Basic tissues
Simple epithelia
Dr. Károly Altdorfer
Organs (stomach, eyeball) Tissues (epithelia, …) Cells
Stainings:
Red (acidophil, eosinophil)Blue (basophil)
Most common:
Hematoxylin-eosin (H-E)
Basic tissues
Types of epithelia
1. Covering epithelia2. Glandular epithelia3. Pigment epithelia4. Sensory epithelia5. (Myoepithelium)
Epithelial tissue is composed of tightly packed cells.
Functions of epithelial cells:
-protection of the internal environment (mechanical+biological)-resorption, excretion of materials-secretion
Epithelial tissue
Simple epithelia
Simple squamous epithelium (endothelium, mesothelium, epithelium)
Simple squamous epithelium (mesothelium, AgNO3 impr.)
Simple cuboidal epithelium
Simple columnar epithelium
Pseudostratified columnar epithelium (epididymis)
