Histology
W.U. : Using your medical dictionary, what
do you think Histology is the study of?
Histology
The study of different types of tissues
 Tissue: Cells working together in
functionally related groups

Histology

Separated into four major categories based on
their function and the embryonic tissue of
origin
Tissue
Function
Embryonic Tissue
Epithelial
Cover &
Protection
Ectoderm, endoderm,
and mesoderm
Connective
Support
Mesoderm
Muscle
Movement &
contraction
Signaling &
communication
Mesoderm
Nervous
Ectoderm
Epithelial Tissue

Location:
◦ Lines nearly every cavity and surface of the human
body
◦ Form glands

Function:
◦ Protect the tissues they cover
◦ Regulate gas and nutrient exchange
◦ Secrete substances such as sweat, hormones,
mucus, and enzymes
◦ Provide sensation with the environment
Epithelial

Classification:
◦ First name of tissue
indicates the number of
layers
◦ Simple: One layer of
cells
◦ Stratified: More than
one layer
of cells
Epithelial

Classification
◦ Last name of tissue
describes the SHAPE of
cells
◦ Squamous: cells wider
than tall
◦ Cubodial: cells are as
wide as tall, as in “cubes”
◦ Columnar: cells are
taller than they are wide,
like columns
Epilthelial

Put it all together…
◦ Simple squamous
◦ Simple columnar
◦ Stratified cubodial

Special epithelial tissues
◦ Pseudostratified
◦ Transitional
Epithelial

Special characteristics:
◦ Cells are packed tightly together, forming a
protective layer around organs
◦ High capacity for regeneration
◦ Produce fluids for lubricating tissues and
organs
◦ Avascular: No capillaries that directly nourish
the cells
 Cells get what they need through diffusion of
nutrients through the basement membrane
Simple Squamous Epithelium
Single layer of flat cells with disc-shaped
nuclei
 Function:

◦ Passage of materials by passive diffusion and
filtration
◦ Secrete lubricating substances in serosae
Simple Squamous Epithelium

Location
◦
◦
◦
◦
Renal corpuscles
Alveoli of lungs
Lining of heart, blood, and lymphatic vessels
Lining of ventral body cavity
Simple Cuboidal Epithelium
Single layer of cube-like cells with large,
spherical nuclei
 Function:

◦ Secretion and absorption
Simple Cuboidal Epithelium

Location:
◦ Kidney tubules
◦ Secretory portions of small glands
◦ Ovary and Thyroid follicles
Simple Columnar Epithelium

Single layer of column-shaped cells with
oval nuclei
◦ Some may have cilia

Function:
◦ Absorption
◦ Secretion of mucus, enzymes, and other
substances
◦ Ciliated type propels mucus or reproductive
cells by ciliary action
Simple Columnar

Location:
◦ Non-ciliated: lines digestive tract, gallbladder,
ducts of some glands
◦ Ciliated form: lines small bronchi, uterine
tubes, uterus
Connective Tissues

Most abundant tissue type in the body
◦ Ex: blood, bone, cartilage, tendons, ligaments…
Made up of fibers and extracellular
components in the embedded in fluid
 Types of Connective Tissues

◦
◦
◦
◦
Loose Connective Tissue
Dense Connective Tissue
Cartilage
Other Tissues
Connective Tissue

Function:
◦
◦
◦
◦
◦
Protect
Store energy
Transport
Insulate
Connect all body
tissues
Loose Connective Tissue

Areolar:
◦ Binds cells and fibers together, allows movement
◦ Found under skin, surrounds capillaries

Adipose:
◦ Fat, stores nutrients, insulates, protects organs
◦ Found under skin, around kidneys, within abdomen

Reticular:
◦ Allows for structure and flow of substances
◦ Found in lymph nodes, bone marrow, spleen
Dense Connective Tissue

Regular:
◦ Make up tendon and ligaments, tightly organized bundles
of collagen
◦ Found in tendons, ligaments, fascia around muscles

Irregular:
◦ Make up the dermis, tight bundles of collagen that are
unorganized
◦ Found in the dermis of skin, submucosa of digestive tract
Cartilage

Hyaline:
◦ Provides support while still being pliable, most abundant
form
◦ Found in the ends of long bones, nose, trachea, and
larnyx

Elastic
◦ Provides support while still able to stretch
◦ Supports external ear, epiglottis
Cartilage

Fibrocartilage:
◦ Provides strong support and handles heavy
pressure
◦ Found in intervertebral discs, pubic symphysis,
discs of knee joints
Other Tissues…

Bone
◦ Support, hard tissue of collagen fibers and
calcium surrounding osteocytes

Blood
◦ Tissue that contains red blood cells, proteins,
and plasma
Muscle Tissue
Cells are extremely long and contain
protein fibers capable of contracting
 Separated into 3 main types:

◦ Skeletal muscle tissue
◦ Smooth muscle tissue
◦ Cardiac muscle tissue
Skeletal Muscle Tissue

Voluntary muscle
◦ Can be contracted voluntarily
◦ Function in movement and maintenance of
posture
◦ Visible striations

Makes up the muscles that are attached to
our skeleton
Smooth Muscle Tissue

Involuntary muscle
◦ Muscle does not contract voluntarily
◦ Lines most of the organs of the body
◦ No visible striations

Found in:
◦
◦
◦
◦
◦
GI Tract
Respiratory Tract
Blood vessels
Bladder
Uterus
Cardiac Muscle
Heart, extremely dense, strong tissue
 Involuntary
 Large number of mitochondria to provide energy
for the continuous contracting of the heart
 Striated like muscle tissue

Nervous Tissue
Found in the brain, spinal cord, and nerves
 Consists of 2 main cells

◦ Neurons
◦ Neuroglia cells

Responsible for communication
