Mоdule Objective 2:  Nоte-tаking guide & textbоok  -- (TIP аlwаys summarize the patho of selected disease in 1-2 phrases): Matching question Snake venom often contains enzymes and toxins that disrupt cell membranes, trigger inflammation, and cause tissue necrosis. Air pollutants like particulate matter and ozone generate reactive oxygen species, leading to oxidative stress and chronic inflammation. Ionizing radiation causes direct DNA damage, leading to mutations, apoptosis, or impaired cell division. Rapid decompression leads to nitrogen bubble formation in tissues and blood, causing ischemia and cellular injury. Child trapped in fridge, brought to the ER - Hypoxia from asphyxiation leads to ATP depletion, disrupting calcium homeostasis. Elevated intracellular calcium damages mitochondria and activates enzymes that degrade cellular components. Frailty is a complex clinical syndrome with multi-system inflammation, oxidative stress, malnutrition, decreased physical activity, and muscle apoptosis. High altitude causes hypoxic injury. This hypoxia causes shunting of blood from the periphery to vital organs including the lungs and results in pulmonary hypertension. Lead causes damage within the cell by interfering with the intracellular action of calcium. Learning Activities, Lecture, and textbook:  Beta-agonists can stimulate beta-1 receptors in the heart and skeletal muscle, leading to increased heart rate and tremors, especially at higher doses or with systemic absorption. Beta-2 agonists bind to receptors on bronchial smooth muscle, activating a G-protein–coupled pathway that increases cAMP, resulting in bronchodilation. Hypoxia impairs oxidative phosphorylation, forcing cells to rely on anaerobic glycolysis, which produces less ATP and leads to acidosis due to lactic acid buildup. ATP is required for active transport mechanisms like the Na⁺/K⁺ pump. Without ATP, ion gradients collapse, leading to water influx and cell swelling. Reperfusion restores oxygen, but this can lead to the formation of ROS, which damage lipids, proteins, and DNA, contributing to secondary cellular injury. Cooling reduces cellular metabolic demand, stabilizes membranes, and limits ROS generation, helping to minimize further injury after hypoxia. During ischemia, oxygen deprivation limits ATP production, which impairs the Na⁺/K⁺ ATPase pump. This disrupts ion gradients, particularly potassium and sodium, leading to membrane depolarization and increased risk of arrhythmias. Alcohol is metabolized in the liver to acetaldehyde, a toxic compound that promotes oxidative stress, lipid peroxidation, and inflammation, leading to cellular injury.  Alcohol directly damages gastric epithelial cells, reduces mucus production, and increases vulnerability to acid, leading to ulcer formation.

Mоdule Objective 3: DNA is а dоuble helix cоmposed of а sugаr-phosphate backbone and nitrogenous bases (A, T, C, G). (TIP: start with your textbook summary -- it's a great refresher, and this was stated #2 on the list, in your Chapter 3 textbook summary & is something you learned in high school and undergraduate days as well)  mRNA carries a portion of the DNA template. Module Objective 4:  Liver enzymes (AST, ALT, bilirubin) assess hepatocyte injury, while cardiac enzymes (troponin, CK-MB) help evaluate myocardial damage following infarction. Septic shock, respiratory failure, and advanced cirrhosis would lead to hypoxia and elevated lactic acid. Lead poisoning does not lead to acute elevation of lactic acid. Children exposed to lead in the home are at increased risk of damage to the brain and nervous system, slowed growth and development, learning and behavior problems, and hearing and speech problems. Calcium scoring -- dystrophic calcification (accumulation of calcium salts) is always a sign of pathologic change because it occurs only in injured or dead cells.  Kidney and liver function tests help assess organ recovery after hypoxic injury, as these organs are highly sensitive to oxygen deprivation Module Objective 5 & 6:  Genetic variants in ALDH, especially common in certain ethnic groups (e.g., East Asians), reduce the enzyme's ability to metabolize acetaldehyde, a toxic intermediate.  Cyclin-dependent kinase should stop the cellular cycle and prevent cancer. Anti-oxidants neutralize reactive oxygen species (ROS). Antioxidants help prevent oxidative damage to DNA, including strand breaks that can lead to mutations and cancer.
