Common features of epithelia
• Cells are connected to one another providing a lining for a surface or a hollow organ or tube
• Sit on a layer of fine filaments, called a "basal lamina".
• Form a boundary between the external environment and the remainder of the organ.
• Control movement of substances into and out of that organ.

Specialized Microvilli
• Stereocilia are long microvilli
• Found in absorptive/secretory cells in epididymus (non-motile)
• Also found on special sensory cells in ear (cochlea)– Bending is a stimulus for sound or
position sensation.

Anchoring junctions at thelateral surface
• Bind cells together via special ligands and their cytoskeletal systems – ligands are cadherins
• Junction differentiated by type of microfilament– Actin: adherent junctions– Intermediate filaments: desmosomes

Anchoring junctions : Desmosomes
• Like a spot weld or button.– Formed by a dense intracellular plaque on each
side into which keratin filaments are looped. (desmoplakins; plakoglobin; 75 kD polypeptide; desmoglein)
– Cadherin molecules (“calcium dependent adhesion molecules”) extend across the extracellular space to bind the cells together. (Desmocollins-I, II & desmogleins)

Pemphigus: skin disease
• Patients make antibodies against one of their desmosomal cadherans.
• Antibodies bind to desmosomal sites (only in skin and oral mucosa)
• disrupt connection between skin cells.
• Body fluid leaks into epithelial cells and causes blistering.
• Can be fatal if left untreated

• Tight (occluding) junctions– Zonula occludens
• Zonula adherans (belt-like zone)• Desmosome

maintain cell polarity

Specializations at the basal surface
• Basal/Lateral interdigitations
• Hemidesmosomes– Interactions between intermediate
filaments and basal lamina
• Focal contacts– Interactions between actin filaments
and basal lamina

Basal/Lateral Interdigitations
• Cells sit on multiple processes (like an octopus).
• These processes interdigitate with one another.
• Greatly increase surface area. • Process filled with mitochondria• On membrane are Na/K pumps (ATPase’s)
(important for active transport of sodium and water conservation)

Anchoring junctions: Hemidesmosomes
• Like a half desmosome at the base of the cells • links to basal lamina
– A plaque anchors intermediate filaments inside the cell--ends are buried in plaque (contains desmoplakin-like protein).
– anchoring proteins called “integrins”, bind from the keratin molecules inside to laminins in the basal lamina. (Integrins are receptors for specific extracellular matrix proteins). Bind like “velcro”

What are integrins?• Extracellular matrix receptors in the cell membrane:
– Affinity relatively low (Ka= 106--109 liters/mole): Why would that help the cell?
– Depends on extracellular divalent cations (Ca++ or Mg++)
– binding activates signalling cascades
• Composed of two glycoprotein subunits: alpha and beta. Combination and types of subunits may dictate selectivity of binding.

How do integrins function, in general?• Regulated adhesion via integrins
controls route and movement of cells in the body.
• Could you apply this to wound healing?
