cause of disease
Pathogenesis
mechanism of disease
hypertrophy
Cells/organs increase in size due to increased workload on cells that can't divide.
Hyperplasia
increase in number of cells due to increased workload on cells that can divide.
atrophy
cell shrink by loss of substance when resources and workload are low.
Metaplasia
reversible replacement of one mature cell type by another less mature cell type
Dysplasia
abnormal development or growth of cells, tissues, or organs
Exudate
fluid that accumulates in a wound; may contain serum, cellular debris, bacteria, and
white blood cells
Transudate

, edema

granulation tissue

that fill an open wound when it starts to heal
Organization (in repair)

humoral immune response
The branch of acquired immunity that involves the activation of B cells and that leads to
the production of antibodies, which defend against bacteria and viruses in body fluids.
cell-mediated immune response
The branch of acquired immunity that involves the activation of cytotoxic T cells, which
defend against infected cells.
Antigen
a toxin or other foreign substance that induces an immune response in the body,
especially the production of antibodies.
Primary lymphoid tissue
bone marrow and thymus- where cells differentiate and mature into lymphocytes
Secondary Lymphoid Tissue
-lymph nodes, spleen, and MALT
-adaptive immune responses develop here
