Lecture 9 Flashcards

1
Q

How are glands formed?

A

Growth signal received by Epithelium.
Profileration of cells occur.
After the profileration of cells occur, the epithelial cells invade the connective space via Extracellular protein degradation enzymes produced which creates a space in the connective tissue.

Q

How does Holocrine secretion work?

A

Secretoory cells fills up with granules
Organelles degenerate and die off
Plasma membrane breaks and content is released
Cytoplasm is lost

Q

Difference between endocytosis and exocytosis

A

Endocytosis is the engulfing of molecules inside the cell via vesicle formation whereas exocytosis is the release of molecules out of the cell.

Q

Role of glycolisation

A
  • Aid protein folding
    -Prevents digestion by intracellular proteases
    -Prevents lipid digestion by intracellular lipases
    Cell recognition
    Role on cell to extracellular matric attachment

Q

What are the cell functions via secretion

A
  • Adhesion to substrates and neighbouring cells
  • Mobility of cells
  • Communication with neighbouring cells
  • Contact inhibition of movement and division
  • Cell survival

Q

Where are simple acinar found?

A

Urethra. Secretory portion is outpouching of the epithelial surface

17
Q

Where are simple branched acinar found?

A

Stomach. Enlarged secreting mucus cells in the cardia. The duct is relatively short

18
Q

Where are compound tubular found?

A

Dueodenum. These are the submucosal glands of Brunner that also secret mucus

19
Q

Where are compound acinar found?

A

Pancreas. The alveolar shaped cells are pyramid shaped and serous secreting

20
Q

What causes epithelial cells to respond and move when glands are made?

A

Immature fibroblasts release Basic FG10

21
Q

How are tubules elongated?

A

Growth factor 1 active (causes elongation), Growth factor 2 inactive.

22
Q

How are tubules branched?

A

Growth factor 1 inactive, growth factor 2 active.

23
Q

Compound tubuloacinar

A

Submandibular salivary glands. Both serous and mucinous secretions. Have serous end-caps
