Study Notes

General Information

  • Course: Biología Celular y Tisular
  • Module: I
  • Academic Year: 2024/2025
  • Professor: Cristina Yunta Yanes
  • Degree: Grado de Fisioterapia

Topic 1: Evolución y organización estructural de la célula

  • Biología Celular y Tisular is the topic of the course.
  • Key question in biology: What does it mean to be alive?
  • What are the fundamental properties that characterize all living things and distinguish them from inanimate or non-living matter?
  • These are the questions that cellular theory answers.
  • Living things are capable of growing, reproducing, processing information, communicating, responding to stimuli, and carrying out a wide variety of chemical reactions.
  • All living organisms are made up of cells.
  • A cell is a fundamental unit for the organization and function of the body.
  • Biology: The area of knowledge responsible for the study of living matter.
  • Cellular studies can be descriptive—studying the structure of living things—or functional—studying the vital processes of organisms.
  • Continuous cell proliferation and differentiation lead to the formation of different tissues in the body.
  • A single initial cell (produced from fertilization) gives rise to hundreds of different cell types differing in content, shape, size, color, mobility, and surface composition.
  • Cells must be organized into tissues, organs, and systems.
  • Levels of organization:
    • Chemical (atoms and molecules)
    • Cellular
    • Tissue
    • Organ
    • Organ system
    • Organism

Topic 2: La célula

  • Cells are alive and are able to die via apoptosis.
  • Cells contain genetic material (subject to change) and the means to use it.
  • Cells can evolve.
  • Cells can replicate.
  • Cells obtain energy through chemical reactions.
  • Cells react to stimuli and exhibit self-regulation.
  • Cells are complex and capable of organization.
    • Cells → Tissues → Organs → Organ systems → Organism
  • Cells are highly variable in size.
  • Cells display diverse shapes.
  • The main types of cells are determined by their specialization (epithelial, muscle, nerve, etc.).

Topic 2: La célula - Clasificación Celular

  • Simpler cell classification: prokaryotic and eukaryotic.
  • Key difference between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells:
    Feature Prokaryotic Eukaryotic
    Size 1-10 µm 10-100 µm
    Nucleus No Yes
    Nucleolus No Yes
    Ribosomes 70S (50S + 30S) 80S (60S + 40S)
    Endomembrane system No Yes
    Mitochondria No Yes
    Chloroplasts No Yes
    Respiration Anaerobic/Aerobic Aerobic
    Cell division Amitosis (binary fission) Mitosis/Meiosis
    Genetic material Proteins not histones Histones

Topic 2: La célula - Clasificación Celular (Animal vs. Vegetal)

  • Animal cells lack chloroplasts, cell walls, and large vacuoles but have centrosomes.
  • Plant cells have chloroplasts, cell walls, and large vacuoles but lack centrosomes.

Topic 3: El citoesqueleto

  • The cytoskeleton is a dynamic and adaptable system of filaments that form a framework throughout the cell.
  • It organizes internal structures, facilitates intracellular traffic, and allows cell division and movement.
  • The cytoskeleton is made up of three different types of filaments: microfilaments, intermediate filaments, and microtubules.
  • The properties (structure, composition, arrangement, and function) of each type of filament vary.

Topic 4: Sistema de endomembranas

  • A complex of internal cellular membranes.
  • Only present in eukaryotic cells.
  • Divides the cell into different compartments that are structurally and functionally distinct.
  • The basis of this membrane complex is the lipid bilayer, which is the same in all membrane components.
  • The endomembrane systems are found throughout the cytoplasm, either individually in vesicles or grouped as organelles.
  • Includes the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) , smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER), Golgi apparatus, lysosomes, peroxisomes, and vesicles of various types.

Topic 5: La célula animal-membrana plasmática y matriz extracelular

  • A cell is surrounded by the plasma membrane, which delineates it from the extracellular environment.
  • Its fundamental components are lipids (phospholipids, cholesterol, glycolipids), proteins (integral and peripheral), and carbohydrates (glycoproteins, glycolipids).
  • The plasma membrane is held together through hydrophobic interactions and van der Waals forces between the fatty acid tails.
  • This structural organization is critical for the membrane's stability and dynamic properties.
  • The membrane-bound compartments of the eukaryotic cell are separated by different forms of lipid and protein assemblies.

Topic 6: La matriz extracelular

  • The extracellular matrix provides the cellular environment.
  • It is largely made up of proteins, carbohydrates, and various other molecules.
  • The components of the extracellular matrix are continuously synthesized and degraded.
  • The structure and composition of the extracellular matrix vary according to the tissue type.
  • Key structural elements are proteoglycans (proteins with GAGs attached) and fibrous elements including collagens, elastic fibers, and reticular fibers.
  • This matrix plays a crucial role in cell organization, tissue structure, cell behavior, and physiological function.

Topic 7: Uniones intercelulares

  • Specific proteins mediate cell adhesion and communication.
  • These include:
    • Tight junctions
    • Adherens junctions
    • Desmosomes
    • Gap junctions
  • These specialized structures allow cells to form tissues and coordinate their actions.
