The aspect of disease that may be genetic or acquired.

A phenomenon when formation and growth of fibrous tissue is stimulated by parenchymal cells creating a fibrosis around the tumor.

Target-like lesions is commonly seen in:

It is the ability of immune system to mold and shape immunologic properties of cell.

It induces secretion of chemokines that recruit other leukocytes.

What cellular adaptation is involved in Barrett esophagus?

When a tumor develops areas of ischemic necrosis, being organized, hyperchromatic and polymorphic, with abnormally large nuclei and mitotic figures, the tumor is said to be:

Condition where colloid or civette bodies are commonly seen

What is the transcription factor that drives changes in gene expression that support anabolic metabolism and cell growth?

It cleaves C3 and C5 complement proteins, directly yielding anaphylatoxins, and release a kinin-like peptide from kininogen.

What bicoehmical pathway is important in physiologic muscle hypertrophy?

Lack of differentiation is called

A type of psoriasis characterized by eruptions of small papules

What do you call the loss of adhesion to the basement membrane?

An iron-binding protein present in specific granules, and major basic protein, a cationic protein of eosinophils, which has limited bactericidal activity but is cytotoxic to many parasites.

Deficiency of what vitamin induces squamous metaplasia in respiratory epithelium?

Placental epithelium serves as origin of this epithelial tumor that is benign.

Exhibits buildup of compacted stratum corneum associated with loss of normal basket weave pattern.

What group of proteins sense death-inducing stimuli and promote apoptosis?

It is produced by the rapid assembly and activation of a multicomponent oxidase, NADPH oxidase (phagocyte oxidase.)

What will cause cellular hypertrophy?

A tumor composed of cells or tissues belonging to more than 1 germ cell layer, sometimes all 3:

Storiform is a characteristic of which skin disorder.

This anti-apoptotic protein plays a role in protecting malignant lymphoid cells.

It is the most efficient bactericidal system of neutrophils.
