what is thicker ? epidermis or dermis?
dermis
dermis supports the epidermis and helps bind it to the subcutaneous tissue, true or false?
true
- Connective tissue that supports the epidermis and binds it to the
subcutaneous tissue (hypodermis) - Thickness varies (up to 4-5mm) (eyelids the dermis is very thin but on your back the dermis is very thick)
- Surface is irregular with projections known as dermal papille
- Dermal papillae
- Interdigitate with epidermal projections
- Rete pegs
Dermis
dermis surface is irregular with projections known as ________
dermal papillae
this structure interdigitate with epidermal projections (rete pegs)
dermal papillae
rete pegs are in the ______ and dermal papillae are in the _______
rete pegs are in the Epidermis and dermal papillae are in the Dermis
rete pegs are projections from the epidermis that interdigitate with what dermal component ? when these two structures interdigitate they hold the dermis and epidermis together
rete pegs from the epidermis work with the dermal papillae from the dermis
The basement membrane is between the stratum basal of the epidermis and papillary layer of the dermis
stratum basal of EPIDERMIS
basement layer
papillary layer of DERMIS
is the epidermis avascular ?
yes
The basement membrane is between the stratum basal of the epidermis and papillary layer of the dermis
stratum basal of EPIDERMIS
basement layer
papillary layer of DERMIS
how do the keratinocytes receive nutrients if the epidermis is avascular ?
- Nutrients for keratinocytes diffuse into the avascular epidermis from the dermis vasculature through the basement membrane
BULLOUS PEMPHIGOID
- Autoimmune disorder
- Formation of blisters at the
epidermal/dermal junction
BULLS (bullous) running through the hills between the dermis and the epidermis can give you BULLOUS PEMPHIGOID
youll get Blister Bumps called Bullous Pemphigoid if the bumps between the epidermis and dermis Buldge
the thickest skin is at the palms and soles of feet and they have ridges called ______ ridges
Dermal ridges
excuse me, your dermal ridges are showing
Dermal ridges
- Found in thick skin
- Parallel arrangement with dermal
papillae in-between - Form a distinctive pattern
- Finger prints
a parallel arrangement with dermal papillae in between and form a distinctive pattern which are your finger prints
Dermal ridges
a distinctive pattern of dermal ridges = fingerprints
stratum corneum = top layer of epidermis
papillary layer
most superficial layer of dermis, the top
papillary layer = top layer of dermis
stratum corneum = top layer of epidermis
- Composed of loose connective tissue, fibroblasts, mast cells, and macrophages
- Embedded in a gelatinous matrix (ground substance)
- Anchoring fibrils of type VII collagen insert into the basal lamina
- Collagen accounts for >70% of skin’s dry weight
papillary layer
dermis, bone, tendon, fascia, sclera, IV discs
which type of collagen?
1
hyaline and elastic cartilage
which type of collagen?
2
smooth muscle, arteries, lung, uterus, kidney
which type of collagen?
3
skin
cartilage
smooth muscle of arteries
collage?
1 skin
2 cartilage
3 smooth muscle of arteries
dermis / tendon / sclera / IV disc?
hyaline and elastic cartilage ?
lung / uterus / kidney ?
collagen?
1 dermis / tendon / sclera / IV disc
2 hyaline and elastic cartilage
3 lung / uterus / kidney
Reticular layer of dermis
thicker layer composed of dense connective tissue (type 1)
network of elastic fibers (elastin)
- Major cell types
*Fibroblasts
Produce Collagen and Elastin - Macrophages
Help fight infection - Mast cells
Specialized secretory cells
Produce chemical mediators of inflammation
which layer of dermis ?!! hint - this is the area of dense Collagen and Elastin
Reticular layer
reticular layer sounds like it has elastin and type 1
collagen
Reticular layer
Dense connective tissue
papillary layer
loose connective tissue
I think papillary layer has similar cells but this one is dense
Reticular layer of dermis
- Site of hair follicles and sebaceous glands
- Network of blood and lymphatic vessels
- Rich supply of nerves
- Effector (motor) nerves to dermal structures
- Affector (sensory) nerves around hair follicles
which layer of skin?
Rich supply of nerves
* Effector (motor) nerves to dermal structures
* Affector (sensory) nerves around hair follicles
Reticular layer of dermis
