Tissues & Homeostasis
• 4 basic types of tissues in human body
contribute to homeostasis by providing
diverse functions including
• protection
• support
• communication among cells
• resistance to disease
• & many more
Definition
• a tissue is a group of similar cells that
usually have a common embryonic origin &
function together to carry out specialized
activities

Tissues
• their structure & properties are influenced
by factors such as:
▫ nature of the extracellular material
surrounding tissue cells
▫ type of connections between cells
Classification of Tissues
1. Epithelial
▫ covers body surfaces & lines hollow
organs, cavities, & ducts
▫ forms glands
2. Connective
3. Muscle
4. Nerve
Functions of Epithelial Tissues
• protection
• absorption
• filtration
• excretion
• secretion
• sensory reception
Epithelial Tissue
• 5 distinguishing characteristics
1. polarity
2. specialized contacts
3. supported by CT (connective tissue)
4. avascular but innervated
5. ability to regenerate
Polarity
• apical & basal surfaces
▫ differ in structure & function
• most apical surfaces contain
microvilli, or cilia
• basal surface has thin
supporting sheet called basal
lamina
▫ selective filter
▫ scaffolding for cells to migrate
along
Specialized Contacts
• epithelial cells form
continuous sheets
▫ not glandular
epithelium
▫ lateral cell surfaces
see desmosomes &
tight jcts (keeps
things from
diffusing between
cells)
Supported by CT
• all epithelial sheets
rest on CT
• reticular lamina:
just below basal
lamina
• basal lamina +
reticular lamina =
basement
membrane
Avascular / Innervated
• epithelium contains NO blood vessels
▫ nutrients, O2 diffuse from underlying CT
vessels
• has nerve fibers
Regeneration
• epithelial cells will reproduce rapidly
when neighboring cells damaged or
destroyed
▫ as long as necessary nutrients can get to
epithelium
Classification of Epithelia
• classified according to 2 characteristics:
1. # of layers
• single layer = simple
• multiple layers = stratified
• single layer that looks like multiple =
pseudostratified
2. cell shape
• squamous
• cuboidal
• columnar
Squamous Cells
• flattened, scalelike
• protect
Cuboidal Cells
• boxlike, cubes
• secretion, absorption
Columnar Cells
• tall, column shaped cells
• secretion
Simple Epithelium
1 layer of cells, often in sheets
functions:
filtration
secretion: production & release of
substances (sweat, mucus)
• absorption: intake of fluids or other
substances
•
•
•
•
Simple Squamous Epithelium
• cells flattened laterally
• surface view: tiled floor
• cross-section: fried egg
• thin, permeable  where rapid diffusion
important
▫ Lungs
▫ Kidneys
Endothelium
• simple squamous epithelium that lines
lymphatic and blood vessels and lines the
cardiac atria and ventricles
• capillaries consist only of 1 endothelial
cells thick (site of gas exchange)
Mesothelium
• epithelium found in serous membranes
▫ line ventral body cavities
▫ cover organs in ventral cavities
Simple Cuboidal Epithelium
• square cells with round, central nuclei in a
sheet
• secretion
• absorption
• forms walls of small ducts of glands &
kidney tubules
Simple Columnar Epithelium
• single layer, tall, closely packed cells
• absorption
• secretion
• line digestive tract where cells have 2
modifications:
1. dense microvilli on apical surface
2. glands that secret mucus (Goblet
cells)/intestinal juices
Pseudostratified Columnar Epithelium
• cells vary in height
• nuclei at variable heights
• ciliated or nonciliated
• all cells rest on BM (basement membrane)
but not all reach free surface
▫ short cells replace tall ones if damaged
Stratified Epithelium
• 2 or more cell layers
• cells are generated from below
• more durable than simple epithelium
• protection: major function
• type of stratified epithelium determined
by cell shape of top layer
Stratified Squamous Epithelium
• found in areas subjected to wear and tear
▫ upper layers rubbed away
▫ lower cells replace
• top cells are squamous
• as cells pushed up further from BM fewer
nutrients reach them  die  lipids from
atrophied cells add some water proofing
• keratinized/not keratinized
▫ keratin: tough protein
Stratified Squamous Epithelium
• upper layers
contain keratin:
tough, fibrous
protein that
protects underlying
tissues from heat,
microbes,
chemicals
• found: skin
• found: lining
mouth (buccal
mucosa) &
esophagus
• protect underlying
tissues from wear &
tear and from
invasion by
microbes
• Keratinized
• Nonkeratinized
Stratified Cuboidal Epithelium
• rare
• found in some ducts of larger glands
▫ mammary glands, some sweat glands
• 2 layers of cuboidal cells
Stratified Columnar Epithelium
• limited distribution in body
▫ male urethra
▫ some glandular ducts
▫ @junction between 2 other types of
epithelial cells
Glandular Epithelium
• gland: 1 or more cells that make & secrete
a product called a secretion
• secretions are aqueous solutions
▫ composition varies by gland
Secretion
• active process of gland releasing its
product (also called secretion)
2 Classes of Glands
1. Endocrine glands (ductless glands)
▫ internal secretion: cells exocytose 
extracellular space  capillaries  target
cells  prompts some response in cell
▫ hormones: messenger chemicals
2. Exocrine glands (glands with ducts)
▫ external secretion
▫ secrete product onto surfaces or into body
cavities
Types of Exocrine Glands
Unicellular
• Mucous cells & Goblet
cells

tract, respiratory tract
Multicellular
• 2 parts:
1. Duct
2. Secretory cells

forming fibrous
capsule  divides
it into lobes

Tissue Repair
• 3 phases:
1. Inflammation
2. Organization
3. Regeneration/Fibrosis
Inflammation
• nonspecific reaction
• injury causes tissue cells, macrophages, mast
cells  inflammatory chemicals  capillaries
dilate & become more permeable 
neutrophils, monocytes & plasma fluid
(clotting factors, abys) enter injured area 
form clot stops bleeding, holds wound
together, isolating injured area giving some
protection to infection scab forms
Inflammation
• Characterized by area of:
• redness (rubor)
• swelling
• +/- pain (dolor)
• warmth
Organization Phase of Tissue Repair
• begins during inflammatory pahse
• blood clot replaced by granulation tissue:a
friable, delicate tissue
▫ capillaries
▫ fibroblasts collagen, growth factors 
when phase complete become inactive or
apoptosis
▫ macrophages phagocytize injured cells/cell
debris, clot
Organization Phase of Tissue Repair
Regeneration & Fibrosis Phase
• fibrous tissue beneath scab matures 
epithelium regenerate until it resembles
surrounding skin
• +/- scar tissue
Injury Below Skin
• skin surface not breached
• usually involves infection (pimple, sore
throat)
▫ minor : heals by regeneration only
▫ more serious  clot formation possibly
scarring
Scar Tissue
• permanent fibrous patch
• if wound was extensive  replaced only with
scar tissue does not replace function of normal
tissue
• adhesions: scar tissue that forms around
irritated organs in abdominopelvic cavity or
w/in hollow organs
Healing in Different Tissues
• heal well: epithelium, areolar CT, dense irregular
CT, bone, blood forming tissue
• moderate capacity to heal: smooth muscle, dense
regular CT
• poor healing: skeletal muscle, cartilage
• NO healing: cardiac muscle, nerve tissue
