    Study Notes

    Connective Tissue

    • Loose Connective Tissue Areolar is found beneath epithelia, around blood vessels, and in the nervous tissue.
    • Reticular fibers are mainly found in reticular connective tissue, which stains with silver.
    • Reticular fibers are produced by fibroblasts.
    • Reticular connective tissue is mainly found in the liver, spleen, and lymph nodes.

    Adipose Tissue

    • White Adipose Tissue constitutes around 20% of body weight in men.
    • White Adipose Tissue is primarily composed of unilocular adipocytes with a large central lipid droplet, surrounded by a thin layer of cytoplasm with few organelles.
    • The primary function of White Adipose Tissue is to store energy in the form of lipids.
    • The primary source of dietary fats brought to adipocytes is chylomicrons and VLDL (Very Low-Density Lipoprotein).

    Brown Adipose Tissue

    • Brown Adipose Tissue is mainly concentrated in the interscapular region of newborns.
    • The primary function of Brown Adipose Tissue is to produce heat by non-shivering thermogenesis.
    • Uncoupling Protein 1 (UCP1) enables protons to flow across the inner mitochondrial membrane in brown adipocytes, producing heat.
    • Norepinephrine initiates heat production by stimulating brown adipocytes in hibernating animals and newborn humans.

    Staining and Structure

    • Lipid appears black when preserved and stained with osmium tetroxide due to the high electron density of osmium.
    • Dense Regular Connective Tissue is typically found in tendons and ligaments, and has collagen fibers arranged parallel to each other.
    • Dense Irregular Connective Tissue is found in the walls of large arteries, trachea, and vocal cords, and has seemingly randomly arranged collagen fibers.
    • Elastic Connective Tissue has the primary function of allowing for stretch and recoil in tissues such as skin, lungs, and arteries.
