Histology Flashcards
what is renal interstitium
reticular C.T with blood vessels
The other name of renal corpuscle
Malpighan corpuscle
the other name of large collecting ducts
pappilary ducts, Duct of bellini
Renal corpuscles are located in
cortex
what is the type of junction of the slit diaphragm
modified tight junctions
what proteins are in the slit diaphragm
nephrins
diameter of the renal corpuscle
200 micron
the GBM formed from
Glomerular capillary basal lamina and podocyte basal lamina
the layers of the GBM from outside to inside
Lamina Lucida External
Lamina Densa
Lamina Lucida Interna
Function of Fenestrated Capillary endothelium
block the Blood cells & Platelets
Thick combined (GBM)
Restrict large proteins as plasma proteins
slit diaphragms
restrict small proteins
which proteins that removed to filtrate
smaller proteins as polypeptide hormones
What happen to GBM in diabetes mellitus
protinuria
the reabsorption of sodium by aldosterone occur in
DCT
prominent basal folds and lateral interdigitations in
PCT
Reabsorption of all organic nutrients (glucose , amino acids, vitamins), all proteins, most water, and electrolytes occur in
PCT
what produce erythropiotein in kidney
Fibroblastic interstitial cells in cortical tissue around proximal tubule
L of membranous part of urethra
L for Lining
stratified columnar with patches of pseudo st columnar
L of prostatic urethra
transitional epithelium
How many lobes of the mammary glands?
15-25 lobes
the type of mammary glands?
Compound tubulo alveolar
What is the parenchyma of mammary glands?
formed of the duct system + Alveoli (inactive or active)
embedded in loose, vascular conncetive tissue
secrete testosterone
leydig cells
the stroma of testis consists of
- capsule(tunica vaginalis, albuginea, vasculosa)
- septa
the parenchyma of the testis consists of
- semineferous tubules
- interstitial leydig cells
visceral layer of the peritoneum around the testis
tunica vaginalis
Tunica albuginea: outer dense fibrous C.T. It
is thickened posteriorly to form
mediastinum testis from which septa arise and divide the gland
the septa arise from
mediastinum testis
thickened part of tunica albuginea
contains myoid cells
semineferous tubules
role of myoid cells
allow weak contractions of the
tubule pushing the sperm outside
L of semineferous tubules
germinal epithelium
Formation of fully formed sperm
Take about
10 weeks
Mean differentiation of
progenitor cells (spermatogonia)
into spermatids
Spermatogenesis
Mean differentiation of
spermatids into spermatozoa
Spermiogenesis
morphology of spermatogonia
small rounded cells with rounded central nuclei
act as reserve cells in the germinal epithelium
Dark type A spermatogonia
divide by mitosis to give type B
pale type A
the largest cells in spermatogenic cells
primary spermatocyte
which have larger nuclei type A or type B
type B
the first miotic division occur
at puberty
transform from primary spermatocyte to secondary spermatocyte
phases of spermiogenesis
Golgi phase
Cap phase
Acrosomal phase
Maturation phase
apperance of acrosomal granules in which phase
Golgi phase
these granule coalesce together to form acrosomal vesicle
the chromatin of the nucleus is condensed in which phase
cap phase
the two centrioles migrate to opposite poles of the nucleus of spermatid in which phase
golgi phase
hydrolytic enzyme of acrosome
hyaluronidase and trypsin like protease called acrosin
the nucleus flattened and condensed in which phase
acrosomal phase
the flagella elongates
in acrosomal phase
Unneeded cytoplasm is shed as aresidual body & phagocytosed by Sertoli cells.
maturation phase
The newly formed spermatozoa become disconnected from the Sertoli cells surface to lie free in the lumen of the seminiferous tubules
maturation phase
morphology of sertoli cells
tall columnar cells with basal oval nuclei
between the lateral borders of the two adjacent Sertoli cells just above the Spermatogonia.
tight occluding junctions
produce transport nutritive factors such as the irontransport protein transferrin
sertoli cells
exocrine and endocrine functions of sertoli cells
- testicular fluid
- Androgen binding protein
- inhibin that inhibit FSH by feedback mechanism
stimulates Leydig cells to secrete testosterone that stimulates spermatogenesis.
nterstitial cells stimulating hormone (LH)
