Presentation Transcript

  1. Tissues • Whole body contains only 200 different cells types that are organized into tissues • The extracellular fluid surrounding the cells organized into tissues is called interstitial fluid • Four primary tissue classes • epithelial tissue • connective tissue • muscular tissue • nervous tissue

  2. Epithelial Tissue • Covers the entire surface of the body • includes skin, lining of the lung, lining of the digestive tract, lining of the urinary tract, lining of the reproductive tract • barrier between what is IN the body and what is OUT of the body • controls what substances enter/exit the body and what substances stay in/out of the body • Primary tissue type found in exocrine glands • secrete substances out of the body (sweat, saliva, digestive system juices) • Classification of epithelial tissue is based on: • the shape of the cells that make up the tissue • the number of layers of epithelial cells

  3. Epithelial Tissue: Basic Structure • Made of epithelial cells that are connected to adjacent cells by proteins called tight junctions • create “sheets” of epithelial cells • similar in structure to a six-pack of cans • Anchored to the body by a structure called the basement membrane • Epithelial cells have 2 sides • apical side of the cell faces toward the OUTSIDE of the body • basal side of the cell faces toward the INSIDE of the body

  4. Shape of Epithelial Cells • Cell shape • squamous (flattened cells) • cell width is larger than cell height • cells have flat nuclei • cuboidal (cube-like cells) • cell width is equal to cell height • spherical nuclei • columnar (column-like cells) • cell height is larger than cell width • tall nuclei

  5. Layering of Epithelial Cells • Simple • one cell layer thick • transports substances into or out of the body • Stratified • more than one cell layer thick • protects body from mechanical damage (abrasion, puncture…) • Pseudostratified • one cell layer thick made of cells with differing heights • gives false impression of stratified epithelium

  6. Epithelia: Simple Squamous • Single layer of squamous epithelial cells

  7. Epithelia: Simple Cuboidal • Single layer of cuboidal epithelial cells

  8. Epithelia: Simple Columnar • Single layer of columnar cells

  9. Epithelia: Pseudostratified Columnar • Single layer of cells with different heights; some do not reach the surface of the body

  10. Epithelia: Stratified Squamous • Multiple layers of squamous cells with flat nuclei

  11. Epithelia: Stratified Cuboidal and Columnar • 2-3 layers of cuboidal/columnar cells • Both are rare in the body

  12. Epithelia: Transitional • The shape of the cells will change based on the amount of stress (stretch) on the tissue • Can appear as cuboidal or columnar when not stretched or squamous when stretched

  13. Connective Tissue • Most abundant tissue type • 4 primary types • Connective tissue proper • loose • dense • Cartilage • Bone • Blood

  14. Structural Elements of Connective Tissue 3 structural elements (components) of connective tissue • Cells • Ground substance • unstructured (gel-like) material that fills the spacebetween cells (interstitialspace) • Fibers • very large proteins extracellular proteins which make a web-like structure holding tissues together • Ground substance + fibers = Extracellular Matrix

  15. Structural Elements of Connective Tissue

  16. Cells There are 4 different cell types which are responsible for building (blast = “to build”) the 4 different types of connective tissue • Fibroblasts • connective tissue proper • Chondroblasts • cartilage • Osteoblasts • bone • Hemocytoblast • blood

  17. Fibers 3 primary types of extracellular fibers provide different physical characteristics to connective tissue types • Collagen • very thick and strong, do not stretch • provides tough structure to tissue • Elastic • thin and strong, allow for stretch and then recoil (return to original length) when released • Reticular • thin and fragile, do not stretch • provide delicate structure to tissue

  18. Loose Connective Tissue Proper: Areolar

  19. Loose Connective Tissue Proper: Adipose • Stores lipids to use as fuel, insulation and protection

  20. Loose Connective Tissue Proper: Reticular

  21. Dense Connective Tissue Proper: Regular • Manyparallel collagen fibers with a few elastic fibers • Attaches muscles to bone (tendons) and bone to bone (ligaments)

  22. Dense Connective Tissue Proper: Irregular • Manynon-parallel collagen fibers with a few elastic fibers

  23. Connective Tissue: Cartilage • 3 types • Hyaline • Fibrocartilage • Elastic • Made of chondrocytes found in a lacuna (“pit”) within the firm but flexible extracellular matrix comprised of a network of collagen fibers
