There are four types of tissues:
Epithelial
Connective
Muscle
Nervous
Definition of tissue
Tissue is a group of cells working together for a common function
Examples of connective tissue
blood, bone, cartilage, and dermis underneath your skin
Tissue has two major components
Cells ans extracellular matrix
Epithelial tissue.
Characteristics
Cell always touch. No much extracellular matrix.
In the epithelial tissue, strength comes from ______
cytoskeleton
In the connective tissue, strength comes from _______
Extracellular Matrix
Types of cell junctions
Anchoring junctions
Occluding junctions
Channel Forming Junctions
Signal Relaying
Anchoring cell junction
It hold cells to each other in the tissue
Occluding junction
It occlude things from passing
Anchoring junction is btw cell to cell
There are two main groups of anchoring junctions:
Cell-Cell
Cell-ECM
Types of anchoring junctions
Actin filament attachment sites
a) cell-cell junctions (adherens junctions)
b) cell-matrix junctions (actin-linked-cell-matrix adhesions)
Intermediate filament attachment sites
a) cell-cell junctions (desmosomes)
b) cell-matrix junctions (hemidesmosomes)

Hemidesmosome
Transmembrane adhesion protein
Integrin
Hemidesmosome
Extracellular ligand
extracellular matrix proteins
Hemidesmosome
Intracellular cytoskeletal attachment

Hemidesmosome
Intracellular anchor proteins
plectin, dystonin (BP230)
Cell to Cell Anchoring Junctions
Two types:
Zonula Adherens or adherens junctions
Desmosomes
Zonula adherins
They are connected to by a family of adherins. The family is called cadherin. Cadherins are transmembrane proteins. They expand space btw cells and link the cytoskeleton of the cells to actin. This linkage is done by anchor proteins.
Proteins that link cadherin to actin are:
p120, beta catenin, and other anchor proteins.
These proteins are very important for the regulation of adhesions.
Desmosomes
Transmembrane proteins:
Desmoglein and desmocollin
Pemphigus
It is a disease. When you disrupt the linkage of the proteins to the intermediate filaments. Therefore, desmosomes are disrupted.
Cell to ECM Anchoring junctions
Two types
Focal adhesion (actin)
Hemidesmosomes (intermediate filaments)
