Q

wound healing

A

collagen and elastic fibers oriented in parallel lines
LANGER LINES

  • fibroblasts differenctiate into myofibroblasts

myofibroblasts also involved inclosure via actin/myosin contractile motion

Q

Lamellar Bodies

A

Make water barrier by exuding contents via secretion (exocytosis)
-probarrier lipids, lipid processing enzymes, proteases all into intracellular space between SG and SC

cell envelop?

17
Q

Structures of basal lamina and near

A

Hemidesmosomes use IF to teather cells to BL
reticular fibers within BL
-type VII collagen used for anchoring loops, attached BL to reticular lamina

focal adhesions function via actin

18
Q

Cell Junctions

A

All layers connected by desmosomes

when fixed the stratum spinosum cells shrink and processes more visible

desmosomes tether keratinocytes together

cell jxns undergo proteolytic degredation in pH dependant manner with pH gradient to surface

more acidic activates desmosome degredation

exfoliation of deal cells: desquamation

19
Q

Melanocytes

A

neural crest derived

stain electron lucent

migrate into stratum basale

pax 3 differentiates melanocytes (???)
-NO desmosomes

produce melanin granules (get darker as they get more mature)

-skin color differences due to differential maturation of melanin and degredation
(integument pigmenttation determined by melanin content of keratinocytes)

of melanocytes similar across humans

keratinocytes phagocytose melanin granules from extensions to uptake melanin

  • leave melanocyte via kinesin
  • enter keratinocyte via dynein
20
Q

Cancers of epidermal origin

A

basal cell carcinoma, most comon least deadly

squamous cell carcinoma (less com, more dang)

malignant melanoma (least common most deadly)

ABCD rule
assymetric border
border of legion irregular
color variation
diameter greater than 6mm
21
Q

langerhans cells

A

antigen presenting cells (presenting to t lympocytes)

  • originate in bone marrow and migrate to stratum spinosum
  • indented nuclei
  • NO desmosomes

-rod shaped birbeck granules in cytoplasm ,
express the lectin langerin, inducing formation of birbeck granules , interlalize and degrade HIV?

cytoplasm stains clear, long cytoplasmic processes

22
Q

Markel Cells

A

neural crest derived

located in stratum basale

most abundant in fingertipes

contained dense cored neurosecretory granules
-desmosome tetherd to deratinocytes

  • synapse with psudounipolar neurons, fucntions for tactile sensation
  • clear in tolouine bue
23

  • tactile
  • surface
24
Q

Derivatives - Hair Follicles

A

Sebacious glands
-errector pilli muscle associated

Apocrine gland: hair follicle associated

Eccrine gland: not physically part of the hair follicle

Epi Derived: Medulla, cortex (cuboidal cells), cuticle (squamous cells) (last two have most (hard) keratin), internal root sheathe, external root sheath

Dermally Derived: glassy membrane (separates two derivations), CT that extends into base as hair papilla, enclosed by bulb

hair color determined by melanin content and type

25
Q

Structures of Integument
-where they derive from
what are endocrine and exocrine

A

Stroma: CT tissue derived, supportive role–typically CT

Parenchyma: epithelial derived: primary function in organ

endocrine: secretes hormones into stroma, hor reach target through blood
exocrine: secrete into ducts, ducts convey products to lumen

26
Q

Apocrine, Holocrine, Exocrine

A

Apocrine

  • released from apical end of cell
  • secretory product released into lumen
  • release with some cytoplasm and PM
  • lactating mammary glands

Holocrine:

  • secretory product released into lumen
  • released with cell debris after apoptosis
  • sebacious glands of integument

Merocrine:

  • secretory product released from apical side
  • kind of excytosed into limen
  • SWEAT glands
27
Q

Sebacious Glands

A

ACNE-sebum and acne

Holocrine secretion

  • sebum: lipid product plus cell debris after apoptosis
  • branched acinar glands
28

Q

Development of Integument

A

Epidermis derived from ectoderm

dermis derived from mesenchyme

  • lateral plate mesoderm for limbs and body wall
  • paraxial for back
  • neural crest cells for face and neck

Ecto- periderm and basal layer - periderm and intermediate layer - SC, SL, SG, SS, (melanocyte)SB (EPIDERMAL RIDGE) —–EPIDERMIS

meso-mesenchyme- development of collagenous and elastic fibers, papillary layer, reticular layer

melanoblasts

TIME FRAME

33
Q

epidermis differentiation

A

BMP4 & FGF induce ectoderm to form epidermis
-Notochord: noggin, chordin and follistatin expression inhibit BMPr which allow ectoderm to form neural plate

intermediate concentration ofBMP4 induces two wave of transcription factors which speficy ectodermal cells as a neural crest and promote NC migration

low concentration BMP4 neural plate
intermediate BMP4 : neural crest
high BMP4: epidermis

look at little body diff thing
