TOB Flashcards
Describe keratinocyte differentiation
mitosis in basal
lose mitosis in prickle cell
lose Pm and become corneocyte in granular
flattened in horny layer
how calcium allows muscle contraction
ca binds to TnC of troponin and moves tropomyosin
describe excitation contraction coupling
ACh binds to AChRs on sarcolemma and propagates AP along sarcolemma and down T tubule
AP in tubules triggers Ca release from SR etc.
what CTs surround nerves
endoneurium - individual axon
perineurium - fascicle
epineurium - around whol eneve
what is endochondral ossification. what bones does it occur in
most bones
cartilage > bone. starts in mid shaft
intramembranous ossification and what bones and cells
flat bones
CT > bone
mesenchymal cells –> osteoblasts
what post ganglionic symp uses ACh
sweating and ejaculation
give order of skeletal muscle units
myofilament > fibril > fibre > fascicle
collagen histology
collagen fibres with flat fibroblasts
bone repair
inflammation > soft callus (fibrocartilage) > hard callus > remodelling
how many days for epithelia in skin and small intestine to renew
skin - 28 days
small intestine - 4-6 days
give the types of WBC and their function and appearance
neutrophil - multilobed nucleus
eosinophil - parasites and allergies. bi-lobed with pink granules
basophil - histamine release. bi or tri lobed with blue granules. circulates in blood.
Mast cells - histamine release. bi or tri lobed with blue granules. fixed in tissue. More granules and smaller nucleus than basophil
lymphocyte - big nucleus. B/T/NK cells
monocyte - kidney shaped nucleus
where dense regular CT
ligaments and tendons
what fibroblasts secrete
collagen. elastic and reticular fibres, ground substance
what is nissl substance
RER
functions of skin
psychosexual comm, thermoregulation, barrier, sensation
