Q

PRINCIPAL LAYERS/STRATA OF
CELLS:

A

STRATUM BASALE
STRATUM SPINOSUM
STRATUM GRANULOSUM
STRATUM LUCIDUM
STRATUM CORNEUM

18
Q

Deepest layer
 Single row of ??? or ???
keratinocytes

Contains??? form the tough protein keratin
Contains ??? & ??

Protects deeper layer from injury??

Attach stratum basale to stratum spinosum? so therefore this layer contains?

Attach epidermis and dermis? so this layer contains

A

Stratum basale, cuboidal & columnar, KERATIN INTERMEDIATE
FILAMENTS

Merkel cells and melanocytes

Keratinocytes

Desmosomes
Hemidesmosomes

19
Q

 Superficial to stratum basale
 With coarse bundles of keratin in
intermediate filaments
 Cells shrink and pull apart
appearing like thornlike spines
 Provides strength and flexibility of
skin

??? act as a part of the immune system to scavenge foreign proteins that invade epidermis

A

Stratum spinosum , Langerhans cells

20
Q

 Middle of epidermis
 With ?-? layers of keratinocytes
undergoing ???

__________________________
- assembles
keratin intermediate filaments to keratin

___________________________
-fuses
plasma membrane and release lipid-rich
secretion

A

Stratum Granulosum, 3-5 layers undergoing apoptosis

Keratinohyalin
Lamellar/Lameliated granules

21
Q

 Present only in the thick skin (fingertips,
palms and soles
 ?-? layers of flattened, clear and dead
keratinocytes (with thick plasma
membranes)
 Provides an additional level of toughness
in this region of the skin

A

Stratum lucidum, 4-5 layers

22
Q

Cells are extremely thick, flat, plasma
membrane-enclosed packages of keratin
 Final product of the process of
keratinocytes
 Cells overlap one another like the scales
on the skin of a snake
_________ - constant exposure of skin to
friction (increased cell and keratin
production)

A

Stratum corneum, Callus

23
Q

Composition: dense irregular connective
tissue containing ??? and ??
● Has the ability to stretch
and recoil easily
● Blood vessels, nerves,
glands and hair follicle

???= collagen: strength and d roughness, ability to stretch

???= elastic fibers, flexibility and stretch (ability to return to its original shape)

A

Dermis, collagen & elastic
fibers

extensibility, elasticity

24
Q

Superficial region of dermis

—-small, nipple-shaped
structures that project into the
undersurface of the epidermis (with
capillary loops/blood vessels) this forms dermal ridges that form our fingerprints, palm prints and footprints

—-nerve endings sensitive to touch (warmth,
coolness, pain, tickling and itching)

A

Papillary region

Dermal papillae, Meissner corpuscle

25
Q

Deeper region of dermis
• Contains bundles of thick collagen fibers,
scattered fibroblasts and various
wandering cells.

• _______________: arranged in a netlike
manner (helps the skin resist stretching)
• _____________________________: provides
strength, extensibility, ability to stretch,
and elasticity.

A

Reticular region, Collagen fibers, collagen and elastic fibers

26
Q

Macrophages
??? reside in a specific tissue and remain relatively stationary

??? circulate in the bloodstream and migrate to various tissue in response to infection or injury

A

fixed, wandering (free)

27
Q

2 layers of the dermis

A

papillary and reticular region
