PATHOLOGIST
Types Of Tissues (4) ECMN
epithelial, connective, muscular, nervous
contact points
between the plasma membranes
of tissue cells.
cell junctions
Also known as Occluding Junctions or
Zonula Occludens
Tight Junctions
consist of web-like strands of
transmembrane proteins that fuse together the
outer surfaces of adjacent plasma membranes to
seal off passageways between adjacent cells.
Tight Junctions
Adherens junctions contain plaque, a dense layer
of proteins on the inside of the plasma membrane
that attaches both to membrane proteins and to
microfilaments of the Cytoskeleton.
Adherens Junctions
transmembrane glycoproteins that
joins the cells.
Cadherins
responsible for its resilience; bone

responsible for its
hardness; bone

calcified ground substance is mainly made up of
calcium phosphate
