42
Q

A

BMP4 and FGF

43
Q

What allows ectoderm to form the neural plate?

Describe the BMP4 concentration gradient and why its important

A

Noggin, Chordin, Follistatin are expressed by the notochord and inhibits BMP4.

Low BMP4 induces neural plate
Intermediate BMP4 induces neural crest
High BMP4 induces epidermis

The concentration of BMP4 is low in the middle and increases laterally to the outside so that each layer develops correctly.

A

1901 derm disorders saw the segmentation lines

47
Q

What holds all the cells of the epidermis together?

A

desmosomes and hemidesmosomes. They change and are lost by change in pH.

48
Q

Why don’t melanocytes have desmosomes?

A

They migrate- keep moving through cells- at basale level

49
Q

melanosomes -

A

Kinesin transport melanin granules “melanosomes” along cytoplasmic processes of melanocyte until it makes contact with a keratinocyte. Keratinocyte phagocytose melanocyte processes in order to take up the melanin granules.
the granules then transported away from keratinocyte interior by dynein.

if you have problem with NE or adrenergic response?

A

produce too much sweat or not enough sweat

Produce too much sweat or not enough

52
Q

If you have someone who stinks really bad when they sweat what gland can you associate it with?

A

Apocrine- high protein stored in lumen- bacteria
-large protein in lumen- PUBES - NE-
Develop during PUBERTY

  • Eccrine doesn’t smell b/c it has antibacterial glycoprotein granules
  • small antibacterial lumen-ACH-3celltypes-merocrine-coiled tubular
53
Q

3 cells of eccrine sweat glands

A

Clear- make sweat->intercellular canaliculi>small lumen
(increased mitochondria/glycogen)
Dark- make antibac glycoprotein granules close to lumen
(increased RER/golgi)
Myoepithelial- contract for secretion

54
Q

What embryological structure inhibits BMP4? what does it release? why important? what is the gradient?

A

Notochord releases noggin, chordin, follistatin inhibiting BMP4 close toward center
-established gradient has low center BMP4 and increasing BMP4 away from center
Important because bmp4 induces development of structures based on concentration.
Low BMP4- neural plate
Med- Neural crest
High- Epidermis

55

Nasal cavity
Inner ear
Retina

57

A

Basal Cell- most common
Squamous cell- 2nd most common
Malignant melanoma- not as common- Most serious

58
Q

PSORIASIS

A

Normal travel time 50-60 days

rapid proliferation is about 7 days in psoriasis

59
Q

Where vitD production?

Where mitotically active?

A

vitD- basale-spinosum

mitosis-basale

60
Q

Stratum granulosum

A

1-3 cell layers thick
Have nuclei
Squamous
Keratinophyalin granules give it the grainy look

61
Q

Intermediate filament associated proteins- where are they? how do they work? what do they do? How do you identify them on TEM?

A

Filaggrin proteins inside Keratohyaline granules- Cause keratin tonofilaments to aggregate into tonofibrils

look like black tadpoles starting to form black fiber tails

62
Q

What creates the water barrier of the epidermis?

A

Lamellar bodies next to plasma membranes secrete (exocytosis) into space between Granulosum and corneum
to create a barrier

granulosum cells secrete the lamellar bodies and the membrane is setup just deep to the corneum layer

pro-barrier lipids-lipid enzymes and proteases
