19
Q

“solidarty notch in the eyebrow” “non healing” “papilla nodule” with blue tint, a virus causes the merkel cell to become cancercous, head, neck and eyebrow, very aggresive and lymph nodes involvement

merkel cell carcinoma

20
Q

list the 4 epidermal appendages

A

eccrine sweat glands
apocrine glands
hair follicles
sebaceous glands

21
Q

thermoregulatory, most abundant on palms soles and axilla, cholingeric

A

eccrine sweat glands

22
Q

pathology of eccrine sweat glands

23
Q

“heat rash” “newborn with pinpoint papilla”

24
Q

outgrowth of hair follicle, viscous sweat, starts functioning in puberty, adrenergic

axilla, areolae, anogenital region, external auditory canal, eyelids

A

apocrine glands

25
the greatest density of the sebaceous glands are located
on the face and scalp
26
nonfollicular sebaceous gland on eyelid
meibomian gland
27
nonfollicular sebaceous gland on foreskin
tyson's gland
28
nonfollicular sebaceous gland on lip
fordyce spots
29
components of ___ are: glycerides, free fatty acids, wax esters, cholesterol esters, cholesterol
sebum
30
functions of sebum are: - - -
reduces water loss from the skin surface protects the skin from infection by bacteria and fungi contributes to body odor
31
production is increased of sebum by __
androgens
32
"multiple yellow papilla with central umbilication" singular, not grouped together like vesicles
sebaceous hyperplasia
33
dimp in the center
central umbilication
34
allergies, anaphylaxis, many IgE receptors
mast cells
35
``` granules of __ cells contain: histamine heparin chemotactice factors tryptase chymase prostaglandins ```
mast cells
36
activation is direct by physical or medications, cross linking of IgE receptors
mast cells
37
mast cell pathology that is in children, they itch ALOT
urticaria pigmentosa
38
mast cell pathology that is in adutls, singular solidarty lesions
mastocytoma
39
many type of cells in subQ
lipocytes (adipocytes)
40
functions of subQ
buoyancy energy repository hormone conversions leptin production
41
pathology with subQ layer
panniculitis
42
fat under skin is calcified and thickening and hardening, punch biopsy is needed
panniculitis
