Question
Answer
intricate meshwork of interacting extracellular macromolecules that serve as a universal biological glue.
Extracellular matrix
the ECM can exist as highly specialized structures such as
cartilage, bone, tendons, teeth and the basal lamina
what are the two components of the ECM
"1. fibers
What makes up the fiber part of the ECM
"1. structural=collagen and elastin
Describe how GAG's assist in resisting compression and help make a semi-fluid gel in the ECM.
All but one of the GAG's are sulfated and these have negative charges. These negative charges attract cations such as sodium, high sodium concentration attracts extracellular fluid meaning it is highly hydrated.
What is the only nonsulfated GAG?
hyaluronic acid
What are the five GAG's
hyaluronic acid, chondroitin sulfate, dermatan sulfate, keratan sulfate, and heparan sulfate.
Type of GAG?"
hyaluronic acid
Type of GAG?"
chondroitin sulfate
Type of GAG?"
dermatan sulfate
Type of GAG?"
keratan sulfate
Type of GAG?"
heparan sulfate
When sulfated GAG's form covalent bonds with a protein core, they form a family of macromolecules known as the
proteoglycans
What are the functions of proteoglycans?
"1. resist compression
Expression:"
Keraton sulfate and chondroitin sulfate; cartilage
Name the glycoprotein; limited to basal lamina, binds heparan sulfate, type IV collagen, and entactin, and the cell membrane.
Laminin
Mats of specialized ECM that underlie all epithelial cell sheets and tubes.
Basal lamina
the basal lamina around fat cells, muscle cells, and schwann cells is referred to as
the external lamina
What glycoproteins are associated with the basal lamina?
laminin and entactin
What is present mainly on the pm side of the lamina densa where it helps bind epithelial cells to the lamina?
Laminin
The principal plasma membrane receptors on cells for binding the cytoskeleton to the ECM proteins, including collagen, fibronectin, and laminin are the ?
integrins
