Regeneration of Epithelial cells
|
Epithelial cells replace damaged or dead cells. Only cells closest to the basal lamina go through mitosis pushing dead or injured cells to the surface. Dead cells protect the rest of the cell layers.
|
|
Secretions of epithelial cells
|
Epithelial tissue may contain glands that produce secretion. (not all)
|
|
Transitional tissue 9function and location)
|
urinary bladder, ureter, urethra. function: stretching for urine.
|
|
Pseudostratified cilated columnar tissue. location and function
|
Trachea, bronchi. Function: protection with cilia to trap particles and move away mucus
|
|
Simple Columnar tissue. Location and Function
|
Stomach, large and small intestines. Kidney tubules. Function: protection with movement
|
|
Simple and stratified Cuboidal. Location and function
|
Thyroid gland, sweat glands, kidney tubules. Function: secretion
|
|
Stratified Squamous. Location and function
|
Epidermis, Esophagus, anal canal, vagina
|
|
Simple squamous. Location and function
|
lungs, blood vessels(lining), kindey glomerus. Function: easy transportation
|
|
Gross Anatomy
|
The structures you are studying are big enough to see with the naked eye.
|
|
Systems approach
|
Looking at one system at a time.
|
|
tissue
|
Grouping of cells similar and part of a unit.
|
|
endocrine glands
|
no excretory duct
|
|
multicellular glands
|
consist of endocrine and exocrine glands.
|
|
general epithelial characteristics (5)
|
1. All epithelial tissue has a basal lamina.
2. all epithelial tissue with out blood vessels-avascular. 3. all epithelial tissue regenerates new cells. 4. polarity- difference of structure and function between cells. 5. Some epithelial tissues may contain glands that produce secretion. |
|
basal lamina
|
Basal lamina is a foundation for epithelial tissue between the bottom layer of epithelial tissue and connective tissue. Basal lamina keeps things out and coming in. AKA basement membrane= basal lamina + lamina reticularis. Basal lamina is made up of a secretion of protein and carbs from the epithelial cells.
|
|
Connective tissue cells (5)
|
1. Fibroblast: most common connective tissue cells can become specialized cells. ie, may become osteoblast, changing function based on location.
2. Macrophage cells: Function as phagocytes to get rid of anything in your body no longer wants. ie, dead cells, bacteria. 3. Melanocytes: Produces melanin pigment and can be found in Epithelial tissue. 4. Adipocytes: stores fat 5. Leukocytes: white blood cells, fight infection |
|
General characteristics of connective tissue
|
1. cell
2. background material a. ground substance b. fibers 3. fiber |
|
Connective tissue background material
|
1. Ground substance: geltin-like
2. matrix: ground substance plus other compounds to make it strong. ie., bone, cartilage only use matrix. added compounds of bone consist of hydroxyapatite, and for cartilage is chondrotin sulfates. |
|
Types of anatomy that require microscopes
|
-cellular anatomy
-histology (study of tissues) |
|
connective tissue fibers
|
fibers are proteins produced by cells.
1. collagen 2. elastin 3. reticular |
