This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: femalecancer, Primary: inherited alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency leads to abnormal release of proteolytic enzymes, or secondary: environmental irritants lead to abnormal release of proteolytic enzymes enzymatic digestion of bronchiolar septa, elastic tissue, and capillary beds, cancer( Adeno carcinoma In lung) One of a large group of diseases that are marked by abnormal cell growth caused by damage to the DNA of cells Incedence/Prevalence American cancer Societyestimates 30,350 death in 2005, Increased residual air volume and decreased caliber of the bronchioles airtrapping during each inspiration leads to coughing. Hyperexpansion of the chest and increased workoad of respiratory muscles, cancer( Adeno carcinoma In lung) One of a large group of diseases that are marked by abnormal cell growth caused by damage to the DNA of cells signs/symptoms cough, hoarsness of breath, dyspnea, chest pain, cancer( Adeno carcinoma In lung) One of a large group of diseases that are marked by abnormal cell growth caused by damage to the DNA of cells risk factors exposure to dust or toxic gases, invasive tumors grow into neighboring tissues by growing into the spaces left from cell damage. Receptors on cancer cell surfaces help attachment to cell basment membrane. The cells also produce proteolytic enzymes that enable them to degrade neighboring cells and invade them. these cells also produce chemoactic factors to aid motility as well as develop psudopodia to fascilitate movement. Metastatic tumors begin with the spread of cancer cells to a new area of the body. Can travel in blood and lymph vessels as well as on surgical instruments and gloved hands., COPD: Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease. End result of either, emphysema, or chronic bronchitis, or combonations of these diseases., COPD: Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease. risk factors cigarette smoking, hypoventilation occurs leading to hypoxemia and hypercapnia Complications, these cells vary size and shape, function abnormally don't resemble the cell of origin produce substances not normally associated with the original cell, are not encapsulated, and can spread to other sites. uncontrolled cell growth leads to the development of tumors, large air spaces develop(bullae); hyperinflation of alveoli; and development of air spaces close to pleura. V/Q mismatching and hypoxemia Increased residual air volume and decreased caliber of the bronchioles, cancer( Adeno carcinoma In lung) One of a large group of diseases that are marked by abnormal cell growth caused by damage to the DNA of cells Diagnostics Sputum ctology reveals possible cell type., enzymatic digestion of bronchiolar septa, elastic tissue, and capillary beds Increased volume of air in the acinus, cancer( Adeno carcinoma In lung) One of a large group of diseases that are marked by abnormal cell growth caused by damage to the DNA of cells Treatments surgical removal of Tumor, cancer( Adeno carcinoma In lung) One of a large group of diseases that are marked by abnormal cell growth caused by damage to the DNA of cells Treatments radiation therapy, cancer( Adeno carcinoma In lung) One of a large group of diseases that are marked by abnormal cell growth caused by damage to the DNA of cells Treatments Chemotherapy, Inflammation leads to increased mucus production, hypertrphyand htperplasia of the mucous glands. mucus produced is thick and sticky, promoting infiltration of pathogens, and decreasing ciliary action resulting in reduced mucus clearance from the airways., cancer( Adeno carcinoma In lung) One of a large group of diseases that are marked by abnormal cell growth caused by damage to the DNA of cells involves three steps: initiation, promotion ,and progression, cancer( Adeno carcinoma In lung) One of a large group of diseases that are marked by abnormal cell growth caused by damage to the DNA of cells Diagnostics Bone scan, biopsy, and ct scan of brain and abdomen reveal metastasis., uncontrolled cell growth leads to the development of tumors Tumors can be localized, invasive, or metastatic
