Histology

The study of tissues.

Epithelial Tissue Qualities

Polarity, cell junctions, avascularity, and regeneration.

Connective Tissue Matrix

Composed of ground substance and fibers.

Resident Cells of Connective Tissue

Fibroblasts, fibrocyte, adipocytes, chondrocytes, osteocytes, mast cells, fixed macrophages.

Wandering Cells of Connective Tissue

Macrophages, neutrophils, basophils, eosinophils, lymphocytes.

Connective Tissue Fibers

Collagen, elastic, and reticular fibers.

Hematopoietic Tissue

Red bone marrow responsible for blood cell formation.

Epidermis

Outer layer of skin composed of keratinized stratified squamous epithelium.

Dermis

Layer of skin consisting of a papillary layer (areolar CT) and a reticular layer (dense irregular CT).

Hypodermis

Subcutaneous layer or superficial fascia located beneath the dermis; not part of the skin.

Epidermal Layers

Stratum corneum, stratum lucidum (thick skin only), stratum granulosum, stratum spinosum, stratum basale.

Epidermal Cell Types

Keratinocytes, melanocytes, Langerhans' cells, Merkel cells.

Papillary Layer Structures

Tactile corpuscles, free nerve endings, dermal papilla, subpapillary plexus.

Reticular Layer Structures

Lamellar corpuscles, free nerve endings, cutaneous plexus, sweat glands, sebaceous glands, hair follicles.

Sebaceous Gland

Gland that makes sebum and releases it into a hair follicle.

Eccrine Sweat Glands

Widely distributed glands producing regular, watery sweat containing urea, salt, and water for heat regulation.

Apocrine Sweat Glands

Sweat glands found mostly in axillary and genital areas that secrete a milky type of sweat rich in proteins and fats.
