General Pathology Cellular and Organ Pathology Disorders of Glycogen Degradation. Pathology of Calcification. Jaroslava Dušková Inst. Pathol. ,1st Med. Faculty, Charles Univ. Prague
Glycogen • linear and branched polymer • cca 60 000 - D-glucose molecules • monoparticles (beta) - muscle • complex particles (alpha) - hepatocyte
EnzymesInvolved in Glycogen Metabolism • g.-synthase - brancher • phophorylase kinase - debrancher • g-6-phosphatase • -glucosidase
Storage Diseases Def.: inborn errors of metabolism (mostly single gene abnormality) leading to an enzyme defect with subsequent accumulation of the substrate (& lack of the product) in tissues or organs„thesaurismoses“
Glycogenosis I – von Gierke E defect - gl-6 - phosphatase Organ damage - liver, kidney
Glycogenosis II – Pompe E -defect - alfa1,4-glycosidase Organ damage - heart
Clear Intracellular Vacuoles& adjunct techniques • accumulations of water neg. • lipides SUDAN, OILRED • polysaccharides PAS, A-PAS
Glycogen water soluble easily lost in long lasting water based fixative solutions
Calcification Def.: depositions of Ca (mostly phosphate salts) in tissues or organs Classification: dystrophic metastatic
Calcification - physiology • Matrix vesicles - osteoblasts- nidus calcification • Non collagen proteins - osteopontin, osteonektin, osteokalcin, Gla protein,sialoprotein • Alkalic phosphatase • Phospholipids • Collagen I • Hydroxyapatite
Pathology Conditions with Calcium Deposits Calcification • dystrophic • metastatic Calcinosis • localized • generalized Chondrocalcinosis-pseudogout
Calcification - Microscopy • Basophilic • Von Kossa - Ag impregnation • Alizarine red + • Tetracyclin fluorescence • Polarized light birefringence
Dystrophic Serum Ca level: normal Tissues/Organs status dystrophic changes (necrosis, scar…, low metab. turnover) Metastatic Serum Ca level: Tissues/Organs status normal, local alcalisation (acid secretion - urine, stomach juice, sweat…) Calcification
Dystrophic Serum Ca level: normal Tissues/Organs status dystrophic changes (necrosis, scar…, low metab. turnover) Metastatic Serum Ca level: Tissues/Organs status normal, local alcalisation (acid secretion - urine, stomach juice, sweat…) Calcification
Ca Salts in the Calcified Foci • Ca phophate Ca3(PO4)2 • Ca diphosphate (Ca2P2O7) • Hydroxyapatite (Ca5 (PO4)3.OH
Pathology Conditions with Calcium Deposits Calcification • dystrophic • metastatic Calcinosis • localized • generalized Chondrocalcinosis-pseudogout
Dystrophic Calcification • Frequent • necrotic tissue • connective tissue • vessels • kalkospherites • intracellular calcifiction of lysosoms Less frequent tendon, cartilage, elastics, bas. membranes
Calcinosis Forms - localised generalised Localisation– connective tissue, muscles
Chondrocalcinosis crystal deposit disease (pseudogout) pyrophophate and hydroxyapatite deposits localisation– synovial membrane, cortilage, bone
Calcium pyrophosphate deposition disease(Chondrocalcinosis, pseudogout) • Clinic: may simulate different diseases • Arthroscopy - chalky white deposits • Tophaceus deposits with crystalline aggregates • Crystals stain with von Kossa technique • Foreign body type multinucleated giant cell reaction • Deposits are in synovium, cartilage, bone
