About this Lecture Cytoplasm: Structure Organelles Ribosomes ER Golgi apparatus Lysosomes Mitochondria
Haematoxylin and Eosin (H&E) Haematoxylin is a basic violet stain. Eosin is an acidic pink stain. Acidophilic structure= A structure that has affinity to stain with acidic dyes = basic in nature………So it stains pink with eosin Basophilic structure= A structure that has affinity to stain with basic dyes = acidic in nature……… So it stains violet with haematoxylin
The cytoplasm Composed of: 1- Cytosol: jelly like fluid matrix, its primary component is water 2- Organelles 3- Inclusion 4- Cytoskeleton cytoplasm Nucleus
Organelles Little organs: - Living structures - Metabolicaly active - Perform certain functions - Permenant - Present in all cell types • Types: • -Memberanous organelles • Non-membranous organelles
Ribosomes • - Non-membranous organelles - Chemical nature: nucleoproteins consistof proteins conjugated with ribosomal RNA (rRNA) • Structure: • LM: • By H&E stain: can not be seen • if large in number they impart Cytoplasmicbasophilia.
EM: Electron dense granules 2 subunits: Small subunit (RNA+30 P) large subunit (2RNA+40 P)
Types of ribosomes Free Attached Solitary Polysomes
Polysomes - Clusters of ribosomes connected by mRNA thread & producing identical proteins mRNA ribosomes Free protein in cytoplasm
Function of ribosomes Ribosomes are the sites of protein synthesis: Solitary: reserve Polysomes: proteins used by the cell Attached: proteins for secretion outside the cell
Endoplasmic reticulum - Membranous organelle - Network of interconnecting tubules and cisternae
Endoplasmic reticulum Rough (rER) Smooth (sER)
rER sER LM Cyto. basophalia Cyto. acidophilia
sER rER EM • -Interconnected branching tubules • -Lacks ribosomes- • -No connection with nucl. -Interconnected parallel cisternae -Has attached ribosomes -Connected to nuclear m.
sER rER EM • Interconnected tubules • Lacks ribosomes Interconnected cisternae Has attached ribosomes
sER rER Function Participates in protein synthesis. 1-Lipid synthesis (fatty acids ,cholestrol & steroid hormones) 2- Detoxification of toxic substance 3- Muscle contraction (control calcium ions -sarcoplasmic reticulum) 4- Glycogen synthesis
Role of rER in protein synthesis 1- receiving of polypeptide chains in ER lumen 2- storage 3- protein trasport
Golgi apparatus -Membranous organelle Structure: LM: -H&E stain: not apparent - Special stain: silver stain
Golgi apparatus in epididymis(Silver stain) Brown anastomosing network of threads at the secretory border of the cells
EM structure of Golgi apparatus 3 components: - macrovesicles - flattened membranous saccules. (4-10) - microvesicles Flattened membranous cisternae: Convex surface: immature face Concave surface: Secretory face = mature face
Fate of protein transported by rER Primary lysosomes
Functions of Golgi apparatus 1- Chemical modification of proteins 2- Formation of primary lysosomes 3- Secretion of cell products 4- Renewal of the cell membrane
Cytoplasmic Organelles that participate in the process of protein synthesis 1- Ribosomes(factories) 2- Rough endoplasmic reticulum (storage & transport) 3- Golgi apparatus (chemical modification & secretion)
Lysosomes Definition: - Membrane bound organelles containing hydrolytic enzymes (Digestive system of the cell)
Lysosomes - Membrane bound organelles containing hydrolytic enzymes Structure: LM Histochemical methods staining their enzymes
EM 2 types 1ry lysosome small, regular vesicle , contains homogenous dense content 2ry lysosome Large, irregular vesicle, contains heterogenous dense and light contents
Function of lysosomes - The digestive system of the cell (contain hydrolytic enzymes that could digest the food vacuole's contents & destroy old cell organelles)
Forms of secondary lysosomes 1ry lysosome + 1-pinocytotic vesicles = multivesicular body 2- phagosomes =residual bodies 3- autophagic vacuole = residual bodies 5- Lipofuscin pigment
Mitochondria chondros= granule Mitos=thread -Membranous organelles Structure: LM: -H&E stain: not apparent - Special stain: silver stain
LM picture of mitochondria (special stain: silver stain) mitochondria appear as dark brown granules
EM of the Mitochondria Double membranes: -Outer smooth -Inner folded forming cristae Double spaces: -intermembranous space - intercristal space (matrix space) intermembranous space
Inner membrane: - cristae to increase surface area - contains protein enzymes for respiratory chain - contains ATP synthetase for ATP synthesis Matrix: - oxidative enzymes - mitochondril DNA so mitochondria can replicate themselves
Function of a mitochondrion -Energy production& storage (ATP synthesis) -Concerned with cell respiration (sites for Kreb’s and fatty acid cycles)
Peroxisomes LM:can not be seenEM:- small, rounded- similar to 1ry lysosomes - Contain 40 oxidative enzymes (urateoxidase)
Functions of peroxisomes: 1- Generate energy but can not store it (NO ATP formation) 2- Maintenance of body temperature (The energy is released as heat). 3- Cell protection : catalase enzyme breaks down H2O2.
