5 Epithelial Cell Junctions

A
  1. Tight Junction (Zonula Occludens) : sealer proteins

Q

4 Classifications of Epithelial Glands

A
  1. Number and morphology of secretory units
  2. Branching of their ducts
  3. Type of secretory products that they manufacture
  4. Mechanisms of secretions of cell products
53
Q

2 Types of Glands

A
  1. Simple - ducts not branched
  2. Compound - ducts with two or more branches
54
Q

2 Secretory Portions of glands

A
  1. Tubular - short or long and coiled
  2. Acinar - rounded and saclike
55
Q

Types of Compound glands

A
  1. Multiple Tubular
  2. Acinar
  3. Tubuloacinar
56
Q

Three Basic Mechanisms of Epithelial Glands

A
  1. Merocrine secretion - secretory cells release secretion
  2. Holocrine secretion - Entire secretory unit destroyed in the process of secretion
  3. Apocrine secretion - Cytoplasm removed from secretory unit
57
Q

5 Types of Simple Exocrine Glands

A
  1. Simple Tubular - elongated secretory portion
  2. Branched Tubular - several long secretory parts = 1 duct
  3. Coiled Tubular - secretory portion = very long and coiled
  4. Acinar or Alveolar - rounded, saclike secretory portion
  5. Branched Acinar - multiple saclike portions = same duct
58
Q

3 Types of Compound Glands

A
  1. Tubular - Secretory units = form large ducts
  2. Acinar - Secretory units with small ducts = larger duct
  3. Tubuloacinar - Ducts of both tubular and acinar = large duct
