed 6, St Louis, 2007, Mosby.
Cellular Receptors
Figure 1-6 Cellular Receptors. A, Plasma membrane receptor for a ligand (here, a hormone molecule) on the surface of an integral protein. A neurotransmitter can exert its effect on a postsynaptic cell by means of two fundamentally different types of receptor proteins: B, channel-linked receptors, and C, non–channel-linked receptors. Channel-linked receptors are also known as ligand-gated channels.
Cell-to-Cell Adhesions
Extracellular Matrix
Figure 1-7 Extracellular Matrix. Tissues are not just cells but also extracellular space. The extracellular space is an intricate network of macromolecules called the extracellular matrix (ECM). The macromolecules that constitute the ECM are secreted locally (by mostly fibroblasts) and assembled into a meshwork in close association with the surface of the cell that produced them. Two main classes of macromolecules include proteoglycans, which are bound to polysaccharide chains called glycosaminoglycans, and fibrous proteins (e.g., collagen, elastin, fibronectin, and laminin), which have structural and adhesive properties. Together the proteogylcan molecules form a gel-like ground substance in which the fibrous proteins are embedded. The gel permits rapid diffusion of nutrients, metabolites, and hormones between the blood and the tissue cells. Matrix proteins modulate cell-matrix interactions including normal tissue remodeling (which can become abnormal, for example, with chronic inflammation). Disruptions of this balance results in serious diseases such as arthritis, tumor growth, and others. Modified from Kumar V, Abbas A, Fausto N: Robbins and Cotran pathologic basis of disease, ed 7, Philadelphia, 2005, Saunders.
Specialized Cell Junctions
Figure 1-8 Junctional Complex. A, Schematic drawing of a belt desmosome between epithelial cells. This junction, also called the zonula adherens, encircles each of the interacting cells. The spot desmosomes and hemidesmosomes, like the belt desmosomes, are adhering junctions. This tight junction is an impermeable junction that holds cells together but seals them in such a way that molecules cannot leak between them. The gap junction, as a communicating junction, mediates the passage of small molecules from one interacting cell to the other. B, Electron micrograph of desmosomes. From Raven PH, Johnson GB: Biology, St Louis, 1992, Mosby.
Cellular Communication and Signal Transduction
Figure 1-9 Cellular Communication. Three primary ways in which cells communicate with one another.
Figure 1-10 Primary Modes of Chemical Signaling. Five forms of signaling mediated by secreted molecules. Hormones, paracrines, autocrines, neurotransmitters, and neurohormones are all intracellular messengers that accomplish communication between cells. Not all neurotransmitters act in the strictly synaptic mode shown; some act in a paracrine mode as local chemical mediators that influence multiple target cells in the area.
Table 1-3 Classes of Plasma Membrane Receptors
Figure 1-11 Schematic of a Signal Transduction Pathway. Like a telephone receiver that converts an electrical signal into a sound signal, a cell converts an extracellular signal, A, into an intracellular signal, B. C, An extracellular chemical messenger (ligand) bonds to a receptor protein located on the plasma membrane where it is transduced into an intracellular signal. This process initiates a signaling cascade that relays the signal into the cell interior, amplifying and distributing it en route. Steps in the cascade can be modulated by other events in the cell.
Cellular Metabolism
Role of Adenosine Triphosphate
Food and Production of Cellular Energy
Figure 1-12 Three Phases of Catabolism: From Breakdown of Food to Elimination of Waste Products. These reactions produce adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which is used to power other processes in the cell.
Oxidative Phosphorylation
Figure 1-13 Glycolysis. Each of the numbered reactions is catalyzed by a different enzyme. At step 4, a six-carbon sugar is broken down to give two three-carbon sugars, so that the number of molecules at every step after this is doubled. Reactions 5 and 6 are responsible for the net synthesis of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) molecules.
Figure 1-14 What Happens to Pyruvate, the Product of Glycolysis? In the presence of oxygen, pyruvate is oxidized to acetyl CoA and enters the citric acid cycle. In the absence of oxygen, pyruvate instead is reduced, accepting the electrons extracted during glycolysis and carried by reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH). When pyruvate is reduced directly, as it is in muscles, the product is lactic acid. When carbon dioxide (CO2) is first removed from pyruvate and the remainder is reduced, as it is in yeasts, the resulting product is ethanol.
Membrane Transport: Cellular Intake and Output
Movement of Water and Solutes
Passive transport: diffusion, filtration, and osmosis
Diffusion
Figure 1-15 Passive Diffusion of Solute Molecules Across the Plasma Membrane. Oxygen (O2), nitrogen (N2), water (H2O), urea, glycerol, and carbon dioxide (CO2) can diffuse readily down the concentration gradient. Macromolecules are too large to diffuse through pores in the plasma membrane. Ions may be repelled if the pores contain substances with identical charges. If the pores are lined with cations, for example, other cations will have difficulty diffusing because the positive charges will repel one another. Diffusion can still occur, but it occurs more slowly. From Thibodeau GA, Patton KT: Anatomy & physiology, ed 6, St Louis, 2007, Mosby.
Filtration: hydrostatic pressure
Osmosis

Mediated and active transport
Mediated transport
Figure 1-16 Conformational-change Model of Mediated Transport (Facilitated Diffusion). The transporter protein has two states, “ping” and “pong.” In the ping state, sites for molecules of a specific solute are exposed on the outside of the bilayer. In the pong state, the sites are exposed to the inner side of the bilayer.
Figure 1-17 Channel Mode of Mediated Transport (Facilitated Diffusion). A channel protein forms a water-filled pore across the bilayer through which specific ions can diffuse.
Figure 1-18 Mediated Transport. Illustration shows simultaneous movement of a single solute molecule in one direction (uniport), of two different solute molecules in one direction (symport), and of two different solute molecules in opposite directions (antiport).
Figure 1-19 Active Transport and the Sodium-Potassium Pump. Three sodium (Na+) ions bind to sodium-binding sites on the carrier’s inner face. At the same time, an energy-containing adenosine triphosphate (ATP) molecule produced by the cell’s mitochondria binds to the carrier. The ATP breaks apart, transferring its stored energy to the carrier. The carrier then changes shape, releases the three Na+ ions to the outside of the cell, and attracts two potassium (K+) ions to its potassium-binding sites. The carrier then returns to its original shape, releasing the two K+ ions and the remnant of the ATP molecule to the inside of the cell. The carrier is now ready for another pumping cycle. From Thibodeau GA, Patton KT: Anatomy & physiology, ed 6, St Louis, 2007, Mosby.

A, The ligand attaches to its surface receptor (through the bristle coat or clathrin coat) and, through receptor-mediated endocytosis, enters the cell. The ingested material fuses with a lysosome and is processed by hydrolytic lysosomal enzymes. Processed molecules can then be transferred to other cellular components.

Cellular Reproduction: The Cell Cycle
Phases of Mitosis and Cytokinesis
Figure 1-23 Interphase and the Phases of Mitosis. A, The G1/S checkpoint is to “check” for cell size, nutrients, growth factors, and DNA damage. The G0 is the resting state. The G2/M checkpoint checks for cell size and DNA replication. B, The orderly progression through the phases of the cell cycle is regulated by cyclins (so called because levels rise and fall) and cyclin-dependent protein kinases (CdKs) and their inhibitors. When cyclins are complexed with CdKs, it triggers cell cycle events.

Figure 1-24 How Growth Factors Stimulate Cell Proliferation. A, Resting cell. With the absence of growth factors, the retinoblastoma (Rb) protein is not phosphorylated; thus, it holds the gene regulatory proteins in an inactive state. The gene regulatory proteins are required to stimulate the transcription of genes needed for cell proliferation. B, Proliferating cell. Growth factors bind to the cell surface receptors and activate intracellular signaling pathways leading to activation of intracellular proteins. These intracellular proteins phosphorylate and thereby inactivate the Rb protein. The gene regulatory proteins are now free to activate the transcription of genes, leading to cell proliferation.

Composition and structure of DNA
Figure 2-1 Watson-Crick Model of the DNA Molecule. The DNA structure illustrated here is based on that published by James Watson (photograph, left) and Francis Crick (photograph, right) in 1953. Note that each side of the DNA molecule consists of alternating sugar and phosphate groups. Each sugar group is united to the sugar group opposite it by a pair of nitrogenous bases (adenine-thymine or cytosine-guanine). The sequence of these pairs constitutes a genetic code that determines the structure and function of a cell. From Thibodeau GA, Patton KT: Anatomy & physiology, ed 6, St Louis, 2007, Mosby.

Aneuploidy
Figure 2-9 Structure of Chromosomes. A, Human chromosomes 2, 5, and 13. Each is replicated and consists of two chromatids. Chromosome 2 is a metacentric chromosome because the centromere is close to the middle; chromosome 5 is submetacentric because the centromere is set off from the middle; chromosome 13 is acrocentric because the centromere is at or very near the end. B, During mitosis, the centromere divides and the chromosomes move to opposite poles of the cell. At the time of centromere division, the chromatids are designated as chromosomes.

Autosomal Recessive Inheritance
Characteristics of pedigrees
Recurrence risks
Figure 2-22 Epigenetic Modifications. Because DNA is a long molecule, it needs packaging to fit in the tiny nucleus. Packaging involves coiling of the DNA in a “left-handed” spiral around spools, made of four pairs of proteins individually known as histones and collectively as the histone octamer. The entire spool is called a nucleosome (also see Figure 1-2). Nucleosomes are organized into chromatin, the repeating building blocks of a chromosome. Histone modifications are correlated with methylation, are reversible, and occur at multiple sites. Methylation occurs at the 5 position of cytosine and provides a “footprint” or signature as a unique epigenetic alteration (red). When genes are expressed, chromatin is open or active; however, when chromatin is condensed because of methylation and histone modification, genes are inactivated.

Consanguinity
X-Linked Inheritance
X inactivation
Figure 2-25 The X Inactivation Process. The maternal (m) and paternal (p) X chromosomes are both active in the zygote and in early embryonic cells. X inactivation then takes place, resulting in cells having either an active paternal X or an active maternal X. Females are thus X chromosome mosaics, as shown in the tissue sample at the bottom of the page. From Jorde LB et al: Medical genetics, ed 3, updated, St Louis, 2006, Mosby.
Sex determination
Figure 2-26 Distal Short Arms of the X and Y Chromosomes Exchange Material During Meiosis in the Male. The region of the Y chromosome in which this crossover occurs is called the pseudoautosomal region. The SRY gene, which triggers the process leading to male gonadal differentiation, is located just outside the pseudoautosomal region. Occasionally, the crossover occurs on the centrometric side of the SRY gene, causing it to lie on an X chromosome instead of a Y chromosome. An offspring receiving this X chromosome will be an XX male, and an offspring receiving the Y chromosome will be an XY female.

Free Radicals and Reactive Oxygen Species Injury
Figure 3-8 Generation of Reactive Oxygen Species and Antioxidant Mechanisms in Biologic Systems. Mitochondria have four sites of entry for electrons coming into the electron transport system: one for reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) and three for the reduced form of flavin adenine dinucleotide (FADH2). These pathways meet at the small, lipophilic molecule, ubiquinone (coenzyme Q), at the beginning of the common electron transport pathway. Ubiquinone transfers electrons in the inner membrane, ultimately enabling their interaction with oxygen (O2) and hydrogen (H2) to yield water (H2O). In so doing, the transport allows free energy change and the synthesis of one mole of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). With the transport of electrons, free radicals are generated within the mitochondria. Reactive oxygen species ( O2⋅−, H2O2, OH⋅, and nitric oxide [NO]) act as physiologic modulators of some mitochondrial functions but may also cause cell damage. O2 is converted to superoxide ( O2⋅−) by oxidative enzymes in the mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum (ER), plasma membrane, peroxisomes, and cytosol. O2 is converted to H2O2 by superoxide dismutase (SOD) and further to OH⋅ by the Cu/Fe Fenton reaction. Superoxide catalyzes the reduction of Fe++ to Fe+++, thus increasing OH⋅ formation by the Fenton reaction. H2O2 is also derived from oxidases in peroxisomes. The three reactive oxygen species (H2O2, OH⋅, and O2⋅−), cause free radical damage to lipids (peroxidation of the membrane), proteins (ion pump damage), and DNA (impaired protein synthesis). The major antioxidant enzymes include SOD, catalase, and glutathione peroxidase. Data from Dröge W: Physiol Rev 82:47–95, 2002; Buetler TM, Krauskopf A, Ruegg UT: News Physiol Sci 19:120–123, 2004.

Calcium
Figure 3-23 Free Cytosolic Calcium: A Destructive Agent. Normally, calcium is removed from the cytosol by adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-dependent calcium pumps. In normal cells, calcium is bound to buffering proteins, such as calbindin or paralbumin, and is contained in the endoplasmic reticulum and the mitochondria. If there is abnormal permeability of calcium-ion channels, direct damage to membranes, or depletion of ATP (i.e., hypoxic injury), calcium increases in the cytosol. If the free calcium cannot be buffered or pumped out of cells, uncontrolled enzyme activation takes place, causing further damage. Uncontrolled entry of calcium into the cytosol is an important final common pathway in many causes of cell death.

Edema
Figure 4-1 Fluid Movement Between Plasma and Interstitial Space. The movement of fluid between the vascular, interstitial spaces, and the lymphatics is the result of net filtration of fluid across the semipermeable capillary membrane. Capillary hydrostatic pressure is the primary force for fluid movement out of the arteriolar end of the capillary and into the interstitial space. At the venous end, capillary oncotic pressure (from plasma proteins) attracts water back into the vascular space. Interstitial hydrostatic pressure promotes the movement of fluid and proteins in to the lymphatics. Osmotic pressure accounts for the movement of fluid between the interstitial space and the intracellular space. Normally intracellular and extracellular fluid osmotic pressures are equal (280 to 294mOsm) and water is equally distributed between the interstitial and intracellular compartments.
Pathophysiology
Figure 4-2 Examples of Changes in Osmotic Equilibrium Between ECF and ICF. A, Normal ECF and ICF volumes. Intracellular and extracellular fluid osmotic pressures are equal and water is equally distributed between the compartments. B, Extracellular fluid volume excess or sodium deficit. ECF volume excess or sodium deficit decreases the ECF osmotic pressure and water is attracted to the ICF space (see C). C, Fluid movement from the ECF to ICF to reestablish osmotic equilibrium. The intracellular osmotic pressure attracts water from the ECF causing an increase in ICF water volume with a balancing of osmotic forces between the ECF and ICF. The consequence is an increase in ICF volume and cell swelling. D, Extracellular fluid volume deficit or sodium excess. ECF volume deficit increases the ECF osmotic pressure and intracellular water is attracted to the ECF space (see E). E, Fluid movement from the ICF to the ECF to reestablish osmotic equilibrium. Water from the intracellular space has moved to the extracellular space until the osmotic forces are equal. The consequence is a decrease in ICF water volume and cell size.

Figure 5-2 Acute Inflammatory Response.Inflammation is usually initiated by cellular injury and may be complicated by infection. Mast cell degranulation, the activation of three plasma systems, and the release of subcellular components from the damaged cells occur as a consequence. These systems are interdependent, so that induction of one (e.g., mast cell degranulation) can result in the induction of the other two. The result is the development of the characteristic microscopic and clinical hallmarks of inflammation. The figure numbers refer to additional figures in which more detailed information may be found on that portion of the response.
The Mast Cell
Figure 5-3 Degranulation (left) and Synthesis (right) of Biologic Mediators by Mast Cells during Inflammation. Mast cells are filled with darkly staining granules that contain a large number of biologically active substances. Among these are histamine, which is a major initiator of vascular changes, and a variety of chemotactic factors. These substances are released immediately after stimulation of mast cells. Other substances are synthesized in response to mast cell stimulation. These include lipid-based molecules that originate from plasma membrane phospholipids as a result of the action of phospholipase A2. These include platelet-activating factor and a variety of prostaglandins and leukotrienes.

In this scheme some systems are activated by multiple pathways that come together (at C3 for the complement system and factor X for the clotting system). Some of the components of the pathways are activated by being split into two active components (C3 and C5 of the complement system and fibrinogen of the clotting system). The larger of the components usually activates the next component of the pathway (as do C3b and C5b of the complement system). Hageman factor participated in both the clotting and kinin pathways (i.e., activated factor XII [XIIa] helps activate factor X and prekallikrein). Many of the components of each pathway have potent biologic activities (in red colored boxes). Many other components of each pathway are not shown in this drawing but play very important roles in activation of the pathway. FP, Fibrinopeptides.

Phagocytosis
Figure 5-7 Process of Phagocytosis. Phagocytosis is a multistep process that involves diffusion of chemotactic factors from a site of injury. Many additional factors affect the blood vessels and increase adhesion molecules on endothelial cells and neutrophils, resulting in adherence of the neutrophils to the vessel wall (pavementing), retraction of endothelial cells (vascular permeability), and movement of the neutrophils through the opened intercellular junctions (diapedesis) and into the tissue. The cells move up the gradient toward the highest concentration of chemotactic factors (chemotaxis). At the site of injury, neutrophils begin phagocytosis of contaminating bacteria. The actual process of phagocytosis involves several steps (see enlargement): (1) adherence to the bacteria, which is increased by opsonins such as antibody (Ab) and complement component C3b; (2) engulfment of the bacteria by extensions of the neutrophil’s membrane (pseudopods); (3) formation of a phagosome containing the bacterium surrounded by the neutrophil’s plasma membrane; (4) fusion of lysosomes with the vacuole to form a phagolysosome and the production of toxic oxygen molecules (H2O2, hydrogen peroxide; O2−, superoxide); and (5) killing and breakdown of the bacterium.

Chronic Inflammation
Figure 5-11 The Chronic Inflammatory Response. Inflammation usually becomes chronic because of the persistence of an infection, an antigen, or a foreign body in the wound. Chronic inflammation is characterized by the persistence of many of the processes of acute inflammation. In addition, large amounts of neutrophil degranulation and death, the activation of lymphocytes, and the concurrent activation of fibroblasts result in the release of mediators that induce the infiltration of more lymphocytes and monocytes/macrophages and the beginning of wound healing and tissue repair. For more detailed information on each portion of the response, see the figures referred to in this illustration.

The granulomas consist of a central area of amorphous caseous (cheeselike) necrosis that is surrounded by a zone of activated macrophages, in which multinucleate macrophages (Langerhans giant cells) are present. There are outer layers of lymphocytes and fibroblasts. A wall of fibrin is laid down around the granulomas, and the contents eventually breakdown and liquefy.

General Characteristics of Adaptive Immunity
Table 6-1 Clinical Use of Antigen or Antibody
Humoral and Cell-Mediated Immunity
Active and Passive Immunity
Figure 6-1 Overview of the Immune Response. The immune response can be separated into two phases: the generation of clonal diversity and clonal selection. During the generation of clonal diversity, lymphoid stem cells from the bone marrow migrate to the central lymphoid organs (the thymus or regions of the bone marrow) where they undergo a series of cellular divisions and differentiation stages resulting in either immunocompetent T cells from the thymus or immunocompetent B cells from the bone marrow. These cells have never encountered foreign antigen. The immunocompetent cells enter the circulation and migrate to the secondary lymphoid organs (e.g., spleen and lymph nodes), where they take up residence in B and T cell–rich areas (more detail in Figure 6-14). The clonal selection phase is initiated by exposure to foreign antigen. The antigen is usually processed by antigen-presenting cells (APCs) for presentation to helper T cells (Th cells) (more detail in Figures 6-16 and 6-17). The intercellular cooperation among APCs, Th cells, and immunocompetent T and B cells results in a second stage of cellular proliferation and differentiation (more detail in Figures 6-19 and 6-20). Because antigen has “selected” those T and B cells with compatible antigen receptors, only a small population of T and B cells undergo this process at one time. The end result is an active cellular immunity or humoral immunity or both. Cellular immunity is mediated by a population of “effector” T cells that can kill targets (cytotoxic T cells) or regulate the immune response (regulatory T cells), as well as a population of memory T cells that can respond more quickly to a second challenge with the same antigen. Humoral immunity is mediated by a population of soluble proteins (antibodies) produced by plasma cells and by a population of memory B cells that can produce more antibody rapidly to a second challenge with the same antigen.

In A, an antigenic protein may have multiple different epitopes (epitopes 1 and 2) that react with different antibodies. Each sphere represents an amino acid with the red spheres representing epitope 1 and the yellow spheres representing epitope 2. Individual epitopes may consist of 8 or 9 amino acids. In B, a polysaccharide is constructed of a backbone with branched side chains. Each sphere represents an individual carbohydrate with the red spheres representing the carbohydrates that form the epitope. In this example, two identical epitopes are shown that would bind two identical antibodies.

Molecular structure
Figure 6-6 Molecular Structure of an Antibody. A, The typical antibody molecule consists of four chains—two identical light (L) and two identical heavy (H)—held together by intrachain and interchain disulfide linkages. The primary interchain disulfides between heavy chains occur in the hinge region (Hi) and provide flexibility in some classes of antibody. Each heavy chain and light chain is divided into regions that have relatively constant amino acid sequences (green areas) and regions with a variable amino acid sequence (VH, VL). Within the VH and VL regions are three highly variable complementary-determining regions (CDR1, CDR2, CDR3). B, Fragmentation of IgG by limited digestion with the enzyme papain has identified three important portions of the molecule: an Fc and two identical Fab fragments. Both Fab fragments could bind antigen. C, In this molecular model of a typical antibody molecule, the light chains are represented by strands of red spheres (each represents an individual amino acid), and heavy chains are represented by strands of blue spheres. Note that the heavy chain contains sites where carbohydrates are bound. As the chains fold and interact, the six CDRs within a Fab region are placed in close proximity to form the antigen-binding site. C from Thibodeau GA, Patton KT: Anatomy & physiology, ed 6, St Louis, 2007, Mosby.
Antigen binding
Function of antibodies
Figure 6-7 Antigen-Antibody Binding. The specificity of an antibody binding with an antigen is determined by the shape and chemistry of the six complementary-determining regions (CDRs) in the combining site on the variable region of the antibody. This figure indicates two different antibodies (Fab portions of antibody 1 and antibody 2), which have different sets of CDRs and, therefore, different specificities. As indicated, the antigenic determinant that reacts well with antibody 1 is unable to react with antibody 2 because of differences in the antibody- combining site. Fab, Antigen-binding fragment.
Direct effects
Indirect effects
IgE
Figure 6-8 Direct and Indirect Functions of Antibody. Activities of antibodies can be direct (through the action of antibody alone) or indirect (requiring activation of other components of inflammation, usually through the Fc region). Direct means they include neutralization of viruses or bacterial toxins before they bind to receptors on the surface of the host’s cells. Indirect means they include activation of the classical complement pathway through C1 resulting in formation of the membrane-attack complex (MAC) or by increased phagocytosis of bacteria opsonized with antibody and complement components bound to appropriate surface receptors (FcR and C3bR) on the phagocyte.
B cell antigen receptor
Figure 6-9 Immunologic Mechanisms That Activate the Inflammatory Response. Immunologic factors may activate inflammation through three mechanisms: (1) IgE can bind to the surface of a mast cell and, after binding antigen, induce the cell’s degranulation (see Figure 6-9); (2) antigen and antibody can activate the complement system, releasing anaphylatoxins and chemotactic factors, especially C5a that result in mast cell degranulation and neutrophil chemotaxis; and (3) antigen may also react with T lymphocytes, resulting in the production of lymphokines that may contribute to the development of either acute or chronic inflammation.
Secretory immune system

(2) Secreted IgE binds to IgE-specific receptors on the mast cell. (3) Additional soluble parasite antigen cross-links the IgE on the mast cell surface, (4) leading to mast cell degranulation and release of many proinflammatory products, including eosinophil chemotactic factor of anaphylaxis (ECF-A). (5) ECF-A attracts eosinophils from the circulation. (6) The eosinophil attaches to the surface of the parasite and releases potent lysosomal enzymes that damage microorganisms.

T Cell Recognition of a Target Cell
T cell receptor complex
Antigen presentation molecules
Figure 6-12 Antigen-Presenting Molecules. Two sets of molecules are primarily responsible for antigen presentation: MHC class I and MHC class II. The MHC molecules are encoded from the major histocompatibility complex on chromosome 6. This complex also contains genes for several other molecules that participate in the innate or immune responses, including some complement proteins and cytokines, which are referred to as MHC class III molecules. This region contains information for the α chains of three principal class I molecules, called HLA-A, HLA-B, and HLA-C. These will be discussed in more detail in Chapter 7. Each of the MHC class I α chains complex with β2 microglobulin, which is encoded by a gene on chromosome 15. The MHC class I molecules present small peptide antigens (8 or 9 amino acids in length) in a pocket formed by the α1 and α2 domains of the α chain. The conformation of the molecule is stabilized by β2 microglobulin as well as by intrachain disulfide bonds (-S-S-). The α and β chains of class II molecules are also encoded in the MHC region. The principal class II molecules are HLA-DR, HLA-DP, and HLA-DQ. The MHC class II molecules present peptide antigens in a pocket formed by the α1 domain of the α chain and β1 domain of the β chain. Both MHC class I and II molecules are anchored to the plasma membrane by hydrophobic regions on the ends of the α and β chains.

(1) Cytotoxic T (Tc) cells recognized endogenous antigen presented by MHC class I molecules. The Tc cell mobilizes multiple killing mechanisms that induce apoptosis of the target cell. (2) Natural killer (NK) cells identify and kill target cells through receptors that recognize abnormal surface changes. NK cells specifically kill targets that do not express surface MHC class I molecules. (3) Several cells, including macrophages and NK cells, can kill by antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC). IgG antibodies bind to foreign antigen on the target cell, and cells involved in ADCC bind IgG through Fc receptors (FcR) and initiate killing.

Another administration of the antigen induces the secondary response in which IgM is transiently produced and larger amounts of IgG are produced over a longer period of time.
Cellular Interactions in the Immune Response
Antigen processing and presentation
Helper T lymphocytes
Figure 6-16 Antigen Processing. Antigen processing and presentation are required for initiation of most immune responses. Foreign antigen may be either endogenous (cytoplasmic protein) or exogenous (e.g., bacterium). Endogenous antigenic peptides are transported into the endoplasmic reticulum (1) where the MHC molecules are being assembled. In the ER, antigenic peptides bind to the α chains of the MHC class I molecule (2), and the complex is transported to the cell surface (3). The α and β chains of the MHC class II molecules are also being assembled in the endoplasmic reticulum (4), but the antigen-binding site is blocked by a small molecule (invariant chain) to prevent interactions with endogenous antigenic peptides. The MHC class II–invariant chain complex is transported to phagolysosomes (5) where exogenous antigenic fragments have been produced as a result of phagocytosis (6). In the phagolysosomes, the invariant chain is digested and replaced by exogenous antigenic peptides (7), after which the MHC class II–antigen complex is inserted into the cell membrane (8).
Superantigens
Figure 6-17 Development of Th1 and Th2 Cells. Antigen presenting cells (APC) present antigen to a precursor Th cells. (1) An antigen signal is produced by the interaction of the T cell receptor (TCR) and CD4 with antigen presented by MHC class II molecules. (2) Cytokines (particularly IL-1) produced by the APC provide a second signal. (3) In response to these signals, the precursor Th cells begin producing the cytokine IL-2, which binds with the same cell to accelerate differentiation and proliferation. Commitment to a Th1 or Th2 phenotype results from the effects of other cytokines. (4) IL-12 and IFN-γ favor differentiation into the Th1 cell phenotype, whereas (5) IL-4 favors differentiation into the Th2 cell phenotype. (6) The Th1 cell produces cytokines that assist in the differentiation of cytotoxic T (Tc) cells (e.g., TNF-β, IL-2), whereas (7) the Th2 cell produces cytokines that favor B cell differentiation (e.g., IL-4, IL-5, IL-6). (8) Th1 and Th2 cells affect each other through the production of inhibitory cytokines: IFN-γ will inhibit development of Th2 cells, and IL-4 will inhibit the development of Th1 cells.
T cell clonal selection: The cellular immune response
B cell clonal selection: The humoral immune response
Figure 6-18 Superantigens. The T cell receptor (TCR) and major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II molecule are normally held together by processed antigen. Superantigens, such as some bacterial exotoxins, bind directly to the variable region of the TCR-β chain and the MHC class II molecule. Each superantigen activates sets of V-β chains independently of the antigen specificity of the TCR.
Figure 6-19 Tc-Cell Clonal Selection. The immunocompetent Tc cell can react with antigen but cannot yet “kill” target cells. During clonal selection, this cell reacts with antigen presented by MHC class I molecules on the surface of a virally infected or cancerous “abnormal” cell. (1) The antigen–MHC class I complex is recognized simultaneously by the T cell receptor (TCR), which binds to antigen, and CD8, which binds to the MHC class I molecule. (2) A separate signal is provided by cytokines, particularly IL-2 from Th1 cells. (3) In response to these signals, the Tc cell develops into an “effector” Tc cell with the ability to kill abnormal cells.
Figure 6-20 B Cell Clonal Selection. Immunocompetent B cells undergo proliferation and differentiation into antibody-secreting plasma cells. Multiple signals are necessary (1). The B cell itself can directly bind soluble antigen through the B cell receptor (BCR) and act as an antigen processing cell. Antigen is internalized, processed (2), and presented (3) to the TCR on a Th2 cell by MHC class II molecules (4). A cytokine signal is provided by the Th2 cell cytokines (e.g., IL-4) that react with the B cell (5). The B cell differentiates into plasma cells that secrete antibody (6).
Memory cells
Figure 6-21 Activation of a B Cell by a T Cell-Independent Antigen. Molecules containing repeating identical antigenic determinants may interact simultaneously with several receptors on the surface of the B cell and induce the proliferation and production of immunoglobulins. Because Th2 cells do not participate, class switch does not occur and the resultant antibody response is IgM.

Pediatrics & Immune Function
Transport of IgG Across the Syncytiotrophoblast. The human placenta is covered with a specialized multinucleate cell, the syncytiotrophoblast. Transport of maternal IgG across the syncytiotrophoblast and into the fetal circulation is an active process. Maternal IgG binds to Fc receptors on the surface of the syncytiotrophoblast and is internalized by the process of endocytosis. Receptors on the syncytiotrophoblast are specific for the Fc portion of IgG and do not bind other classes of immunoglobulins. Interaction of IgG with Fc receptors protects the antibody from lysosomal digestion during transport of the vacuole across the cell (i.e., transcytosis). On the fetal side of the syncytiotrophoblast, IgG is released by exocytosis (see Chapter 1).
Antibody Levels in Umbilical Cord Blood and in Neonatal Circulation. Early in gestation, maternal IgG begins active transport across the placenta and enters the fetal circulation. At birth, the fetal circulation may contain nearly adult levels of IgG, which is almost exclusively from the maternal source. The fetal immune system has the capacity to produce IgM and small amounts of IgA before birth (not shown). After delivery, maternal IgG is rapidly destroyed and neonatal IgG production increases

Type II: Tissue-specific hypersensitivity reactions
Figure 7-1 Mechanism of Type I, IgE-Mediated Reactions. First exposure to an allergen stimulates B lymphocytes to mature into plasma cells that produce IgE. The IgE is adsorbed to the surface of the mast cell by binding with IgE-specific Fc receptors. When an adequate amount of IgE is bound the mast cell is “sensitized.” During a second exposure, the allergen cross-links the surface-bound IgE and causes degranulation of the mast cell. The initial phase is characterized by vasodilation, vascular leakage, and smooth muscle spasm or glandular secretions, usually within 5 to 30 minutes after exposure to antigen. The late phase occurs 2 to 8 hours later without additional exposure to antigen and results from infiltration of tissues with inflammatory cells, including eosinophils, neutrophils, and basophils. (See Chapter 5 for more details on the role of mast cells in inflammation.)

Clinical Manifestations of Infection
Fever
Figure 7-16 Progression of Measles. The pathogenesis of measles is representative of most viral infections in unimmunized individuals. The virus enters through the oropharynx, from where it infects the regional lymph nodes. After 5 to 7 days, virus enters the blood (viremia) and spreads to the body surfaces (respiratory, gastrointestinal, and urinary tracts, and the skin). The measles virus replicates in these tissues, leading to upper respiratory tract symptoms, with the appearance of red spots with bluish-white specks (Koplik spots) in the oral mucosa and later to an extensive rash involving most parts of the skin. At or near the onset of overt symptoms, the infected individual is shedding virus and is highly infectious to others. Antibodies against the measles virus are primarily responsible for resolving the infection. They are produced within 10 to 11 days but are immediately absorbed by viral particles in the blood so that free antibody is not measurable until about 2 weeks after the initial infection.

Figure 7-21 Life Cycle and Possible Sites of Therapeutic Intervention of Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV). The HIV virion consists of a core of two identical strands of viral RNA encoated in a protein structure with viral proteins gp41 and gp120 on its surface (envelope). HIV infection begins when a virion binds to CD4 and chemokine coreceptors on a susceptible cell and follows the process described here. The provirus may remain latent in the cell’s DNA until it is activated (e.g., by cytokines). The HIV life cycle is susceptible to blockage at several sites (see the text for further information), including entrance inhibitors, reverse transcriptase inhibitors, integrase inhibitors, and protease inhibitors.

Figure 7-23 Typical Progression From HIV Infection to AIDS in Untreated Persons.A, Clinical progression begins within weeks after infection; the person may experience symptoms of acute HIV syndrome. During this early period, the virus progressively infects T cells and other cells and spreads to the lymphoid organs, with a sharp decrease in circulating CD4+ T cells. During a period of clinical latency, the virus replicates and T cell destruction continues, although the person is generally asymptomatic. The individual may develop HIV-related disease (constitutional symptoms)—a variety of symptoms of acute viral infection that do not involve opportunistic infections or malignancies. When the number of CD4+ cells is critically suppressed, the individual becomes susceptible to a variety of opportunistic infections and cancers with a diagnosis of AIDS. The length of time for progression from HIV infection to AIDS may vary considerably from person to person. B, Laboratory tests are changing throughout infection. Antibody and Tc cell (cytotoxic T lymphocytes [CTLs]) levels change during the progression to AIDS. During the initial phase, antibodies against HIV-1 are not yet detectable (window period), but viral products, including proteins and RNA, and infectious virus, may be detectable in the blood a few weeks after infection. Most antibodies against HIV are not detectable in the early phase. During the latent phase of infection, antibody levels against p24 and other viral proteins, as well as HIV-specific CTLs, increase, then remain constant until the development of AIDS.

Table 9-1 Benign vs. Malignant Tumors
Figure 9-1 Progression of Dysplasia to Neoplasm. A sequence of cellular and tissue changes progressing from dysplasia to in situ neoplasia and then to invasive neoplasia is seen often in the development of cancer. In this diagram, as in real life, distinguishing between dysplasia and in situ neoplasia is difficult. Loss of normal tissue architecture signifies development of neoplasia. The in situ neoplasms are most commonly found in the squamous epithelium of the uterine cervix, the epidermis of sun-exposed skin, and colonic and gastric mucosa after long-standing inflammation. The altered cell turnover during inflammation probably allows local environmental factors to cause genetic abnormalities leading to neoplasia. Modified from Stevens A, Lowe J: Pathology: illustrated review in color, ed 2, Edinburgh, 2000, Mosby.

D, Poorly differentiated malignant neoplasm of colon. E, Anaplastic malignant neoplasm of colon. F, Benign neoplasm of smooth muscle. The cells of a benign neoplasm (B) resemble those of the normal epithelium (A) in that they are columnar and have an orderly arrangement. Loss of some degree of differentiation is evident in that the neoplastic cells do not show much mucin vacuolation. The cells of the benign neoplasm of smooth muscle (F) closely resemble normal muscle cells. Cells of the well-differentiated malignant neoplasm (C) have a haphazard arrangement, and although gland lumina (G) are formed, they are architecturally abnormal and irregular. Nuclei vary in shape and size. Cells in the poorly differentiated malignant neoplasm (D) have an even more haphazard arrangement, with poor formation of gland lumina (G). Nuclei show greater variation in shape and size compared with the well-differentiated malignant neoplasm (C). Cells in anaplastic malignant neoplasms (E) bear no relation to the normal epithelium, with no attempt at gland formation. Tremendous variation is found in the size of cells and nuclei, with intense staining (nuclear hyperchromatism) of the latter. Not knowing the site of origin would make it impossible to tell what sort of tumor this was by microscopic appearance alone. Well-differentiated tumors often resemble their cell of origin, as shown in the example of a benign tumor of smooth muscle (F).

The Genetic Basis of Cancer
Cancer Is Caused by Mutations in Genes
Clonal selection
Figure 9-6 Cancer Incidence Increases Markedly With Age. The graph depicts the number of cases of colon cancer diagnosed in women in England and Wales in 1 year. The incidence of cancer increases dramatically with advancing age. This type of data suggests that accumulation of genetic mutations over time increases the risk of developing cancer. The slope of the curve suggests that five to seven mutations must occur before a full-blown cancer develops. Modified from Alberts B et al: Molecular biology of the cell, ed 4, New York, 2002, Garland.
Types of Gene Mutations in Cancer
Alteration of progrowth and antigrowth signals
Figure 9-7 Sequential Acquisition of Genetic Changes. Progression from benign to malignant colon cancer is accompanied by an accumulation of mutations. One of the earliest mutations in colon cancer is loss of the tumor suppressor gene APC. Additional mutations, often in the oncogene ras, and loss of the tumor suppressors DCC and p53 occur as the lesion progresses from a benign polyp to an invasive carcinoma. APC, adenomatosis polyposis coli; DCC, deleted in colon cancer. Modified from Kumar V, Cotran RS, Robbins SL: Basic pathology, ed 6, Philadelphia, 1997, Saunders.
Figure 9-8 Six Hallmarks of Cancer. Most cancers acquire mutations in six distinct areas of cell control during their development. All cancers must acquire the same six hallmark mutations, but their means of doing so varies mechanistically and chronologically. The order in which these capabilities are acquired is variable across different cancers. In some tumors, a particular mutation may confer several capabilities simultaneously, decreasing the number of intermediate mutational steps required for full development. Loss of the p53 tumor-suppressor gene may facilitate angiogenesis and resistance to apoptosis. In other tumors, by comparison, a collaboration of two or more distinct genetic changes may be needed to acquire a given trait. Modified from Hanahan D, Weinbert, RA: The hallmarks of cancer. Cell 100(1):57, 2000.
Figure 9-9 Model for Action of ras Genes. When a normal cell is stimulated through a growth factor receptor, inactive (GDP-bound) ras is activated to a GTP-bound state. Activated ras sends growth signals to the nucleus through cytoplasmic kinases. The mutant ras protein is permanently activated because of its inability to hydrolyze GTP, leading to continual stimulation of the cell without any external trigger.

Telomeres and immortality
Figure 9-11 Control of Replication: Telomeres. Normal cells cannot divide indefinitely. The ends of their chromosomes are capped by telomeres. In the absence of the telomerase enzyme, telomeres get shorter with each division until the cells finally stop dividing. In cancer cells, telomerase is switched on, producing an enzyme that rebuilds the telomeres. Thus, the cancer cell can divide indefinitely.

Chromosome translocations
Figure 9-12 Chromosome Translocations Are Oncogenic in Two Ways. Chromosome translocations can lead to inappropriate activation of an oncogene by fusing the transcriptional control elements of one gene, for example, the immunoglobulin (Ig) heavy chain promoter to the coding sequence for an oncogene, in this example, the c-myc oncogene. This leads to high-level expression of c-myc in B lymphocytes as they make immunoglobulins (antibodies). This type of translocation is found in B cell lymphomas. Chromosome translocations also can fuse two genes right in the middle, leading to synthesis of novel chimeric proteins. The fusion often creates a protein that either has new cancer-promoting properties or has lost the ability to regulate a protein kinase. A novel activated protein tyrosine kinase is created in chronic myeloid leukemia.

The macroscopic appearances of bone metastasis are shown in B, where lesions are seen in vertebrae. Numerous metastases from a neoplasm of the stomach are seen in the brain in C. The liver is the most common site for metastases from tumors in the gastrointestinal tract, as seen in D, which arose from a colonic neoplasm. In E, metastatic tumor has replaced both adrenal glands, as is commonly seen with spread from lung and breast tumors. The lung, F, is the most common site for blood-borne metastases from tumors outside the spinal tract, particularly mesenchymal tumors.

Figure 9-21 Metastatic Nonsmall Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC). This 54-year-old woman had a NSCLC resected from the left upper lobe. Five years later, these studies were obtained. The positron emission tomography (PET) scan using 18fluoro-deoxyglucose shows metastatic lesions in the brain, right shoulder, mediastinal and cervical lymph nodes, as well as the liver, left pelvis, and proximal femur. (Left) PET whole body image. (Right) Representative coronal image from the whole body FDG-PET/CT fused image of the same patient. The fused image consists of the CT image with the metabolic information superimposed in color. The pattern of spread is most likely from the primary tumor to the large mediastinal lymph nodes, followed by lymphatic spread to cervical nodes. Blood-borne spread produced the bone, brain, and liver metastases. Normally, only the heart, brain, and bladder show strong signal in PET scan.

Table 10-2 Relationship of Dietary Factors With Risk of Major Cancers*
Figure 10-3 Energy Balance, Lipid Metabolism, and Insulin Sensitivity and Tumor Development. In obesity, increased release from adipose tissue of free fatty acids (FFA), tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) and resistin, and reduced release of adiponectin lead to insulin resistance and compensatory chronic hyperinsulinemia. Increased insulin levels ultimately lead to decreased liver synthesis and blood levels of insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 1 (IGFBP1) and, theoretically, also decrease IGFBP1 synthesis locally in other tissues. Increased fasting levels of insulin in plasma are also correlated with decreased levels of IGFBP2 in the blood leading to increased levels of bioavailable IGF-1. Insulin and IGF-1 signal through the insulin receptors (IRs) and IGF-1 receptor (IGF1R) to stimulate cellular proliferation and inhibit apoptosis in many tissue types. These effects could promote tumor development. Adapted from Calle EE, Kaaks R: Overweight, obesity and cancer: epidemiological evidence and proposed mechanisms. Nat Rev Cancer 4(8):579–591, 2004.

The Experience of Pain
Neuroanatomy of Pain
Figure 13-1 Transmission of Pain Sensations. The Aδ and C fibers synapse in the laminae of the dorsal horn cross over to the contralateral spinothalamic tract then ascend to synapse in the midbrain through the neospinothalamic and paleospinothalamic tracts. Impulses are then conducted to the sensory cortex.

Theories of Pain
Figure 13-2 Gate Control Theory of Pain. Schematic diagram of the gate control theory of pain mechanism. Large fiber non-nociceptor impulses (i.e., mechanical and thermal) activate inhibitory interneuron in spinal cord dorsal horn and decrease pain transmission (close pain gate). Small fiber impulses block the inhibitory interneuron and promote pain transmission (open pain gate).

Pathogenesis of Fever
Figure 13-5 Production of Fever. When monocytes/macrophages are activated, they secrete endogenous pyrogenic cytokines such as interleukin-1 (IL-1), interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor (TNF) and interferon (IF) which reach the hypothalamic temperature-regulating center. These cytokines promote the synthesis and secretion of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) in the anterior hypothalamus. PGE2 increases the thermostatic set point, and the autonomic nervous system is stimulated, resulting in shivering, muscle contraction, and peripheral vasoconstriction.

It should be noted that the same pathologic condition occurs at more than one site in an upper motor neuron (above right). A few pathologic conditions involve both upper and lower motor neuron structures, as in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, for example. Other lesion sites include myoneural junction and primary muscle, making it possible to classify conditions as neuromuscular and muscular, respectively.

Figure 14-18 Structures Making up Upper Motor Neuron, or Pyramidal, System. Pyramidal system fibers are shown to originate primarily in cells in precentral gyrus of motor cortex; to converge at internal capsule; to descend to form central third of cerebral peduncle; to descend further through pons, where small fibers are given off to cranial nerve motor nuclei along the way; to form pyramids at medulla, where most of the fibers decussate; and then to continue to descend in lateral column of white matter of spinal cord. A few fibers descend without crossing at medulla level (see Figure 12-8).
Figure 14-19 Structures Making up Lower Motor Neuron, Including Motor (Efferent) and Sensory (Afferent) Elements.(Top) Anterior horn cell (in anterior gray column of spinal cord and its axon), terminating in motor end plate as it innervates extrafusal muscle fibers in quadriceps muscle. (Detailed enlargement) Sensory and motor elements of gamma loop system. Gamma efferent fibers shown innervating polar, or end, region of muscle spindle (sensory receptor of skeletal muscle). Contraction of muscle spindle fibers stretches central portion of spindle and causes afferent spindle fiber to transmit impulse centrally to cord. Muscle spindle afferent fibers in turn synapse on anterior horn cell and are transmitted by way of gamma efferent fibers to skeletal (extrafusal) muscle, causing it to contract. Muscle spindle discharge is interrupted by active contraction of extrafusal muscle fibers.

Figure 14-20 Nigrostriatal Disorders Produce the Parkinson Syndrome. Coronal section of the brain shows the basal ganglia. Pathways controlling normal and abnormal motor function are depicted in a portion of the basal ganglia (caudate nucleus), A; they are shown enlarged in B. Dopaminergic synaptic activity is mediated by dopamine. Cholinergic synaptic activity is mediated by acetylcholine. A balance between the two kinds of activity produces normal motor function. A relative excess of cholinergic activity produces akinesia and rigidity. A relative excess of dopaminergic activity produces involuntary movements. Neurons in the caudate nucleus contain gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and possibly control dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra through a feedback pathway.

Figure 14-22 Pathways Disrupted in Dyspraxias. Formulation of the idea of the motor act is thought to originate in the region of the supramarginal gyrus in the inferior left parietal lobe. This area is connected via associational pathways to the left premotor cortex. The left premotor cortex is connected through the corpus callosum to the right premotor and motor areas. An injury that interrupts the pathways between the left supramarginal gyrus and the premotor region produces a dyspraxia that involves the entire body. An injury that disrupts the callosal pathways produces a dyspraxia of the left side of the body only.

Negative-feedback regulation is possible at three levels: target organ (ultrashort feedback), anterior pituitary (short feedback), and hypothalamus (long feedback).

Table 17-3 Types of Hormones, Their Receptors, and Their Mechanisms of Action
Steroid (lipid-soluble) hormone receptors
Figure 17-5 Example of First- and Second-Messenger Mechanisms. A nonsteroid hormone (first messenger) binds to a fixed receptor in the plasma membrane of the target cell (1). The hormone-receptor complex activates the G protein (2). The activated G protein (G) reacts with guanosine triphosphate (GTP), which in turn activates the membrane-bound enzyme adenylyl cyclase (3). Adenylyl cyclase catalyzes the conversion of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) (second messenger) (4). cAMP activates protein kinase A (5). Protein kinases activate specific intracellular enzymes (6). These activated enzymes then influence specific cellular reactions, thus producing the target cell’s response to the hormone (7).

Table 17-4 Hypothalamic Hormones
The anterior pituitary
Figure 17-7 Location and Structure of the Pituitary Gland (Hypophysis). The pituitary gland is located within the sella turcica of the skull’s sphenoid bone and is connected to the hypothalamus by a stalklike infundibulum. The pituitary stalk passes through a gap in the portion of the dura mater that covers the pituitary (the pituitary diaphragm). The inset shows that the pituitary is divided into an anterior portion, the adenohypophysis, and a posterior portion, the neurohypophysis. The adenohypophysis is further subdivided into the pars anterior and pars intermedia. The pars intermedia is almost absent in the adult pituitary. From Thibodeau GA, Patton KT: Anatomy & physiology, ed 6, St Louis, 2007, Mosby.
The posterior pituitary
Antidiuretic hormone
Figure 17-8 Hypophysial Portal System. Neurons in the hypothalamus secrete releasing hormones into veins that carry the releasing hormones directly to the vessels of the adenohypophysis, thus bypassing the normal circulatory route.

Figure 17-14 Insulin Action on Cells. Binding of insulin to its receptor causes autophosphorylation of the receptor, which then itself acts as a tyrosine kinase that phosphorylates insulin receptor substrate 1 (IRS-1). Numerous target enzymes, such as protein kinase B and MAP kinase, are activated, and these enzymes have a multitude of effects on cell function. The glucose transporter, GLUT4, is recruited to the plasma membrane, where it facilitates glucose entry into the cell. The transport of amino acids, potassium, magnesium, and phosphate into the cell is also facilitated. The synthesis of various enzymes is induced or suppressed, and signal molecules that modulate gene expression regulate cell growth. mRNA, Messenger ribonucleic acid; IREs, insulin responsive elements.

Erythropoiesis
Figure 19-10 Role of Erythropoietin in Regulation of Erythropoiesis. Decreased arterial oxygen levels stimulate production of erythropoietin, which in turn stimulates red cell production and expansion of the erythron. The increase in red cells frequently corrects the problem of low oxygen levels (hypoxia). This restoration to normal oxygen levels alerts the kidney to stop producing erythropoietin (negative feedback). Further erythrocyte production is not needed.

Normal destruction of senescent erythrocytes
Figure 19-13 Iron Cycle. Iron (Fe) released from gastrointestinal epithelial cells circulates in the bloodstream associated with its plasma carrier, transferrin. It is delivered to erythroblasts in bone marrow, where most of it is incorporated into hemoglobin. Mature erythrocytes circulate for approximately 120 days, after which they become senescent and are removed by mononuclear phagocyte system (MPS). Macrophages of MPS (mostly in spleen) break down ingested erythrocytes and return iron to the bloodstream directly or after storing it as ferritin or hemosiderin.

Pathophysiology
Figure 20-16 Pathophysiology of Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation (DIC). DIC is initiated by exposure of tissue factor (TF) after vessel damage, on tumor cells, or on the surface of endothelial cells or monocytes after exposure to cytokines, some of which may be produced by cytokines. TF reacts with and activates factor VII to produce a TF-VIIa complex, which can directly activate clotting factors IX and X. Activated factor IX (IXa) can interact with factors VIIIa and X to activate factor X to Xa. Factor Xa complexes with factor Va and prothrombin (PT) to form the prothrombinase complex that produces thrombin, which in turn activates fibrinogen to fibrin. Fibrin polymerizes to form clots. In DIC, natural regulators of the clotting system (tissue factor pathway inhibitor [TFPI], antithrombin-III [AT-III], and protein C [Prot C]) are decreased resulting in increased thrombin formation. Clots are normally broken down by plasmin, which is produced from plasminogen and degrades fibrin into fibrin degradation products (FDPs). In DIC, fibrinolysis is prevented by high levels of plasminogen-activator inhibitor type 1 (PAI-1), which inhibits the production of plasmin. The summation of these changes is greatly increased deposition of fibrin clots in the vessels and thrombosis.

C, During a subsequent pregnancy with an Rh-positive fetus, Rh-positive erythrocytes cross the placenta, enter the maternal circulation, and stimulate the mother to produce antibodies against the Rh antigen. The Rh antibodies from the mother cross the placenta, using agglutination and hemolysis of fetal erythrocytes, and HDN develops.

When an action potential reaches the muscle cell, the T tubules carry the action potential deep into the sarcoplasm. The action potential causes the sarcoplasmic reticulum to release the store of calcium ions. B, In resting muscle the myosin binding sites are covered by troponin and tropomyosin. The calcium ions released into the sarcoplasm as a result of action potential bind to the troponin. C, This binding causes the tropomyosin and troponin to move out of the way of the myosin binding sites, leaving the myosin heads free to bind to the actin microfilament. ATP, Adenosine triphosphate.

Calcium and excitation-contraction coupling
Figure 22-15 Cross-Bridge Theory of Muscle Contraction.A, Each myosin cross-bridge in the thick filament moves into a resting position after an adenosine triphosphate (ATP) molecule binds and transfers its energy. B, Calcium ions released from the sarcoplasmic reticulum bind to troponin in the thin filament, allowing tropomyosin to shift from its position blocking the active sites of actin molecules. C, Each myosin cross-bridge then binds to an active site on a thin filament, displacing the remnants of ATP hydrolysis—adenosine diphosphate (ADP) and inorganic phosphate (Pi). D, The release of stored energy from step A provides the force needed for each cross-bridge to move back to its original position, pulling actin along with it. Each cross-bridge will remain bound to actin until another ATP molecule binds to it and pulls it back into its resting position, A.

Angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) in the lung catalyzes the formation of angiotensin II from angiotensin I and destroys the potent vasodilator, bradykinin. Further cleavage generates the angiotensins III and IV. The reddish shading shows the organs affected by angiotensin II, including brain, heart, adrenals, kidney, and the kidney’s efferent arterioles.

Figure 23-3 Factors that Cause a Shift in the Pressure-Natriuresis Relationship. Numerous factors have been implicated in the pathogenesis of sodium retention in individuals with hypertension. These factors cause less renal excretion of salt than would normally occur with increased blood pressure. This is called a shift in the pressure-natriuresis relationship and is believed to be a central process in the pathogenesis of primary hypertension.

Numerous genetic vulnerabilities have been linked to hypertension and these, in combination with environmental risks, cause neurohumoral dysfunction (sympathetic nervous system [SNS], renin-angiotensin-aldosterone [RAA] system, adducin, and natriuretic hormones) and promote inflammation and insulin resistance. Insulin resistance and neurohumoral dysfunction contribute to sustained systemic vasoconstriction and increased peripheral resistance. Inflammation contributes to renal dysfunction, which, in combination with the neurohumoral alterations, results in renal salt and water retention and increased blood volume. Increased peripheral resistance and increased blood volume are two primary causes of sustained hypertension.

Pathophysiology
Figure 23-10 Endothelium Regulation of Vasomotion (Constriction and Dilation) and Platelet Aggregation. With injury, the endothelium loses its normal ability to decrease clot formation (antithrombotic) and maintain vasodilation. Injury results in platelet aggregation with increases in thromboxane A2 (which aspirin inhibits) and the release of serotonin and endothelin causing vasoconstriction, a decrease in blood flow, and ischemia. Sympathetic nerve activation causes vasoconstriction with the release of epinephrine. Endothelin is a potent amino acid peptide. The endothelium also converts angiotensin I into angiotensin II by the membrane-bound angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE). Angiotensin II plays an important role in the pathophysiology of hypertension, atherosclerosis, myocardial infarction, and left heart failure (congestive heart failure) (see text under the heading for each). Modified from Stern S, editor: Silent myocardial ischemia, St Louis, 1998, Mosby.
Figure 23-11 Factors That Cause Endothelium-Dependent Vasodilation. Several pharmacologic and physiologic factors stimulate the release of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) that results in the release of nitric oxide (NO). These factors include norepinephrine, acetylcholine, bradykinin, substance P, angiotensin II, thrombin, vasopressin, ATP, 5-HT, and ADP. In addition, the continuous normal production of NO can be increased by physiologic events including shear stress (on the vessel walls) and movement of platelets. Nitric oxide leads to relaxation of the smooth muscle cells resulting in vasodilation. Prostacyclin (PGI2) also causes relaxation of the smooth muscle cells and inhibits platelet aggregation downstream. Modified from Stern S, editor: Silent myocardial ischemia, St Louis, 1998, Mosby.
Clinical Manifestations
Figure 23-12 Low-density Lipoprotein Oxidation. Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) enters the arterial intima through an intact endothelium. In hypercholesterolemia, the influx of LDL exceeds the eliminating capacity and an extracellular pool of LDL is formed. This is enhanced by association of LDL with the extracellular matrix. Intimal LDL is oxidized through the actin of free oxygen radicals formed by enzymatic or nonenzymatic reactions. This generates proinflammatory lipids that induce endothelial expression of the adhesion molecule, vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 activate complement and stimulate chemokine secretion. All of these factors cause adhesion and entry of mononuclear leukocytes, particularly monocytes and T lymphocytes. Monocytes differentiate into macrophages. Macrophages up-regulate and internalize oxidized LDL and transform into foam cells. Macrophage uptake of oxidized LDL also leads to presentation of fragments of it to antigen-specific T cells. This induces an autoimmune reaction that leads to production of proinflammatory cytokines. Such cytokines include interferon-γ, tumor necrosis factor-α, and interleukin-1, which act on endothelial cells to stimulate expression of adhesion molecules and procoagulant activity; on macrophages to activate proteases, endocytosis, nitric oxide (NO), and cytokines; and on smooth muscle cells (SMCs) to include NO production and inhibit growth, collagen, and actin expression.

Acute rheumatic fever and rheumatic heart disease
Pathophysiology
Figure 23-33 Pathogenesis and Structural Alterations of Acute Rheumatic Heart Disease. Beginning usually with a sore throat, rheumatic fever can develop only as a sequel to pharyngeal infection by group A β-hemolytic streptococcus. Suspected as a hypersensitivity reaction, it is proposed that antibodies directed against the M proteins of certain strains of streptococci cross-react with tissue glycoproteins in the heart, joints, and other tissues. The exact nature of cross-reacting antigens has been difficult to define, but it appears that the streptococcal infection causes an autoimmune response against self-antigens. Inflammatory lesions are found in various sites; the most distinctive within the heart are called Aschoff bodies. The chronic sequelae result from progressive fibrosis because of healing of the inflammatory lesions and the changes induced by valvular deformities.

The adrenal gland releases catecholamines (e.g., mostly epinephrine, some norepinephrine), causing vasoconstriction and increases in contractility and heart rate. These adaptive mechanisms, however, increase myocardial demands for oxygen and nutrients. These demands further strain the heart, which can no longer pump an adequate volume, resulting in shock and impaired metabolism. SVR, Systemic vascular resistance.

Figure 25-6 Section Through the Alveolar Septum (Gas-Exchange Membrane). Inset shows a magnified view of the respiratory membrane composed of the alveolar wall (fluid coating, epithelial cells, basement membrane), interstitial fluid, and wall of a pulmonary capillary (basement membrane, endothelial cells). The gases CO2 (carbon dioxide) and O2 (oxygen) diffuse across the respiratory membrane.
Chest Wall and Pleura
Figure 25-7 Thoracic (Chest) Cavity and Related Structures. The thoracic (chest) cavity is divided into three subdivisions (left and right pleural divisions and mediastinum) by a partition formed by a serous membrane called the pleura. From Thibodeau GA, Patton KT: Anatomy & physiology, ed 3, St Louis, 1996, Mosby.
Function of the Pulmonary System
Ventilation
Figure 25-8 Functional Components of the Respiratory System. The central nervous system responds to neurochemical stimulation of ventilation and sends signals to the chest wall musculature. The response of the respiratory system to these impulses is influenced by several factors that impact the mechanisms of breathing and, therefore, affect the adequacy of ventilation. Gas transport between the alveoli and pulmonary capillary blood depends on a variety of physical and chemical activities. Finally, the control of the pulmonary circulation plays a role in the appropriate distribution of blood flow.
Quick Check 25-2
Neurochemical Control of Ventilation
Lung receptors
Figure 25-9 Spirogram. During normal, quiet respirations, the atmosphere and lungs exchange about 500ml of air (VT). With a forcible inspiration, about 3300ml more air can be inhaled (IRV). After a normal inspiration and normal expiration, approximately 1000ml more air can be forcibly expired (ERV). Vital capacity (VC) is the amount of air that can be forcibly expired after a maximal inspiration and indicates, therefore, the largest amount of air that can enter and leave the lungs during respiration. Residual volume (RV) is the air that remains trapped in the alveoli. From Thibodeau GA, Patton KT: Anatomy & physiology, ed 5, St Louis, 2003, Mosby.

Elastic properties of the lung and chest wall
Figure 25-12 Interaction of Forces During Inspiration and Expiration.A, Outward recoil of the chest wall equals inward recoil of the lungs at the end of expiration. B, During inspiration, contraction of respiratory muscles, assisted by chest wall recoil, overcomes the tendency of lungs to recoil. C, At the end of inspiration, respiratory muscle contraction maintains lung expansion. D, During expiration, respiratory muscles relax, allowing elastic recoil of the lungs to deflate the lungs.

C, If there are different gases in the space, each gas exerts a partial pressure: here the partial pressure of nitrogen (N2) is 20, that of oxygen (O2) is 6, and total pressure is 26.

Oxygen transport
Diffusion across the alveolocapillary membrane
Figure 25-15 Gravity and Alveolar Pressure. Effects of gravity and alveolar pressure on pulmonary blood flow in the three lung zones. In zone I, alveolar pressure (PA) is greater than arterial and venous pressure, and no blood flow occurs. In zone II, arterial pressure (Pa) exceeds alveolar pressure, but alveolar pressure exceeds venous pressure (PV). Blood flow occurs in this zone, but alveolar pressure compresses the venules (venous ends of the capillaries). In zone III, both arterial and venous pressures are greater than alveolar pressure and blood flow fluctuates depending on the difference between arterial and venous pressure.
Determinants of arterial oxygenation
Oxyhemoglobin association and dissociation
Figure 25-16 Partial Pressure of Respiratory Gases in Normal Respiration. The numbers shown are average values near sea level. The values of PO2, PCO2, and PN2 fluctuate from breath to breath. Modified from Thompson JM et al: Mosby’s clinical nursing, ed 5, St Louis, 2002, Mosby.
Carbon dioxide transport
Figure 25-17 Oxyhemoglobin Dissociation Curve. The horizontal or flat segment of the curve at the top of the graph is the arterial or association portion, or that part of the curve where oxygen is bound to hemoglobin and occurs in the lungs. This portion of the curve is flat because partial pressure changes of oxygen between 60 and 100mm Hg do not significantly alter the percentage saturation of hemoglobin with oxygen and allow adequate hemoglobin saturation at a variety of altitudes. If the relationship between SaO2 and PaO2 were linear (in a downward sloping straight line) instead of flat between 60 and 100mm Hg, there would be inadequate saturation of hemoglobin with oxygen. The steep part of the oxyhemoglobin dissociation curve represents the rapid dissociation of oxygen from hemoglobin that occurs in the tissues. During this phase there is rapid diffusion of oxygen from the blood into tissue cells. The P50 is the PaO2 at which hemoglobin is 50% saturated, normally 26.6mm Hg. A lower than normal P50 represents increased affinity of hemoglobin for O2; a high P50 is seen with decreased affinity. Note that variation from the normal is associated with decreased (low P50) or increased (high P50) availability of O2 to tissues (dotted lines). The shaded area shows the entire oxyhemoglobin dissociation curve under the same circumstances. 2,3-DPG, 2,3-Diphosphoglycerate.

Figure 27-2 Listening Can Help Locate the Site of Airway Obstruction. A loud, gasping snore suggests enlarged tonsils or adenoids. In inspiratory stridor, the airway is compromised at the level of the supraglottic larynx, vocal cords, subglottic region, or upper trachea. Expiratory stridor results from a narrowing or collapse in the trachea or bronchi. Airway noise during both inspiration and expiration often represents a fixed obstruction of the vocal cords or subglottic space. Hoarseness or a weak cry is a by-product of obstruction at the vocal cords.

Mast cells degranulate (2) and release mediators such as histamine, leukotrienes, prostaglandin D2, platelet activating factor, and others. Acute inflammation opens intercellular tight junctions, allowing allergen to penetrate and activate submucosal mast cells. Secreted mediators (3) induce active bronchospasm, edema, and mucus secretion. Inflammatory responses are set in motion by chemotactic factors and up-regulation of adhesion molecules (not shown). At the same time, as shown on the left, antigen may be received by dendritic cells and later present it, either in regional lymph nodes to naïve (Tho) T-lymphocytes or locally to memory Th2 cells in the airway mucosa (see B). B, In the late asthmatic response, there are areas of epithelial damage caused at least in part by toxicity of eosinophil products (major basic protein, eosinophilic cationic protein, eosinophil-derived neurotoxin, and eosinophil peroxidase). Many inflammatory cells are recruited by chemokines and up-regulation of vascular cell adhesion molecules. Local T-lymphocytes display a predominant Th2 cytokine profile. They produce IL-4 and IL-13, which promote switching of B cells to favor IgE production, and IL-3, IL-5, and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor, which encourage eosinophil differentiation and survival.

Neural Regulation of Renal Blood Flow
Hormonal Regulation of Renal Blood Flow
Figure 28-9 Cooperative Roles of Antidiuretic Hormone (ADH) and Aldosterone in Regulating Urine and Plasma Volume. The drop in blood pressure that accompanies loss of fluid from the internal environment triggers the hypothalamus to rapidly release ADH from the posterior pituitary gland. ADH increases water reabsorption by the kidney by increasing water permeability of the distal tubules and collecting ducts. The drop in blood pressure is also detected by each nephron’s juxtaglomerular apparatus, which responds by secreting renin. Renin triggers the formation of angiotensin II, which stimulates release of aldosterone from the adrenal cortex. Aldosterone then slowly boosts water reabsorption by the kidneys by increasing reabsorption of Na+. Because angiotensin II also stimulates secretion of ADH, it serves as an additional link between the ADH and aldosterone mechanisms.

Hormonal factors
Figure 32-34 Local Biosynthesis of Estrogens. Three main enzyme complexes (yellow) involved in estrogen formation in breast tissue, including aromatase, sulfatase, and 17β-estradiol hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (HSD). Thus, despite low levels of circulating estrogens in postmenopausal women with breast cancer, the tissue levels are several-fold higher than these in plasma, suggesting tumor accumulation of these estrogens. Data suggest that most abundant is sulfatase in both premenopausal and postmenopausal women with breast cancer. Numerous agents can block the aromatase action, exploration of progesterone, and various progestins to inhibit sulfatase and 17β-HSD or stimulate sulfotransferase (i.e., breast cancer cells cannot inactivate estrogens because they lack sulfotransferase) may provide new possibilities for treatment.

Figure 32-35 Formation, Metabolism, and DNA Adducts of Estrogen. Catechol estrogens are the major metabolites of E1 and E2. If these metabolites are oxidized to the electrophilic (CE-Q), they may react with DNA. The carcinogenic 4-OHE1 (E2) are oxidized to E1 (E2-3,4-Q), which reacts with DNA to form depurinating adducts. These adducts are complexes that form when a chemical (e.g., estrogen metabolites) binds to DNA and damages DNA. These adducts generate the damaged sites—known as apurinic sites—that may lead to misrepair and cancer-initiating pathways. Activating enzymes and depurinating adducts are in purple.

The Gastrointestinal Tract
Mouth and Esophagus
Figure 33-1 Structure and Function of the Digestive System. Digestion begins in the mouth with chewing, which breaks down food mechanically and mixes it with saliva. Swallowing propels chewed food through the esophagus to the stomach, where acids and stomach motility liquefy it further. Next the liquefied food enters the small intestine, where secretions of the intestinal walls, liver, gallbladder, and pancreas digest it into absorbable nutrients. Nutrients are absorbed through intestinal walls, and unabsorbed wastes enter the large intestine (colon), where fluids are removed. Solid wastes then enter the rectum and leave the body through the anus. From Thibodeau GA, Patton KT:Anatomy & physiology, ed 6, St Louis, 2007, Mosby.
Salivation
Swallowing
Figure 33-2 Wall of the Gastrointestinal Tract. The wall of the gastrointestinal tract is made up of four layers with a network of nerves between the layers. This generalized diagram shows a segment of the gastrointestinal tract. Note that the serosa is continuous with a fold of serous membrane called amesentery. Note also that digestive glands may empty their products into the lumen of the gastrointestinal tract by way of ducts. From Thibodeau GA, Patton KT:Anatomy & physiology, ed 6, St Louis, 2007, Mosby.
Figure 33-3 Salivary Glands. From Thibodeau GA, Patton KT:Anatomy & physiology, ed 6, St Louis, 2007, Mosby.
Figure 33-4 Salivary Electrolyte Concentrations and Flow Rate. Changes in concentration of sodium (Na+), potassium (K+), chloride (Cl−), and bicarbonate () HCO3−increases in flow rate of saliva.Green line, sodium;orange line, bicarbonate;red line, chloride;blue line, potassium. At low rates of salivary flow (i.e., between meals), sodium, chloride, and bicarbonate are reabsorbed in the collecting ducts of the salivary glands, and the saliva contains fewer of these electrolytes (i.e., is more hypotonic). At higher flow rates (i.e., stimulated by food), reabsorption decreases and saliva is hypertonic. By this mechanism, sodium, chloride, and bicarbonate are recycled until they are released to help with digestion and absorption.

Figure 36-5 Bone Remodeling. In the remodeling sequence, bone sections are removed by bone-resorbing cells (osteoclasts) and replaced with a new section laid down by bone-forming cells (osteoblasts). The cells work in response to signals generated in that environment. Only the multinucleated osteoclastic cells mediate the first phase of remodeling. They are activated, scoop out bone (A), and resorb it; then the work of the osteoblasts begins (B). They form new bone that replaces bone removed by the resorption process (C). The sequence takes 4 to 5 months. D, Micrograph of active bone remodeling seen in the settings of primary or secondary hyperparathyroidism.

RANKL, receptor activator of nuclear factor κβ ligand, a cytokine and part of the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) family, expression and OPG, a glycoprotein receptor antagonist, are modulated by various cytokines, hormones, drugs, and mechanical strains (see inserts). In bone, RANKL is expressed by both stromal cells and osteoblasts. RANKL stimulates the receptor RANK on osteoclast precursor cells and mature osteoclasts and activates intracellular signaling pathways to promote osteoclast differentiation and activation, as well as cytoskeletal reorganization and survival (PKB/Akt pathway) that increases resorption and bone loss. OPG, secreted by stromal cells and osteoblasts, acts as a “decoy” receptor and blocks RANKL binding to and activating RANK.

Figure 37-20 Emerging Model of Pathogenesis of Rheumatoid Arthritis. Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disease of a genetically susceptible host triggered by an unknown antigenic agent. Chronic autoimmune reaction with activation of CD4+ helper T cells and possibly other lymphocytes and the local release of inflammatory cytokines and mediators that eventually destroys the joint. T cells stimulate cells in the joint to produce cytokines that are key mediators of synovial damage. Apparently, immune complex deposition also plays a role. Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) and interleukin-1 (IL-1), as well as some other cytokines, stimulate synovial cells to proliferate and produce other mediators of inflammation, such as prostaglandins (PGE2) matrix metalloproteinases, and enzymes that all contribute to destruction of cartilage. Activated T cells and synovial fibroblasts also produce receptor activator of nuclear factor κβ ligand (RANKL), which activates the osteoclasts and promotes bone destruction. Pannus is a mass of synovium and synovial stroma with inflammatory cells, granulation tissue, and fibroblasts that grows over the articular surface and causes its destruction.
