Two portions: Secretory component and Duct component

26
Q

secretory component
1. what does clear cells secretes and what does dark cells secretes?
2. What does the myoepithelial cells do?

A
  1. Made up of clear cells (secrete watery sweat and electrolytes) and dark cells (secrete macromolecules in sweat using merocrine secretion)
    2.Myoepithelial cells - they contract to expel secretion into the duct
27
Q

Duct components characteristics?

A

Lined by dark cells which form a layer of stratified cuboidal epithelium with microvilli in the lumen)

28
Q
  1. secretion of duct components are passed where?
    2.As eccrine duct passes through dermis it becomes coiled ?
A

1.Secretions are passed into a coiled duct which ascends through dermis to surface
2.(acrosyringium)

29
Q

Apocrine gland Limited distribution, connected to

A

infundibulum

30
Q

Where do we find apocrine glands?
Type of the gland and describes the organelles?

A

Mainly found in the axillae and groin
Coiled tubular gland with dilated lumen and distinct budding appearance of apical cytoplasm

31
Q

Apocrine gland Secretory component is consists of and found where?

A

simple cuboidal epithelium found in deep reticular dermis or subcutis

32
Q

True or false
apocrine gland Not functional until puberty

A

True

33
Q

Apocrine glands produces a slightly what?

A

Produces a slightly viscous secretion by exocytosis (apocrine mode of secretion) that may acquire an odour with bacteria activation

34
Q
  1. Layer of connective tissue derived from mesoderm?
  2. What does this layer supports?
  3. What does this layer responsible for?
  4. Name the fibres in this layer and the arrangement of the fibres
  5. Name the two layers this layer has
A
  1. Dermis
  2. Supports the overlying epidermis and anchors it to the hypodermis
  3. Responsible for tone and texture of skin, contains skin appendages, vascular supply, nerves and nerve endings
  4. Bundles of collagen fibres and strands of elastic fibres embedded in small amounts of acellular ground substance with fibroblasts
  5. Has two layers: Papillary dermis and Reticular dermis
35
Q

Differentiates between papillary dermis and reticular dermis

A

A. Papillary dermis Thin layer of loose connective tissue with fibroblast, cell and fibres that anchor to the basal lamina and bind the epidermis to the dermis
B. Reticular dermis Thicker layer of dense irregular connective tissue

36
Q

A. what does the papillary dermis contains
B. What does the reticular dermis contain?

A

A. Contains arterioles, venules and fine nerve endings from Meissner corpuscles
B. Contains blood vessels and nerves

37
Q

Classify the dermis

B. Lymphocytes are present but scarce, they increase in number in skin diseases
Varies in thickness depending on area of the body

A

A. Papillary dermis
B. Reticular dermis

38

B. what does this layer contains?
C. Compartmentalization of this layer
D. what does the extensive vascular supply promotes?
E. In areas with terminal hair the subcutis contains
F. In parts of the face the subcutis contains

A

E. the hair follicle and apocrine and eccrine glands
F. sheets of skeletal muscle, such as the muscles of facial expression

39
Q

Describe the layers in the scalp
Dermis and hypodermis

A

Dermis:
Broad layer, upper part contains abundant hair follicles and associated sebaceous glands
Hypodermis:
Similarly broad, contains the deeper aspects of the follicles such as the hair bulb
Fibrous layer is deep to subcutis

40
Q

A. Skin of soles and palms are
B. Explain the layers of the Sole
C. Acrosyringium is visible –

A

A. Glabrous (no hair and follicles)
B. Epidermis:
Thick, prominent granular layer with thick layer of compact keratin (stratum corneum)
Elongated epidermal ridges extend into dermis to increase area of attachment and minimise risk of separation
C. intraepidermal aspect of the eccrine ducts (sweat duct)

41
Q

Explain the skin of the mons pubis, labium majus and labium minus

A

Mons Pubis:
Skin with abundant hair follicles and apocrine glands, thick layer of subcutaneous adipose tissue
Labium Mujus:
Pilosebaceous units in upper dermis, smooth muscle fibres in deep dermis
Inner surface has no hair follicles but has sebaceous glands
Labium Munus:
No hair follicles
Stratified keratinised squamous epithelium with scattered sebaceous glands that open directly onto skin

42
Q

What is Naevi?

A

Also termed “moles”
Common benign accumulation of melanocytes in:
Dermis –intradermal naevus
Epidermis –junctional naevus
Dermis and Epidermis –Compound naevus

43
Q

A. what is malignant melanoma
B. Particularly affect which people?

A

A. Malignant melanoma is a dangerous malignant tumour of melanocytes
It is the most invasive skin cancer with the highest risk of death
About 30% of melanoma’s begin existing in naevi, rest on normal skin
B. Particularly affects pale-skinned people exposed to excessive UV Light

44
Q

A. Transition of keratinocytes from basal cells to granular layer of degenerating cells is an organised maturation process producing tough water-resistant keratin on the skin surface
B. Process takes
C. Process description
D. Clinically the skin?

A

A. Psoriasis
~ 50-60 Days
Psoriasis manifests as epidermal hyperplasia with accelerated maturation of ~ 7 Days
C. This rushed process does not allow the granular layer to form properly and nuclei remain in the keratinised squamous cells
D. Clinically the skin has a surface of opaque, flaky, white scale overlying a thickened red epidermis

45
Q

What are skin appendages?

A

hair, nails, sweat glands, and sebaceous glands.

46
Q

Which layer of the skin has appendages?
