Epithelium
1. Greek: epi – “upon”, thele – “teat, nipple”
2. Avascular tissue that covers body surfaces, lines
body cavities, and forms glands (endocrine and
exocrine).
3. Composed of sheets of closely aggregated cells, of
one or more layers thick, sitting upon a basement
membrane.
4. Creates a barrier between “external” environment
and underlying connective tissue.
5. Polarized with a free surface ( apical surface ),
generally facing the external environment or lumen,
and a bound surface ( basal surface ), facing the
basement membrane.
6. Epithelial tissues are categorized by the number of
cell-layers and the shape of their cells.
7. Exocrine glands are categorized by the arrangement
of their duct portion (branched or not) and the
shape of their secretory portions.

Learning Objectives (cont.)
- Distinguish the basic differences between the parenchyma and stroma of a gland.
- Understand that exocrine glands can be classified according to four features: the secretory portion’s shape (alveolar/acinar vs. tubular), the duct system (simple vs. compound), the nature of the secretion (serous vs. mucous), and the mode of cell secretion (merocrine, apocrine, holocrine).
- Continue to appreciate how structure relates to function.

simple squamous epithelium consists of a single layer of flattened (squamous) cells; specialized types
include endothelium (lines the interior of vessels and heart chambers) and mesothelium (lines the exterior of
certain organs and body cavities)

the center of the slide shows a glomerulus (capillary network) of a nephron, which compose the parenchyma
(functional tissue) of the kidney (~ 1 million nephrons / kidney)
using a trichrome stain,
blue shows collagen of the
basement membrane of
the simple squamous
epithelium tissue that
forms the outer layer of
Bowman’s capsule
the basement membrane
is composed of two layers:
the basal lamina
(with type IV collagen)
and the reticular lamina
(with type III collagen)

distinguishing the type of epithelium (and apical modifications) will be important later on when discussing the
kidney in order to distinguish the different tubules (e.g., collecting duct vs. proximal convoluted tubule)

lines small ducts as seen here
the nuclei of the cuboidal
epithelial cells are round and
generally located in the center of
the cell
this is still a simple epithelium
because all of the cells are
directly attached to the basement
membrane (thin blue line)

the purple/pink border is glycocalyx (glycolipids/glycoproteins) coating the microvilli on the apical
surface of the epithelium, giving a brush or striated border appearance; notice that in light microscopy
individual microvilli cannot be seen – they are only seen as a collective border – while individual cilia or
stereocilia can be seen (none are seen here but will be seen later)

cilia vs. microvilli : cilia are larger, cytoplasmic processes containing microtubules, while microvilli are
short, cytoplasmic projections containing actin filaments; while it may be possible to distinguish individual
cilia in light microscopy, this is not possible with microvilli
cilia

surface of the
simple columnar
epithelium
the folds of the tissue
can make it difficult to
tell if the epithelium is
simple or stratified;
always look at the least
folded (thinnest) area
when categorizing the
tissue type
