What are the characteristics of thin skin?
SHEA butter goes on the thin skin
Sebaceous glands
Hair
Eccrine
Apocrine sweat glands
What are the characteristics of THick skin?
Just Eccrine sweat glands
Sweaty palms and feet
What is epithelium Cellular type?
SSK
Simple Stratified Karatinized
Epidermis is to Epithelium as Dermis is to
Connective Tissue
CHaracteristics of Epidermis
Avascular
No Lymphatic capillaries
Where does the vasculature and lymphatics begin?
Dermis characteristics
Vascular
Lymphatics
Cells with abundant ECM
What is ECM
ECM= fibers + "ground substance"
What are ECM pimary fiber types, What is ground substance?
Collagen and Elastic fibers
Proteoglycans, adhesive glycoproteins
What are proteoglycans?
Core protein with surrounding GAGs
What are GAGs
Repeating disaccharide units (most are sulfated)
Hyaluronic acid is nOt sulfated
What in Ground substance has the negative charge?
What is the result of the charge?
Proteoglycans over-all, but the hi negative charge is b/c of the sulfated Gags.
Attract Na+ and H2O follows to create a hydration shell
Proteoglycans form aggreagates by securing to what structure? How do they bond?
Proteoglycans non-covalently boind to Hyaluronic Acid- become large "biological sponges'
Where is Versican? Where is Aggrecan?
Versican is in General Connective Tissues
Aggrecan is in Cartilage
(going to be on exam)
What is the role of Myofibroblasts in wound healing?
responsible for wound contraction
What is the collagen deposition pattern in wound healing?
Type III collagen, then type I
Type I is scar tissue
What is a multinucleated Giant Cell?
Macrophages fuse to wall of a foreign body or agent (bacteria)
What is the difference in T and B cells
T lymphocytes- Cell mediated Response
B Lymphoscytes- Humoral Immune responses. Require Effector Plasma Cell secretion of antibodies
Two types of Fat
Unilocular for E storage
Multilocular (BAT) for thermogenesis
What is the suggested characteristic order to consider when classifying general connective tissues?
# of cells (lots/little)
Fibers (Arrangement/ Type)
Spaces between (loose/dense)
What is indicative of Dense Irregular CT?
Collagen bundles in all different directions, Large course bundles
What feature is characteristic of Dense Regular CT?
Box car nuclei (looks like antelope canyon in SEM)
What are the two layers of Dermis?
Papillary layer and Reticular layer
What are the charachteristics of the papillary layer?
Has fingerlike projections up into the epidermis. Lots of different cell types and shapes, This is LOOSE CT, where all the transport is occuring to feed the epithelium
What are the characteristics of the Reticular layer?
DENSE IRREGULAR Lattice like network, packed with course thick dense collagen bundles
Has larger blood vessels that can't be squished
Remember:
Epidermis: SSK
Dermis: LCT (papillary) & DiRCT (reticular)
Where else can DiRCT be found? What about DRCT?
DiRCT- Joint capsules, Perichondrium, Periosteum
DRCT- Tendons (handle all force in 1 direction, hence dense regular)
Type I collagen w/ versican in both.
What are the three Cs and E that don't have lymphatics?
Cartilage, Cornea, CNS, Epidermis
(fluid drains out of these areas to those that have lymphatic capillaries
What are the three types of cartilage?
Hyaline
Elastic (confined to the head, neck, respiratory tract, and ear)
Fibrocartilage
What is the importance of Hyaline cartilage in the embryo and immature skeleton?
They make templates for long bones and epiphyseal plates.
What is the importance of Hyaline cartilage in the Adult?
Articular cartilage of the synovial Joints
What are the two functions of the perichondrium?
Nutrient supply to cartilage
Chondrogenic stem cells
Describe the evolution of Stem Cells to Hyaline Cartilage
Mesenchyme -
Chondrogenic cells + SOX9=
Chondroblasts + surrounding matrix (lacunae)=
Chondrocytes+ appositional growht=
hyaline cartilage
What is the most common type of growth in mature cartilages?
Appositional
Isogenous groups represent what?
Inidcative of early cartilage formation & epiphyseal plates
Interstitial growth (from within)
What is the collagen/PG in Cartilage? What is the collagen/PG in bone and perichondrium?
Cartilage: TypeII/ Agrican
Perichondrium and bone: Type I/Veriscan
What is the ECM of cartilage?
The same as Dermis
Fibers and ground substance
What types of skeletal problems might an embryo or child have if the hyaline cartilage ECM is defective?
Problems with formation of long bones and elongation of the long bones during growth.
What is achondroplasia? Why does it happen?
Short long bones with thickened diaphyseal walls,
can develop nice bones bu they don't elongate properly.
Why is the skull of an individual with achondroplasia shaped the way it is?
Jaw and mandible form from endochondral ossification, skull doesn't need a cartilaginous model.
How can you differentiate Articular cartilage with epiphyseal plate cartilage?
Look for perichondrium, also, epiphyseal plate cartilage will have a strip of clustered isogenous groups thickened in the middle. Articular cartilage will have trails of isogenous groups headed toward the surface of the cartilage.
Where does articular cartilage receive nutrition?
from synovial fluid on the joint side, from BV in bone and perichondrium on bone side
Where is fibrocartilage?
What type of joint?
IVD
Symphysis type joints
Labrum of Acetabulum
Menisci, Articular disks.
Can be deposited in fracture repair.
What is the major difference between hyaline cartilage and fibrocartilage?
Fibrocartilage is type I Cartilage,
It is a hybrid of DCT and hyaline cartilage
There won't be any perichondrium
What can be seen in both fribro/hyaline cartilage?
Chondrocytes
Lacunae
Isogenous groups
What collagen and PG is in hyaline vs fibrocartilage? What structures have the same collagen as fibrocartilage?
Hyaline: Type II and agrican PG
Fibro; Type I and Versican, bone, perichondrium
In a stained image of fibrocartilage, where will agrican be found
