22. Dermis Flashcards
Dermis is from:
FNXS
Contains
mesoderm
structure and flexible, vascular and immuno, nerve
has adnexal strucutres
Contents of ECM
Collagen = main
elastic fibers
extrafibular matrix
to regulate cell fusnton and provide support to dermis
collagen produced from
provieds what?
dermal fibroblasts
very strong and minimal stretch
Col I vs
Col III
Col I: most abundant in skin
Col III: embryo/babies and wound healing
What collaged is in basement membrane
IV, VII, XVII
Elastic fibers made of and provide
microfibrils and elastin and provide elasticity
Whats in the Extrafibrillar matrix
water, electrolytes, plasma pro, proteoglycancs
Where are fibroblasts derived from and what do they do
from mesoderm
make ECM: collagen, elastic fibs and ground substance
HOw is collagen made
polypep on RER–> ER and GOLGi modifaction and glycosylation–> then intracellu is now procollagen–> extracell gets N and C cleaved and assembed
Where are blood vessels in skin
btw dermins and subQ
Where are free nerved endings in skin
Meisners corpuscles
Pancinian corpuscles
free is at epidermis
meissners is superficial skin for light touch, fingertips
Pancinian: deep in dermis for pressure and weight bearing
autosomal dom fibrillin disease
Marfan
Disorder of CT: usually collagen production with vairable presentation
Ehlers danlos
Autoimmune disease causing sclerosis or thickening of skin, more women then men and show as violaceous plaques then turns to hard scaly plaques
Morphea–collagen forms in sheets not individually
Complication of morphea
lim and joint and neuro invovlement
