3)CT, Bone , Cartilage (MEQ) Flashcards
Cartilage Bone and Blood is under
Specialised connective tissues
Where does all the connective tissue developed from?
Embryonic Mesenchyme
Mechanical function of Specialised connective tissues
provide connecting and supporting tissues of the body
Nutritional function (Specialised connective tissues)
inter-cellular substance responsible for nutritional exchange
Defensive function (Specialised connective tissues)
Blood leucocytes& histiocytes defend the body against bacteria and foreign bodies
What are the cells of connective tissue
Mesenchyme cell* (embryonic)
Fibroblast/ fibrocyte
Macrophage
Plasma cell
Mast cell
Fat cell (Adipocytes)
Leucocyte
Which SUPPOTIVE tissue is from neural crest cell not from mesenchymal cell? (MCQ)
Neuroglia
Thymus
Chromatophores
Fibroblast morphology
Active cell
eosinophilic cytoplasm
polyhedral cell with long tapering cytoplasmic processes
Large active nuclei
Spindle shape
Function of fibroblast
form fibers and ground substances
Fibrocyte morphology
Inactive cells
Lesser cytoplasmic processes
spindle shape
Nucleus is small and darker
Macrophages morphology
great capacity for pinocytosis& phagocytosis
Several cells grouped together and engulf large particles are called (MCQ)
foreign body giant cells
Inactive form of macrophage are called? (MCQ)
histiocytes
what is the 2 type of macrophages and their difference
TYPE: fixed macrophages Wandering/Free microphage
spindle shaped Irregular outline
condensed cytoplasm short& blunt cytoplasmic
with coarse granules process
example of tissue specific macrophages (MCQ)
Kupffer cells- liver
Microglia- central nervous system
Osteoclasts-bone
Alveoli macrophages- lungs
Langerhans cells- skin
Plasma cell morphology
Large
ovoid cells
deeply basophilic cytoplasm
Nucleus is large& spheroidal and eccentric
Function of Plasma cell
produce antibodies
Desc nucleus of plasma cell (MCQ)
Large and spheroidal and eccentric (Away the center)
Cart-wheel appearance of chromatin
Mast cells morphology
Large ovoid cells and deeply basophilic secretory granules
Nucleus is small, pale& spheroidal and located centrally
Function of mast cell
produces heparin and histamine (response to allergic reaction )
kill bacteria
