A group of cells with similar structure and function plus extracellular substance (matrix) Histology: The study of tissues ¹ Extracellular Matrix (ECM) Functions Helps bind tissues together structurally ECM components bind to each other and to integrins (receptors) in plasma membranes of cells In some tissues, it is primarily intercellular junctions that hold cells together Allows local communication among ECM and various cells— through connection via integrins in plasma membranes 5 Extracellular Matrix (ECM) Components Water Proteins  Structural proteins Collagen—strong, flexible protein fiber Elastin—elastic fibers  Includes glycoproteins—proteins with a few carbohydrate attachments Help connect the ECM components to cells by binding with integrins in plasma membranes Glycoprotein attachments also allow local communication within a tissue 5 Types of Tissues 1. Epithelial 2. Connective 3. Muscular 4. Nervous ¹ 6 Epithelial Tissues Location: - cover body (internal and external) - Ex. Skin, kidney, trachea, glands, etc. ¹ 7 2 ² ² Characteristics of Epithelial Tissues Epithelial Tissues: - cells close together (very little extracellular matrix) - form most glands - have free surface – Apical surface - Basal surface: 10 attaches epithelial cells to underlying tissues Functions of Epithelial Tissues 1. Protect: Ex. Skin 2. Act as a barrier: Ex. Skin keeps bacteria out 3. Diffusion and Filtration: Ex. Lungs and kidneys 4. Secretion: Ex. Sweat glands 5. Absorption: Ex. Small intestine ¹ 12 Classification of Epithelial Tissue Classified according to number of cell layers and cell shape Simple and stratified = number of cell layers Squamous, cuboidal, columnar, transitional= cell shape 13 Types of Epithelial Tissues-No. of Layers Simple Epithelium Structure: 1 layer of cells Stratified Epithelium Structure: many layers of cells ¹ 14 Types of Epithelial Tissues-Shape of Cells Squamous Cuboidal Columnar Types of Simple Epithelial Tissues Simple Squamous Structure: 1 layer of flat, tile-like cells Function: diffusion and filtration Location: blood vessels, lungs, kidneys Simple Cuboidal Structure: 1 layer of square-shaped cells Function: secretion Location: glands, ovaries, kidneys ¹ 16 17 18 Types of Simple Epithelial Tissues Simple Columnar Structure: 1 layer of tall, narrow cells Function: secrete mucus and absorption Location: stomach, intestines, resp. tract Pseudostratified Columnar Structure: 1 layer of tall, narrow cells appears stratified but isn’t Function: secrete mucus and propel debris out of resp. tract (cilia) Location: nasal cavity and trachea ¹ 19 20 21 Simple Epithelium  Simple cuboidal  Simple columnar  Single layer of Single layer of elongated cells cube-like cells Nuclei usually near the  Common in basement membrane at same glands and their level ducts Sometimes possess cilia Sometimes possess microvilli  Forms walls of kidney tubules Often have goblet cells Line uterus, stomach,  Covers the intestines ³ ovaries Types of Stratified Epithelial Tissues Stratified Squamous Structure: many layers of flat, tile-like cells Function: protect and acts as a barrier Location: skin, mouth, throat, esophagus Transitional Structure: special type of stratified epi. changes shape (stretched squamous, not stretched cuboidal) Function: hold fluids Location: urinary bladder ¹ 23 24 25 Types of Stratified Epithelial Tissues Stratified cuboidal 2-3 layers Cube-shaped cells Line ducts of mammary glands, sweat glands, salivary glands, and the pancreas Stratified columnar Top layer of elongated cells Cube-shaped cells in deeper layers Line part of male urethra and part of pharynx 27 28 Free Cell Surfaces Surface not in contact with other cells Smooth to reduce friction, Ex. Blood vessels Microvilli: - increase cell’s surface area - Ex. Small intestine¹ 30 Free Cell Surfaces Cilia: - move materials across cell’s surface - Ex. Trachea Goblet cells: - produce mucus - Ex. Stomach¹ 31 Cell Connections Tight junctions: - bind adjacent cells together - Ex. Intestines Desmosomes: mechanical links that bind cells¹ 32 Cell Connections Hemidesmosomes: bind cells to basement membrane Gap junctions: - small channels that allow molecules to pass between cells - allow cells to communicate¹ 33 Figure 4.2 Connective Tissue Connective Tissue ² Connective Tissue ² Connective Tissues Characteristics Cells far apart Contain large amounts of extracellular matrix Classified based on type of extracellular matrix and function Ex. Blast cells build, clast cells carve Extracellular matrix contains 3 components (in varying amounts): protein fibers, ground substance, cells¹ Ground substance: mostly water along with adhesion proteins and polysaccharide molecules 38 Connective Tissue Fiber Types Collagenous fibers Thick Elastic fibers Composed of collagen Bundles of microfibrils Great tensile strength embedded in elastin Abundant in dense CT Fibers branch Hold structures together Elastic Tendons, ligaments Vocal cords, air passages Reticular fibers Very thin collagenous fibers Highly branched Form supportive networks 3 Connective Tissue Major Cell Types Macrophages Fibroblasts Wandering cell Fixed cell Phagocytic Most common cell Important in injury or Large, star-shaped infection Produce fibers Other Blasts Mast cells Chondroblast Fixed cell Osteoblast Release heparin Hemocytoblast Release histamine3 40 Functions of Connective Tissue 1. Enclose and separate: Ex. around organs and muscles 2. Connect tissues: Ex. Tendons: connect bone to muscle Ex. Ligaments: connect bone to bone 3. Support and Movement: Ex. bones ¹ 41 Functions of Connective Tissue 4. Storage: Ex. bones store calcium and adipose tissue stores fat 5. Cushion and insulate: Ex. adipose tissue protects organs and helps conserve heat 6. Transport: Ex. Blood 7. Protect: Ex. Immune cells¹ 42 Connective Tissue ConnectiveTissue Proper: Specialized Connective Loose connective tissue Tissue: Areolar connective tissue Cartilage Adipose tissue Bone Reticular connective tissue Blood Dense connective tissue Regular Irregular Elastic³ 43 Connective Tissue Types -Loose connective tissue  Areolar connective tissue  Most widely distributed connective tissue  Soft, pliable tissue  Contains all fiber types  Can soak up excess fluid⁴ Connective Tissue Types -Loose connective tissue  Adipose tissue  Matrix is an areolar tissue in which fat globules predominate  Many cells contain large lipid deposits  Functions  Insulates the body  Protects some organs  Serves as a site of fuel storage⁴ Connective Tissue Types -Loose connective tissue  Reticular connective tissue  Delicate network of interwoven fibers  Forms stroma (internal supporting network) of lymphoid organs  Lymph nodes  Spleen  Bone marrow⁴ 47 48 Connective Tissue Types  Dense connective tissue  Main matrix element is collagen fibers  Regular, Irregular and Elastic  Cells are fibroblasts  Examples  Tendon – attach muscle to bone  Ligaments – attach bone to bone⁴ 50 Specialized Connective Tissue Types Cartilage Type of connective tissue Composed of chondrocytes Contains collagen Withstands compressions Provides support, flexibility, strength ¹ 52 Types of Cartilage Hyaline cartilage Location: covers ends of bones Structure: some collagen fibers Function: reduces friction (cushion) Fibrocartilage Location: between vertebra Structure: lots of collagen fibers Function: can withstand compression ¹ 53 Types of Cartilage Elastic cartilage Location: ear and tip of nose Structure: elastic fibers Function: can recoil ¹ 54 Bone Hard connective tissue 2 types: compact and spongy Composed of osteocytes¹ 57 Blood Liquid connective tissue Erythrocytes, leukocytes, platelets Transport food, oxygen, waste, hormones¹ 59 Muscular Tissue Muscular Tissue Muscle type Nucleus/i Nucleus/i location Striated Skeletal (most muscle) many peripheral Yes Cardiac (heart) 1 centrally Yes Smooth (organs) 1 centrally No¹ 62 Skeletal Muscle Cardiac Muscle Table Art 4.11b Smooth Muscle Table Art 4.11c Nervous Tissue Nervous Tissue Consist of neurons or nerve cells Found in brain, spinal cord, and peripheral nerves Controls and coordinates body movements Includes axons, dendrites, cell bodies¹ 67 68 Epithelial Membranes Types of Membranes There are four (4) types of epithelial membranes: 1.

Substitution of dead cells for viable cells Regeneration: Cells of same type develop (no scar) Replacement: Cells of a different type develop (scar) ¹ 78 Inflammation Occurs when tissues are damaged Signals the body’s defenses (white blood cells) to destroy foreign materials and damaged cells so repair can occur. Chemical mediators: - released after injury - cause dilation of blood vessels¹ 79 Symptoms of Inflammation 1. Redness: blood vessels dilate 2. Heat: due to increased blood flow 3. Swelling: from water and proteins 4. Pain: nerve endings are stimulated by damage and swelling¹ 5.
