Sayner- histology of interstitium Flashcards
Helps to give the lung support and structure
fluid balance
tissue repair
interstitium
what happens if interstitial compartment becomes overwhelmed
pulmonary edema
3 main interstitiums
axial
intralobular
interlobular
red
red: axial (peribronchovascular and centrilobular interstitium)
green
intralobular interstitium (alveolar-capillary)
black
peripheral interstitium
peribronchovascular interstitium
once the terminal bronchiole enters into secondary pulmonary lobule, it becomes what
centrilobular interstitium
interstitium that supports the alveolar septa
intralobular interstitium (parenchymal interstitium)
peripheral interstitium (black) is made of what two things
subpleural interstitium
interlobular septa
interstitium underneath visceral pleura and basement membrane
subpleural interstitium
this interstitium contains lymphatics and pulm. venules
interlobular septa
interstitium is an _____system
integrated
components that make up pulmonary interstitium
CT (ECM and cells)
Extracellular structural network of macromolecules that provides mechanical and structural support to a connective tissue
extracellular matrix
2 components of ECM
fibrous proteins
ground substances
forms fibers that have high tensile strength; fibers secreted by fibroblasts
type I collagen (part of ECM)
deficiency of type I collagen (normal just less of it); affects bones, eyes, teeth, ears
osteogenesis imperfecta
stain for type I and II collagen
trichrome
makes up cartilage
type II collagen
makes up reticular fibers
type III collagen
makes up basement membrane
type IV collagen
defect in Alport—-embryonic form remains (kidney, eyes, ears)
type IV collagen
autoantibodies attack ____in goodpastures (lungs and kidneys)
type IV collagen
type IV collagen sheets cross linked with laminin form what
basement membrane
becomes fused membrane with type I cells of alveolar epithelium and endothelial cells of pulm capillary
basement membrane of airway
