1 Lab #7 Integumentary System

2 Overview of the Integumentary System

3 Organization of the Epidermis: Figure 5–2

4 Layers of the epidermis are known as “strata”

5 Layers of the Epidermis Top: Free surface of skin - stratum corneum - stratum lucidum - stratum granulosum - stratum spinosum -stratum germinativum Bottom: Basal lamina

6 A note on thick vs. thin skin Thick skin has an extra layer (lucidum) but that is NOT the reason that it is thicker than thin skin. Real reason is the other layers are thicker in thick skin than in thin skin.

7 The Dermis Deeper part of cutaneous layer Located between epidermis and subcutaneous layer Anchors epidermal accessory structures (hair follicles, sweat glands) Has 2 components: –outer papillary layer –deep reticular layer

8 The Papillary Layer Consists of areolar tissue Contains smaller capillaries, lymphatic vessels, and sensory neurons Has dermal papillae projecting between epidermal ridges

9 The Reticular Layer Consists of dense irregular connective tissue Contains larger blood vessels, lymph vessels, and nerve fibers Contains collagen and elastic fibers

10 Integumentary Accessory Structures Hair, hair follicles, sebaceous (oil) glands, sweat glands, and nails: –are derived from embryonic epidermis –are located in dermis –project through the skin surface

11 The Hair Follicle Is located deep in dermis Is made of epidermal tissue (with connective tissue around the outside) Produces nonliving hairs Is wrapped in a dense connective-tissue sheath Base is surrounded by sensory nerves

12 Hair

13 Structures of Hair and Follicles Figure 5–9a

14 Accessory Structures of Hair Arrector pili: –involuntary smooth muscle –causes hairs to stand up –produces “goose bumps” Sebaceous glands: –lubricate the hair –control bacteria

15 Inside the Follicle Figure 5–9b

16 Exocrine Glands in the skin Sebaceous glands and follicles (oil glands): –holocrine glands –secrete sebum Sweat glands: –merocrine glands –watery secretions

17 Types of Sebaceous Glands Sebaceous glands: –associated with most hair follicles (on head and body) Sebaceous follicles: –discharge directly onto skin surface –found on face and trunk –when clogged  acne

18 Sebaceous glands

19 Types of Sweat Glands Apocrine: –found in armpits, around nipples, and groin Merocrine: –more numerous, widely distributed on body surface –especially on palms and soles (thick skin)  Both are actually merocrine

20 “Apocrine” Sweat Glands Merocrine secretions, not apocrine Associated with hair follicles in groin, nipples, and axillae (armpits) Become active at puberty Produce sticky, cloudy secretions (thick sweat) that breaks down and causes odor

21 Merocrine Sweat Glands Also called eccrine glands: –coiled, tubular glands –discharge directly onto skin surface –sensible perspiration for cooling (thin sweat) –water, salts, and organic compounds

22 Sweat Glands of the Skin Apocrine Merocrine

23 Epidermis What to look for: Usually darkest between stratum germinativum and stratum granulosm (granulosm often a dark meandering line) Keratinized cells (s. corneum) often lift off the underlying layers S. germinativum along basal lamina, along with melanocytes

24 Dermis: Papillary vs. Reticular layer

25 What to look for Papillary layer –has ridges –is areolar –Just under basal lamina Reticular layer –much thicker –Dense irregular CT Hypodermis –Loose CTP

26 More skin

27 Merocrine sweat gland What to look for –Found in most skin –Coiled, tubular –Small lumens in cross section –Have duct that goes all the way to the epidermal surface and ends in sweat pore –Smaller than apocrine, don’t extend as deep into dermis

28 Apocrine sweat gland What to look for: Associated with hair follicle Only in nipples, groin, armpit Large lumens Deeper in dermis than merocrine

29 Apocrine sweat gland

30 Hair with sebaceous glands and arrector pilli

31 Hair What to look for: Follicles are rarely complete Can often see root, papilla at base of hair Arrector pilli muscle at an angle Associated glands (which are?)

32 Sebaceous glands

33 What to look for: Associated with hair follicle Found most everywhere hair follicles are found in skin Look like cauliflower (maybe?)

34 Sebaceous follicle

35 What to look for: Also look like cauliflower Found on face and trunk only NOT associated with hair follicle Have duct that opens onto skin surface

36 Lab Activity #7 Look at slides: –Axillary skin (armpit) –Pigmented and Nonpigmented thin skin slide –Scalp

37 What will you find there? Armpit Scalp –Hair? –Hair follicle? –Sebaceous gland? –Sebaceous follicle? –Apocrine sweat gland? –Merocrine sweat gland? ? Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y N N Y

38 Pigmented Thin Skin Find: –Epidermis Identify layers, starting with germinativum Find melanocytes –Dermis Papilary and reticular CT layers –Hypodermis

39 Axillary skin Locate: – an apocrine sweat gland. – a merocrine sweat gland – also look for a sebaceous follicle (not associated with a hair)

40 Turn in one drawing page with… Three types of glands (one sebaceous, a merocrine sweat gland and an apocrine sweat gland) Epidermis (label the four layers) Dermis (label papillary and reticular) Hair follicles and shaft (label follicle, sebaceous gland, arrector pilli muscle if seen)

41 Assignment For Next Thursday turn in: –Your drawing –Review Sheet #7 (you do not have to do the parts about plotting sweat glands and fingerprinting on page 104)
