Which features are typical for epithelium/epithelial cells?:

Glands:

An example of unicellular gland is the goblet cell

Endocrine glands are ductless

In merocrine glands the secretory granules leave the cell by exocytosis

glands develop from adipose tissue

Glands develop from connective tissue

conective tissue proper:

It originates from mesenchyme

Fibroblast are active cells, fibrocytes are quiescent cells

The surface of the plasma cell contains receptors for IgE

tropocollagen is monomer unit compose of 3 alpha-chains

Fibronectin is component of glycoaminoglycan

The extracellular matrix:

is divided into ground substance and fibers

Tropocollagen is aggregated into fibers In cytoplasm of cell

Reticular fibers are composed of type 3 collagen

Hyaluronic acid (hyaluronan) is a type of GAG

The main component of elanuin fibers is type 4 collagen

Adipose tissue – find true sentences

there are two types. White (unilocular) brown (multiocular)

There are no blood vessels in unilocular tissue

Cells of multiocular adipose tissue contain abundant brown mitochondria

lipid droplets of adipocytes are enveloped by intermediate filaments

Mitochondria of unilocular adipocyte is thermogenin

Cartilage

Derive from mesenchyme

Isogenous groups and territorial matrix from chondrons

The matrix of hyaline cartilage contains mainly collagen type 2

is devoitd of glycoaminoglycans

Only fibrocartliage possesses perichondrium

Find true sentence:

Zonula occludens are located in the most upper part of the cell (AKA tight junction)

Cadherin is present within zonula adherens

Every cell in stratified epithelium is connected by basal lamina

connexons are associated with nexuses

Occludin and claudin are proteins involved in tight junctions

Find correct descriptions:

Epithelial tissue – large amount of ECM

Connective tissue – ground substance contains hyaluronic acid

Skeletal fibers and cardiac cells - sarcomere

Cartilage drives from mesenchyme

Elastic cartilage – does not contain perichondrium

Synthesis of collagen in fibroblast:

Include a lot of posttransitional modifications

Depends on O2....Fe2+ and ascorbic acid

Aggregation of tropocollagen into collagen fibers take place inside the cytoplasm

Nonhelical propeptides are present in collagen fibrils to protect its structure

Occurs in intracellular and extracellular enviroment

Find true answer regarding connective tissue:

Fibroblast and fibrocytes are residents cells

Leukocytes, mastocytes are wandering cells

Hyaluronic acid can bind monomers to form proteoglycans aggregates

Reticular fibers consist mainly type 1 collagen

collagen contains unusal amino acids desmosine and isodesmosine

Choose correct pairs: (single choice)

Psuedostratified ciliated – epididymal duct

Simple squamos – skin (skin → stratified squamos)

Stratified squamos keratinized – esophagus

Urothelium - urethra

Holocrine glands – find true statements: (single)

The secretory granules leave the cell by exocytosis

Their examples are sebaceous glands

Are always unicellular

Are always present between epithelial cells

the secretory product is discharged together without parts of the apical cytoplasm
