Vocabulary Flashcards
Name of the cpasule around the liver
Glisson’s capsule
Canal of Hering
Cholangiole
Secretion of D-cells in the pancreas?
Somatostatins
Layer of tunica muscularis in urinary bladder?
Inner longitudinal
Middle circular
Outer longitudinal
Composition of myelin
- Phospholipids
- Spingolipids
- Myelin (lipoprotein)
Enzymes at the microvilli of the SI?
- Disaccharidase
- Dipeptidase
- Enterokinase (Trypsinogen → Trypsin)
- Alkaline Phosphatase
Endocrine cells in the SI vs Stomach
Stomach → Argentaffin cells →
SI → Enteroendocrine cells → Cholecystokinin
Oxyntic cells
Parietal cells in the gastric region of the stomach
Disease caused by malfunction of parietal cells?
Atrophic gastritis
Pernicious anemia
Glycoproteins forming the ground substance of bone?
- Sialoprotein
- Osteocalcin
HERS
Hertwig epithelial root sheath → in tooth development
- Form cervical loop/ Crown-root junction
- Joining of IDE and ODE
Disease du to problem in collagen synthesis?
Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (smooth muscle cells reticular fibers)
Aneurysm → weakening blood vessels
Staining for elastic fibers
Masson’s Trichrome
Glycoprotein side sugar
N - Gluc - Gluc - Man - 2x (Man - Gluc - Gal - Sa)
Glycoproteins fround in BM of the skin
Fibronectin → PM of epithelial cells - Heparin Sulfate
Nidogen-1 (Entactin) → small, essential component of BMs
Laminin → Epithelial cells - BM
Disease which involves the development of an Ab against ACh?
Myastenia Gravis
Where is tubulin found?
a and b tubulin → form microtubules
- 1 microtubule = 13 protofilaments of a/b tubulin
Acetyl Cholinesterase
Found in the synaptic cleft
ACh → Acetate + Choline → detaches from ACh receptor + reinternalized into the pre-synaptic terminal
Proteins in the terminal web + tip of microvilli
Terminal web → Myosin + Actin
Tip of the microvilli → Villin
Gastrin
Secreted by Argentaffin cells in the gastric region of the stomach → binds to its receptor on parietal cells to stimulate secretion of gastric acid
Thyroid hormone vs Parathyroid hormone
Thyroid hormone (T3, T4) → regulates metabolism, growth and development
- Liver converts T4 → more potent T3
PTH → increases [Ca]
Cholecystokinin vs Secretin
Both produced in the duodenum:
CCK → stimulates pancreatic enzymatic secretion + contraction of gall bladder (to release bile)
Secretin → Stimulates pancreas to secrete H2O and HCO3- rich fluid to neutralize acidic chyme
Renin
Released by Juxtaglomerular cells of the kidney:
Angiotensin → Angiotensin I
Angiotensin is produced in the liver
*Angiotensin II:
- Constriction of renal afferent arterioles
- Stimulate Na reabsorption in PCT
Tonofilaments
Intermediate filaments found in epithelial cells
- binding to hemidesmosomes in
BP proteins form the plaque
*Formed of keratin proteins and vimentin
IF in smooth muscles are formed of desmin and vimentin instead
Where is the blood-air barrier found?
In the lungs
