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

|
|
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) |
