Question 1
Question
Atheroma starts as fatty and cellular infiltration of the endothelium. Later becomes larger, [blank_start]__________[blank_end] and [blank_start]__________[blank_end] and may block 80% of the XS of parts of the coronary arteries. (put them in alphabetic order)
Answer
-
Calcified
-
Fibrosed
Question 2
Question
What’s responsible for the drastically reduced force output in EARLY ischaemic failure?
Answer
-
Changes in pH
-
Changes in Pi
-
Failure of excitation-contaction coupling
-
Low ATP
Question 3
Question
True or false: ROS = Reactive Oxygen Species.
Answer
- True
- False
Question 4
Question
Why does early reperfusion cause complete recovery whereas late reperfusion does not?
Answer
-
On reperfusion damage mitochondria produce Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) from O2, which damage membrane and contractile proteins
-
Coupled exchanger theory causes Ca2+ overload which activates Ca2+-activated proteases and causes cell damage
-
Both of the above
-
[none of the above]
Question 5
Question
True or false: ROS can cause damage through protein modification whereby –SH groups are oxidised into –S-S- groups.
Answer
- True
- False
Question 6
Question
True or false: ROS can cause damage through protein modification whereby –S-S- groups are oxidised into –SH groups.
Answer

Mitochondrial Permeability Transition Pore
-
Modification of Protein Transition Pore
-
Mitochondrial Pore Transition Permeability
-

Question 8
Question
When the MPTP opens, Oxidative phosphorylation [blank_start]__________[blank_end], mitochondrial contents leak out, and the cell will eventually die by necrosis.
Answer
-
Stops
-
Starts
-
Increases
