WVSOM - HISTO

Respiratory

QuestionAnswer
Respiratory system divisions Conducting portion respiratory portion
Conducting Portion "Respiratory Epithelium" same as ciliated pseudostratified columnar epithelium
Components of Respiratory Epithelium (5) Ciliated columnar cells mucous goblet cells basal cells small granule (k) cells Brush Cells
Goblet Cells More in conducting portion and disappear the farther you go down into the respiratory portion. Good to use as landmark
Loose connective tissue in respiratory is now called ____________ lamina propria
Ciliated columnar cells most numerous cell type in teh respiratory epithelium
Cilia movement beat toward the oral cavity
Mucous Goblet cells secrete mucus that traps particles and soluble gases
What moves mucus cilia move teh mucus along teh epithelium
Basal cells small, round cells that differentiate into other cell types
Small granule cell neuroendocrine cells are more numerous in teh bronchi than in the rest of the respiratory system.
Brush cells have microvilli and are thought to be a type of chemoreceptor
mucosa epithelium, basement membrane plus the underlying lamina propria
Critical clinical difference between stratified squamous epithelium and respiratory epithelium stratified squamous epithelium does not have cilia, thus it is more vulnerable to colonizaiont and infection than respiratory epithelium
Olfactory epithelium located in roof of nasal cavity on sides of the nasal septum on the superior nasal conchae
Vestibule internal nasal cavity; lined by nonkeratinized strat. squam. epithelium. Lining can change to pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelium posteriorly. Contains vibrissae (short hairs) to filter out large particles.
Three types of cells in olfactory epithelium Sustentacular cells Basal Cells Olfactory Cells
Sustentacular cells are _____________ supporting cells
Basal cells give rise to _____________ other cell types
Olfactory cells are ___________ sensory neurons bipolar
Cilia at base of olfactory cells act as receptors for chemical stimuli
Laimina propria under teh olfactory epithelium contain: blood vessels nerves bowman's glands (mostly serous)
paranasal sinuses lined with a thin respiratory epithelium
secretions from paranasal sinuses are moved ___________ into the nasal cavity by cilia
nasopharynx lined with respiratory epithelium
oropharynx lined with stratified squamous nonkeratiizezed epithelium (it is part of the digestive system as well)
Larynx responsible for voice production; epithelium is mainly a respiratory epithelium.
Lamina propria of Larynx contains mixed muco-serous glands and the laryngeal cartilages
Cartilage in the larynx both hyaline and elastic cartilages
Bowman's glands produces watery secretion that washes the olfactory cilia to prepare for new smells. Also disolves in secretions dectected by the olfactory cilia for smell
Epiglottis 1. stratifed squamous nonkeratinized epithelium on the lingual surfaces 2. Respiratory epithelium on the lower laryngeal surface
Vestibular folds false cords lie superior to vocal cords loose connective tissue containing glands, lymphoid aggregations, & fat cells. Covered by respiratory epithelium.
Vocal cords true vocal cords skeletal muscle, vocal ligament (elastic fibers) and a covering of stratified squamous nonkeratinized epithelium
Laryngitis inflammation of the larynx. edema of the mucous membrane over the vocal cords cause voice impairment
Primary Bronchi arise from subdivisions of teh trachea
Primary bronchi give rise to secondary and tertiary bronchi
Bronchi lining is still a respiratory epithelium As hyaline cartilage decreases, smooth muscle increases. Look for ratio...not a huge amount of smooth muscle
Bronchiole Diameter of 5mm or less LOSE hyaline cartilage simploe ciliated columnar or cuboidal Surrounded by lung tissue Lacks glands in submucosa
Terminal Bronchioles Simple cuboidal epithelium Clara Cells No goblet cells smooth muscle and some elastic fibers Walls of terminal bronchioles are continuous
Cara Cells secrete glycosaminoglycans as surfactant metabolize airborn toxins divide
Respiratory Bronchiole transition to respiratory potrtion of lung Simple cuboidal lining bronchiole walls are interrupted by alveoli
alveoli pouch-like evaginations simple squamous epithelium site of 02 and CO2 exchange
Alveoli found: respiratory bronchiole walls alveolar ducts alveolar sacs
Alveoli are separated by ______________ inter alveolar septa that may contain 1 ore more alveolar pores
Type I pneumocytes cover 95% of alveolar Form tight junctions with adjacent cells Not able to divide Simple squamous with a different name
Type II Cell (pneumocyte) cuboidal cells that produce surfactant can differentiate into type I cells
Cells of alveolar wall Type I cell Type II cell Endothelial cells
Respiratory membrane 1) alveolar epithelium 2) Capillary endothelium 3) intervening basement membrane
Lung Macrophages dust cells phagocytic clean up debris, bacteria, etc Septal connective tissue but mostly in airways
