Lab 4: Epithelia and Glands - IUSM 2016, Lecture notes of Human Biology

A lab manual from Indiana University School of Medicine (IUSM) for a course on Epithelia and Glands. It includes slides and instructions for identifying various types of epithelia and glands, such as simple squamous, simple columnar, stratified cuboidal, stratified columnar, transitional, and mucous and serous acini. The document also covers topics like microvilli, stereocilia, cilia, merocrine, apocrine, and holocrine secretion.

What you will learn

  • How can you distinguish between simple squamous and simple columnar epithelium?
  • What are the different types of epithelia covered in this lab manual?
  • What is the difference between stratified cuboidal and stratified columnar epithelium?
  • What are the differences between merocrine, apocrine, and holocrine secretion?

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.)

  1. Distinguish the basic differences between the parenchyma and stroma of a gland.
  2. 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).
  3. 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)

(functional tissue) of the kidney (~ 1 million nephrons / kidney)

using a trichrome stain,

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

can make it difficult to

tell if the epithelium is

simple or stratified;

always look at the least
