MAMMALIAN PHENOTYPE - ANNOTATIONS

The Mouse Adult Gross Anatomy Ontology and Mammalian Phenotype Ontology are downloaded weekly from the Mouse Genome Informatics databases at Jackson Laboratories (ftp://ftp.informatics.jax.org/pub/reports/index.html).

Term:reactive type II pneumocyte hyperplasia
go back to main search page
Accession:MP:0031238 term browser browse the term
Definition:alteration to type II pneumocytes following lung injury that results in increased numbers of these cells occurring in clusters and having morphological alterations including: cuboidal shapes, increased nucleocytoplasmic ratio, enlarged nuclei, prominent nucleoli, and various alterations in their nuclear chromatin
Comment:reactive type II pneumocyte hyperplasia develops as a response to alveolar injury in various pulmonary disorders, esp. in the setting of inflammation and interstitial fibrosis and during the healing phase of diffuse alveolar damage
Synonyms:exact_synonym: reactive alveolar type II cell hyperplasia
 narrow_synonym: Type II pneumocyte hyperplasia
 xref: HP:0033328
