18
Q

Two parts of basal Lamina

A

Lamina lucida, Lamina densa

19
Q

Lamina Lucida is made up of….

A

extracellular glycoproteins (entactin, integrins and laminin)

20
Q

Lamina Densa is made up of…

A

collagen IV fibrils

21
Q

Reticular Lamina

A

produced by fibroblasts, made of collagen I and III

22
Q

Thick Skin

A
palmar hand, plantar foot
Sweat Glands
No Hair
epidermal ridges present
Keratinized
thick stratum corneum
23
Q

Thin Skin

A

everywhere BUT plantar foot and palmar hand
Sweat and sebaceous glands
Hair
thin stratum corneum

24
Q

5 Epidermis Layers or Strata

A

Corneum, Lucidum, Granulosum, Spinosum, Basale

Coach Larry Got Stung Baddly

25
Epidermis
5 layers avascular keratinized stratified squamous epithelium Free nerve endings
26
Stratum Basale
``` aka Germinatvium bound to keratinocytes by desmosomes bound to basal lamina by hemidesmosomes at dermal epidermal junction mitotically active produces keratin simple cuboidal/columnar ```
27
Stratum Spinosum
spiny appearance - bundules of tonofilaments associated w/ desmosomes mitotically active thickens with pressure to produce corns/calluses makes keratohyalin and lamellar granules
28
Stratum Granulosum
3-5 layers thick distinct nucleus granules present
29
Keratohyalin Granules
Basophilic non-membrane bound granules Cystine and Histadine rich assembles keratin into bundles cholesterol sulfate = glue
30
lamellar granules
barrierto foreign material | protects from dehydration
31
Stratum Lucidum
no organells or nuclei THICK SKIN ONLY densly packed keratin filaments
32
Stratum Corneum
multiple layers filled w/ mature keratin thick = 15-40 layers thin = 10-20 layers
33
4 epidermis cell types
Keratinocytes, Melanocytes, Langerhans cells, merkel cells
34
Keratinocytes
make Keratin and Lamellar Granules final location of Melanin most abundant
35
Melanocytes
In stratum basale (no desmosomes) | makes melanin and transfers to keratinocytes
36
Melanin
protects cell nuclei from UV radiation Tyrosinase enzyme is UV sensitive Cytocrine secretion
37
Langerhans Cells
``` In Stratum Spinosum mainly dendritic cells easily damaged by UV rays immunologic skin rxns Birbecks granules ```
38
Merkel Cells
``` In Stratum Basale more numerous in thick skin free nerve endings mechanorecptors (sensation) can give rise to very bad skin cancer part of diffuse neuroendocrine system ```
