EPITHELIAL MEMBRANES Cutaneous membrane(skin) Mucous membranes Serous membranes
Even though we call them epithelial- they are not only composed of epithelial tissue They are epithelial tissue and connective
tissue
![Page 5: Integumentary System](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062812/568163bf550346895dd4e0a0/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
CUTANEOUS MEMBRANE Skin
Superficial epidermis is composed of a keratinizing stratified squamous epithelium
Underlying dermis is dense fibrous connective tissue
Exposed to the air and is a dry membrane
![Page 6: Integumentary System](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062812/568163bf550346895dd4e0a0/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
MUCOUS MEMBRANE Composed of epithelium rest on a loose connective tissue
membrane called lamina pretrial
Lines all body cavities that are open to the exterior
Ex: lines the hollow organs of the respiratory system, digestive system, urinary system, and reproductive tracts
Most contained stratified squamous epithelium or simple columnar epithelium.
Wet or moist membranes that are bathed in secretions
Adapted for absorption or secretion.
![Page 7: Integumentary System](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062812/568163bf550346895dd4e0a0/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
SEROUS MEMBRANES Serosa membrane
Composed of a layer of simple squamous epithelium resting on a thin layer or areolar connective tissue.
Line body cavities that are closed to the exterior.
Occur in pairs Parietal layer lines a specific portion of the wall of the ventral
body cavity Parietal layer folds on itself and forms the visceral layer Visceral layer- cover the outside of the organs in the cavity
![Page 8: Integumentary System](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062812/568163bf550346895dd4e0a0/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
SEROUS MEMBRANES Serous layers are separated by a thin, clear fluid called
serous fluid
Serous fluid is secreted by membranes
Serous fluid allows organs to slide easily across the cavity walls of one another without friction as they carry out routine functions.
Serosa lining abdominal cavity- peritoneum Serosa around the lungs- pleura Serosa around the heart- pericardium
![Page 9: Integumentary System](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062812/568163bf550346895dd4e0a0/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
CONNECTIVE TISSUE MEMBRANES Composed of soft areolar connective
tissue Contain no epithelial cells at all Line fibrous capsules of surrounding
joints Provide a smooth surface between
joints Secrete lubricating fluid Line small sacs of connective tissue
called bursae and tubelike tendon sheaths
![Page 10: Integumentary System](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062812/568163bf550346895dd4e0a0/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
BASIC SKIN FUNCTIONS Keeps water and precious molecules in. Keeps water and bacteria out. The capillary network and sweat glands offer
regulation of heat loss. Insulates and cushions the deeper organs. Protects the entire body from mechanical damage
and UV radiation. Houses our cutaneous sensory receptors. (part of the
nervous system)
![Page 11: Integumentary System](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062812/568163bf550346895dd4e0a0/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
STRUCTURE OF THE SKIN The skin is composed of two kinds of tissue1. Stratified Squamous Epithelium makes up the
EPIDERMIS. (This epithelium is capable of keratinizing.)
2. Dense Connective Tissue makes up the DERMIS. These two layers are firmly connected .
A layer of Adipose Tissue lies beneath the skin and is called the subcutaneous tissue, or HYPODERMIS. It connects the skin to underlying organs
![Page 12: Integumentary System](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062812/568163bf550346895dd4e0a0/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
![Page 13: Integumentary System](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062812/568163bf550346895dd4e0a0/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
EPIDERMIS The epidermis is composed of 5 layers which are
avascular called strata.
The cells of the epidermis are keratinocytes – they produce the fibrous protein keratin.
The deepest layer of the epidermis is the STRATUM BASALE, which is the only layer that receives nourishment by diffusion from the dermis.
The Stratum Basale undergoes constant division, pushing new cells upward to become part of the next layer.
![Page 14: Integumentary System](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062812/568163bf550346895dd4e0a0/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
LAYERS OF THE EPIDERMIS5. STRATUM BASALE
4. STRATUM SPINOSUM3. STRATUM GRANULOSUM
2. STRATUM LUCIDUM1. STRATUM CORNEUM
The cells become flatter and increasingly full of keratin as they move away from the dermis.
The accumulation of water repellent keratin, and increasing distance form the blood and nutrient supply ultimately kills the cells.
![Page 15: Integumentary System](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062812/568163bf550346895dd4e0a0/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

DERMIS The dermis is a strong stretchy envelope that helps
hold your body together. It varies in thickness in different locations of the body.
![Page 17: Integumentary System](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062812/568163bf550346895dd4e0a0/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
LAYERS OF THE DERMIS1. Papillary Layer2. Reticular Layer
The papillary layer lies just below the epidermis. It is uneven and has fingerlike projections from its superior surface called DERMAL PAPILLAE. The Dermal Papillae contains small blood vessels called capillary loops, pain receptors, and touch receptors.
The reticular layer is the deepest layer of the skin. It contains blood vessels, sweat and oil glands, and pressure receptors.
Collagen and Elastic fibers are found throughout the dermis and are responsible for its toughness.

SKIN COLOR Amount and kind (yellow, reddish brown, or
black) of melanin in the epidermis
Amount of carotene deposited in the stratum corneum and subcutaneous tissue Carotene is orange-yellow pigment found in carrots
and other yellow-orange vegetables
Amount of oxygen bound to hemoglobin in the dermal blood vessels.

SKIN APPENDAGES 1. Cutaneous Glands (Sebaceous Glands and Sweat
Glands) 2. Hair and Hair Follicles 3. Nails
![Page 21: Integumentary System](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062812/568163bf550346895dd4e0a0/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
SKIN APPENDAGES1 Cutaneous Glands
The cutaneous glands are all exocrine glands that secrete their secretions to the skins surface via ducts. They fall into 2 groups:
A. SEBACEOUS GLANDS B. SWEAT GLANDS
![Page 22: Integumentary System](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062812/568163bf550346895dd4e0a0/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
SEBACEOUS GLANDS A. Sebaceous Glands (oil glands) – their ducts
usually empty into a hair follicle, but some open directly onto the skin. These glands produce SEBUM. ( a mixture of an oily substance and fragmented cells)
Sebum keeps the skin soft and moist and prevents the hair from becoming brittle. It contains chemicals that kill bacteria.
![Page 23: Integumentary System](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062812/568163bf550346895dd4e0a0/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
SWEAT GLANDS B. Sweat glands – are found all over the body, there
are two main types.1. Eccrine Glands produce SWEAT which reaches the
skins surface via a duct called a PORE. Eccrine glands are an important and highly efficient
factor in heat regulation. They are supplied with nerve endings which sense internal and external temps.
2. Apocrine Glands Usually confined to the axillary and genital areas.
![Page 24: Integumentary System](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062812/568163bf550346895dd4e0a0/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)

SKIN APPENDAGES2. Hair and Hair Follicles
Today hairs only serve a few minor functions (eyelashes, nose hairs)
A HAIR is flexible epithelial structure produced by a HAIR FOLLICLE
The part of the hair enclosed in the follicle is called the ROOT.
Each hair consists of a central core called the MEDULLA surrounded by a bulky CORTEX which is surrounded by the CUTICLE.
![Page 26: Integumentary System](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062812/568163bf550346895dd4e0a0/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)

SKIN APPENDAGES3. Nails
Nails are a scale like modification of the epidermis that is similar to a hoof or claw of other animals.
Nails have a free edge, a body, and a root which imbedded in the skin
They are transparent and nearly colorless but appear pink because of the blood supply in the dermis below.

ATHLETES FOOT Itchy, red, peeling condition of the skin
Appears between the toes
Results from a fungus infection
Tinea pedis
![Page 31: Integumentary System](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062812/568163bf550346895dd4e0a0/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
BOILS AND CARBUNCLES Inflammation of hair follicles and
sebaceous glands
Common in dorsal neck
Carbuncles- composite boils typically caused by a bacteria infection
![Page 32: Integumentary System](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062812/568163bf550346895dd4e0a0/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
COLD SORES Fever blisters
Small, fluid-filled blisters that itch and sting
Caused by a herpes simplex infection
Virus localizes in a cutaneous nerve where it remains dormant until activated by emotions upset, fever, or UV radiation
Usually occur around the lips and oral mucosa of the mouth
![Page 33: Integumentary System](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062812/568163bf550346895dd4e0a0/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
CONTACT DERMATITIS Itching, redness, swelling of the skin
Progressing to blistering
Caused by exposure of the skin to chemicals that provoke allergic responses in sensitive individuals
![Page 34: Integumentary System](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062812/568163bf550346895dd4e0a0/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
IMPETIGO Pink, water-filled, raised lesions (commonly
around the mouth and nose)
Develop a yellow crust and eventually rupture
Caused by a highly contageous staphlycoccus infection
Common in elementary school-ages children
![Page 35: Integumentary System](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062812/568163bf550346895dd4e0a0/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
PSORASIS Chronic condition
Characterized by reddened epidermal lesions covered with dry, silvery scales
May be disfiguring when severe
Cause is unknown: may be hereditary in some cases
Attacks often triggered by trauma, infection, hormonal changes, and stress
![Page 36: Integumentary System](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062812/568163bf550346895dd4e0a0/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
BURNS Skin is only as thick as a paper towel
When skin is severely damages, nearly every body system suffers
Metabolism accelerates or may be impaired Changes in the immune system occur Cardiovascular system may falter
Burn- tissue damage and cell death caused by intense heat, electricity, UV radiation (sunburn), certain chemicals (such acids)
![Page 37: Integumentary System](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062812/568163bf550346895dd4e0a0/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
BURNS When skin is burned and its cells destroyed,
two life-threatening problems result.
1. body loses its prescious supply of fluids containing proteins and electrolytes as these seem from the burned surfaces
2. dehydration and electrolyte imbalance follow- this can lead to a shutdown of kidneys and circulatory shock
![Page 38: Integumentary System](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062812/568163bf550346895dd4e0a0/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
RULE OF THE NINES Divides the body into 11 areas, each county
for 9 percent of the total body surface area
Additional 1% is accounted for by the area surrounding the genitals
Volume of fluid lost can be estimated indirectly by determining how much of the body surface is burned by using this rule.
![Page 39: Integumentary System](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062812/568163bf550346895dd4e0a0/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
DEVELOPMENTAL ASPECTS OF SKIN AND BODY MEMBRANES During the fifth and sixth month of fetal development the
infant is covered with a downy type of hair called lanugo.
Lanugo has usually been shed by birth.
When a baby is born the skin is covered with vernix caseosa White, cheesy-looking substance Produced by sebacous glands Protects the baby’s skin while it is floating in water-filled sac
inside the bother Newborn skin is very thin and you can see blood vessels through
it
![Page 40: Integumentary System](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062812/568163bf550346895dd4e0a0/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
DEVELOPMENTAL ASPECTS OF SKIN AND BODY MEMBRANES Milia- white spots that appear on the baby’s nose and
forehead Accumulations in the sebaceous glands Usually disappear by 3 weeks after birth
During adolescence skin and hair become more oily Sebaceous glands are activated Acne may appear Acne usually subsides in early adulthood and skin reaches
optimal appearance when we are in our 20s and 30s.
Visual changes appear in skin as we are exposed to sun, wind, abrasion, chemicals, and other irritants
![Page 41: Integumentary System](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062812/568163bf550346895dd4e0a0/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
DEVELOPMENTAL ASPECTS OF SKIN AND BODY MEMBRANES
When skin pores become clogged with pollutants and bacteria pimples, scales, and various kinds of dermatitis(skin inflammation) become visible.
During old age: Amount of subcutaneous tissue decreases which leads
to intolerance to cold Skin becomes dry Thinning skin make it more susceptible to bruising and
other types of injuries Sunlight causes loss of elasticity
![Page 42: Integumentary System](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062812/568163bf550346895dd4e0a0/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
DEVELOPMENTAL ASPECTS OF SKIN AND BODY MEMBRANES
Hair loses its luster as we age
By age 50 the number of hair follicles has dropped by 1/3
A bald man is not really hairless – he does have hairs in the bald area The hair follicles have begun to degerate Hairs are colorless and very tiny These hairs are called vellus
