Covering and Lining Membranes • Composed of: |
of at least two primary tissue types – Epithelium bound to underlying connective tissue proper – Are simple organs |
|
Three types of Covering and Lining Membranes |
– Cutaneous membranes (skin i.e., Ch 5) – Mucous membranes – Serous membranes |
|
Cutaneous Membranes |
• Skin • Keratinized stratified squamous epithelium (epidermis) attached to a thick layer of connective tissue (dermis) • Dry membrane |
|
Mucous Membranes |
• Mucosa indicates location not cell composition • All called mucosae – Line body cavities open to the exterior (e.g., digestive, respiratory, urogenital) • Moist membranes bathed by secretions • Epithelial sheet lies over layer of connective tissue called lamina propria • May secrete mucus |
|
lamina propria |
epithelial sheet over layer of connective tissue |
|
locations of mucosa membrane |
Mucosa of nasal cavity Mucosa of mouth Esophagus lining Mucosa of lung bronchi |
|
Serous Membranes |
• Serosae—found in closed ventral body cavity • Simple squamous epithelium (mesothelium) resting on thin areolar connective tissue |
|

Tissue repair occurs in two major ways |
–Regeneration
–Fibrosis
|
|
Regeneration |
• Replaces destroyed tissue with same kind of tissue |
|
–Fibrosis |
• Connective tissue replaces destroyed tissue to form scar tissue • Original function lost |
|
Steps in Tissue Repair: Step 1 |
• Inflammation sets stage –Release of inflammatory chemicals –Dilation of blood vessels – Increase in vessel permeability –Clotting occurs |
|
Steps in Tissue Repair: Step 2 |
• Organization restores blood supply –Blood clot is replaced with granulation tissue –Epithelium begins to regenerate –Fibroblasts produce collagen fibers to bridge the gap –Debris is phagocytized |
|
Steps in Tissue Repair: Step 3 |
• Regeneration and fibrosis –The scab detaches –Fibrous tissue matures; epithelium thickens and begins to resemble adjacent tissue –Results in a fully regenerated epithelium with underlying scar tissue |
|
Keloid |
• Abnormal proliferation of connective tissue during healing of skin wounds • Large unsightly mass of scar tissue at skin surface • Common in African Americans & Mediterranean ancestry • Excision typically results in reoccurrence with enhancement |
|
Regenerate extremely well |
– Epithelial tissues, - bone, - areolar connective tissue, - dense irregular connective tissue, - blood-forming tissue |
|
Moderate regenerating capacity |
– Smooth muscle and dense regular connective tissue |
|
Virtually no functional regenerative capacity |
– Cardiac muscle & nervous tissue of brain/spinal cord – New research shows cell division does occur & efforts underway to coax them to regenerate better |
|
Aging Tissues properties |
• Normally function well through youth and middle age if adequate diet, circulation, and infrequent wounds and infections • Epithelia thin with increasing age so more easily breached • Tissue repair less efficient • Bone, muscle and nervous tissues begin to atrophy • DNA mutations possible increased cancer risk |
