Chapter 4: Organization at the Tissue Level

Tissues are collections of cells that serve a collective purpose

Collections of tissues form organs

Socrative app – course 701439

?1. What is your name

? 2. Name 4 types of tissue.


An Introduction to Tissues

TissuesStructures with discrete structural and

functional properties

Tissues in combination form organs, such as

the heart or liver

Organs can be grouped into 11 organ systems

? 3. List the 11 organ systems


4-1 Four Types of Tissue

Tissue Are collections of cells and cell products that

perform specific, limited functions

Four types of tissue

1. Epithelial tissue

2. Connective tissue

3. Muscle tissue

4. Neural tissue


4-1 Four Types of TissueEpithelial Tissue

Covers exposed surfaces

Lines internal passageways

Forms glands

Connective Tissue Fills internal spaces Supports other tissues Transports materials Stores energy


4-1 Four Types of TissueMuscle Tissue

Specialized for contraction Skeletal muscle, heart muscle, and walls of

hollow organs

Neural Tissue Carries electrical signals from one part of the

body to another


4-2 Epithelial Tissue

Epithelia Layers of cells covering internal or external

surfaces

Glands Structures that produce secretions



Characteristics of Epithelia

Cellularity (cell junctions)

** Cell membrane features

Polarity (apical and basal surfaces)

** think apex (top; peak) and basement (below)

Attachment (basement membrane or basal lamina)

Avascularity

Functions of Epithelial Tissue

1. Provide Physical Protection

2. Control Permeability

3. Provide Sensation

4. Produce Specialized Secretions (glandular

epithelium)


4-2 Epithelial TissueSpecializations of Epithelial Cells

1. Move fluids over the epithelium (protection)

2. Move fluids through the epithelium (permeability)

3. Produce secretions (protection and messengers)


? 4. What are 4 functions of

epithelial cell?



Intercellular Connections

Support and communication

CAMs (cell adhesion molecules) Transmembrane proteins

Intercellular cement Proteoglycans

Hyaluronan (hyaluronic acid) Glycosaminoglycans



Intercellular Connections

Cell junctions

Form bonds with other cells or extracellular

material

Tight Junctions Between two plasma membranes

Adhesion belt attaches to terminal web

Prevents passage of water and solutes

Isolates wastes in the lumen (open space

down the center of a tube)


Figure 4-2b Cell Junctions

Tight junction

Adhesion belt

A tight junction is formed by the fusion of the outer layers of two plasma membranes. Tight junctions prevent the diffusion of fluids and solutes betweenthe cells. A continuous adhesion belt lies deep to the tight junction. This belt is tied to the microfilaments of the terminal web.

Terminal web

Interlockingjunctional

proteins



Gap Junctions Allow rapid communication

Are held together by channel proteins

(junctional proteins, connexons)

Allow ions to pass

Coordinate contractions in heart muscle


Figure 4-2c Cell Junctions

Embedded proteins(connexons)

Gap junctions permit the free diffusion of ions and small molecules between two cells.



Desmosomes

CAMs, dense areas, and intercellular cement

Spot desmosomes (“spot weld”)Tie cells together Allow bending and twisting

HemidesmosomesAttach cells to the basal lamina

? 5. What types of intercellular connections are used to ‘glue’

epithelial cells together?



Attachment to the Basement Membrane Clear layer (lamina lucida)

Thin layer Secreted by epitheliaBarrier to proteins

Dense layer (lamina densa)Thick fibersProduced by connective tissueStrength and filtration



Epithelial Maintenance and Repair

Epithelia are replaced by division of

germinative cells (stem cells)

Near basement membrane


4-3 Classification of Epithelia Singular = Epithelium; Plural = Epithelia

Classes of Epithelia

1. Based on shape Squamous epithelia — thin and flat

Cuboidal epithelia — square shaped

Columnar epithelia — tall, slender rectangles

2. Based on layers Simple epithelium — single layer of cells

Stratified epithelium — several layers of cells

Glandular EpitheliaEndocrine glands

Release hormones Into interstitial fluid

No ducts (adrenal glands, ovaries, testes)

Exocrine glandsProduce secretions

Onto epithelial surfaces

Through ducts (sweat, salivary, mammary)



Glandular Epithelia

Modes of Secretion

1. Merocrine secretion

2. Apocrine secretion

3. Holocrine secretion


4-3 Classification of Epithelia Merocrine Secretion

Produced in Golgi apparatus Released by vesicles (exocytosis) For example, sweat glands

Apocrine Secretion Produced in Golgi apparatus Released by shedding cytoplasm For example, mammary glands



Holocrine Secretion Released by cells bursting, killing gland cells

Gland cells replaced by stem cells

For example, sebaceous glands

Cell division replaceslost cells

Cells produce secretion,increasing in size

Cells burst, releasingcytoplasmic contents


4-3 Classification of EpitheliaGlandular Epithelia

Types of SecretionsSerous glands

Watery secretions

Mucous glands Secrete mucins

Mixed exocrine glands Both serous and mucous


4-3 Classification of EpitheliaGlandular Epithelia

Gland StructureUnicellular glands

Mucous (goblet) cells are the only unicellular exocrine glands

Scattered among epithelia

For example, in intestinal lining



Gland Structure Multicellular glands

1. Structure of the duct Simple (undivided) Compound (divided)

2. Shape of secretory portion of the gland Tubular (tube shaped) Alveolar or acinar (blind pockets)

3. Relationship between ducts and glandular areas Branched (several secretory areas sharing one duct)
