SUBJECTS
2. CONNECTIVE TISSUE
Tissue maintain the form of organs throughout the body
2. Extracellular material
(matrix) :
a. Protein fibers (collagens, reticular
and elastic fibers)
b. Ground substance (proteoglycans,
glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), and
multiadhesive glycoproteins)

cytokines, and other agents
Imunological (defense)
The release of
pharmacologically active
molecules (eg, histamine)
Participation in allergic
reactions
Adipocytes
Energy reserves
a. Protein Fibers
1. Collagen Fibers
Fiber is found in tendons that serves to connect the
muscles, bones and skin .
Most abundant fibers and are found in almost all
connective tissue of all organs (30%).
a. Protein Fibers
1. Collagen Fibers
Catagories of colagen fibers :
a. Type I collagen fibers.
Found in the dermis of skin, tendons, ligaments, and bone.
Very strong and offer great resistance to tensil stresses.
b. Type II collagen fibers.
Present in hyaline cartilage and elastic cartilage.
The fibers provide resistance to pressure.
c. Type III collagen fibers.
The thin, branching reticular fibers
Form the delicate supporting meshwork in such organs as the
lymph nodes, spleen, and bone marrow.
d. Type IV collagen fibers.
Present in the basal lamina of the basement membrane, to
which the basal regions of the cells attach.
a. Protein Fibers
2. Reticular Fibers
Formed by proteins of
the collagen family.
low elasticity, thinner
than collagen fibers.
Function is to connect
the of connective tissue
with other networks .
Fiber is found in liver ,
spleen , and lymph
nodes .
Reticular fibers consist
mainly of collagen type
III.
a. Protein Fibers
3. Elastic Fibers
Elastic fibers are composed mainly of
the protein elastin.
Thinner than collagen fibers.
Have highly elastic properties and a
high degree of flexibility .
Elastic fibers found in blood vessels ,
ligaments , membranes and cartilage
of the larynx .
1. Proteoglycans
Composed of a core protein to which are
covalently attached various numbers and
combinations of the sulfated GAGs.
Function:
As structural compoents of the ECM.
Protein binding and storing the signal
coductor.
2. Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) /
mucopolysaccharides
Long polysaccharides consisting of repeating disaccharide units
GAGs are intensely hydrophilic.
Polyanions, binding a great number of cations (usually sodium).
The largest, almost unique, and most ubiquitous GAG is hyaluronic acid (HA or hyaluronan)
Structure of glycosaminoglycans
3. Multiadhesive glycoproteins
The adhesive glycoproteins are very large molecules.
Branched oligosaccharide chains
Have important roles in the adhesion of cells to their substrate.
Have multiple binding sites for cell surface
receptors (integrins) and for other matrix
macromolecules.
