Essential question
• What are the ways skin protects the body?
![Page 3: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Integumentary system• functions:1. protecting the body2. helping to regulate body temperature3. allows you to sense stimuli in your
environment4. stores blood5. synthesis of vit. D6. excretion & absorption of materials
![Page 4: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Structure of the skin• skin = cutaneous membrane• largest organ of body– in adults: covers ~ 2 m² & weighs ~ 4.5 – 5 kg
(10 – 11 lb)
• 2 parts:1. epidermis 2. dermis3. sub Q below dermis & not technically part
of skin: contains fat (insulation), & blood vessels, nerves that supply the skin
![Page 5: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Epidermis
• keratinzed stratified squamous epithelium
• 4 main cell types:1. keratinocytes2. melanocytes3. Langerhans cells4. Merkel cells
![Page 6: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
keratinocytes• ~ 90% of all epidermal cells• produce fibrous protein: keratin:– protects skin & underlying tissue from• heat• microbes• chemicals
• also release a water-repellant sealant from lamellar granules– decreases water entry/loss– inhibits entry of foreign materials
![Page 7: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
melanocytes• ~8% of epidermal cells• produce melanin keratinocytes– pigment (yellow-red to brown-black) that
contributes to skin color– * absorbs UV radiation– “covers” nucleus in keratinocyte
![Page 8: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Merkel Cells
• least numerous of epidermal cells (>1%)
• deep in epidermis• in contact with Merkel disc (tactile
disc)• together detect different aspects of
touch
![Page 9: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Thin Skin
• covers most of body• 4 layers:1. stratum basale2. stratum spinosum3. stratum granulosum4. stratum corneum
![Page 10: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Thick Skin
• found in areas where exposure to friction is the greatest
• “thick” because has 1 extra layer: – stratum lucidum (between stratgum
granulosa & a thicker stratum corneum)
![Page 11: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
psoriasis
• common & chronic skin disorder in which keratinocytes divide & move more quickly than normal from stratum basale stratum corneum–make abnl keratin flaky, silvery scales @
skin surface–most often over knees, elbows, or scalp
![Page 12: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Dermis
• 2nd, deeper layer of skin• composed mostly of CT• 2 regions:1. papillary region2. reticular region
![Page 13: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Papillary region of dermis
• ~ 1/5th of total dermis• surface area greatly increased by
finger-like structures: dermal papillae that project into epidermis– contain:• capillary loops• tactile receptors: Meissner corpuscles• free nerve endings (temp, pain, tickle, itch)
![Page 14: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Epidermal ridges
• develop during 3rd month of fetal development
• pattern is genetically determined & unique to individuals (x identical twins)
• on finger tips ridges deeper finger prints– allow you to grasp things by increasing
surface area
![Page 15: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Reticular region of dermis
• attached to subcutaneous layer beneath
• contains:– dense irregular CT– hair follicles– sebaceous glands– sudoriferous (sweat) glands– collagen & elastic fibers (gives skin its
elasticity, strength): extreme stretching striae (stretch marks)
![Page 16: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Basis of skin color
• 3 pigments contribute:1. Melanin2. Hemoglobin (hgb)3. Carotene
![Page 17: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
melanin
• made from a.a. tyrosine using enzyme tyrosinase then stored in organelle called a melanosome
• exposure to UV light increases enzymatic activity & more (& darker) melanin produced
• melanin absorbs UV radiation preventing it from damaging DNA which skin cancer
![Page 18: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
hemoglobin
• in RBCs rosy color to lighter skinned individuals
• blushing: due to increased blood flow (autonomic nervous system at work)
![Page 19: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Carotene

albinism
• inherited inability to produce melanin• most due to cell’s inability to produce
tyrosinase
![Page 21: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
vitiligo
• partial or complete lack of melanocytes from patches of skin produces irregular white spots
• ? Immune system malfunction?

Skin color as diagnostic clue• cyanotic: when blood not adequately
oxygenated mucous membranes, nail beds & skin appears bluish
![Page 23: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Skin color as diagnostic clue
• jaundice: due to build up of bilirubin (yellow pigment) in skin, sclera; usually indicates liver disease
![Page 24: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Skin color as diagnostic clue
• erythema: redness of skin caused by engorgement of capillaries due to: injury, infection, inflammation, allergic reaction
![Page 25: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Skin color as diagnostic clue
• pallor: paleness of the skin, seen in shock & anemia
![Page 26: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Accessory structures of the skin
• all develop from embryonic epidermis
• include:– Hair– Nails– Glands

Hair (pili)
• present on most skin surfaces x palmar surfaces of hands, soles & plantar surfaces of feet
• genetic & hormonal influences determine the thickness & pattern of distribution of hair
![Page 28: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
hair
• functions:• protection– scalp, eyebrows, eyelashes: from getting
foreign objects in eyes– nose, ear canals: trap foreign objects
• sensitive to light touch– touch receptors in hair root plexus
![Page 29: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Hair
• composed of columns of dead, keratinized cells bonded together by extracellular proteins
![Page 30: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Anatomy of a hair
• shaft: portion of hair that projects from scalp
• root: portion below scalp• follicle: surrounds root of hair• arector pili: smooth muscle extends
from side of hair follicle superficial dermis
![Page 31: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Types of hair
• lanuga: grows on fetus @ ~ 5 months fetal age; sheds b/4 birth
• vellus hair: short, fine hair that grows over baby @~ 2-3 months after birth
• terminal hair: coarse hair that develops after puberty
![Page 32: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Hair color
• mostly due to amt & type of melanin in keratinzed cells
• dark hair has eumelanin• blondes & redheads have
pheomelanin• gray: loss of melanin• white: loss of melanin + air bubbles
in shaft of hair
![Page 33: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Skin glands
• exocrine glands ass’c with the skin:1. sebaceous glands2. sudoriferous glands– eccrine sweat glands– apocrine sweat glands
![Page 34: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)

Sebaceous glands
• “oil” glands• most connected to hair follicles– rest secrete directly onto surface of skin
(lips, eyelids, genitals)
• secrete oily substance called sebum onto hair
• keeps hair from getting brittle
![Page 36: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
acne
• inflammation of sebaceous glands colonized with bacteria
• infection cyst which destroys epidermal cells (cystic acne)
• acne is not caused by eating chocolate or fried foods
![Page 37: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Sudoriferous glands
• sweat glands• sweat onto skin surface or hair
follicles
![Page 38: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Ceruminous glands
• modified sweat glands in external ear canal skin (subQ layer)
• secrete cerumen (ear wax– provides a sticky barrier that impedes
entrance of foreign bodies
![Page 39: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
nails
• plates of tightly packed, hard, dead, keratinized epidermal cells that form a clear, solid covering over the dorsal surfaces of the distal portions of the 20 digits
• average growth ~ 0.04 in/wk – fingernails grow slightly faster than toe
nails
![Page 40: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Functions of a nail
• help us grasp & manipulate small objects
• protect ends of digits• allows scratching
![Page 41: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Parts of exterior of a nail
![Page 42: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Parts of a nail
• body: visible part• root: part buried• matrix: where cells divide to produce
growth
![Page 43: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Functions of the skin (#7)
1. Thermoregulation – the homeostatic regulation of body
temperature– skin achieves this in 2 ways:1. sweating • evaporation of sweat requires nrg (body heat)
so body cools down as sweat evaporates
2. adjusting flow of blood in dermis• vessels dilate when body too warm• vessels constrict when body too cold
![Page 44: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Functions of the skin
2. Blood Reservoir• skin carries ~ 8 – 10% of total blood
flow in resting adult
![Page 45: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Functions of the skin3. Protection• keratin protects underlying tissues
• lipids released retard evaporation of water from skin surface
• sebum moistens skin & has antibacterial properties
• acidic pH of sweat bacteriostatic
• melanin protects DNA in skin cells from UV damage
• Langerhans cells alert immune system if microbes does attack / macrophages ingest microbes
![Page 46: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Functions of the skin4. Cutaneous Sensations• skin contains variety of nerve endings
& receptors – touch– pressure– vibration– tickle– pain– temperature
![Page 47: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Functions of the skin
5. Excretion• elimination of wastes from the body
• only small amt substances excreted from skin–~400 mL water/day– ~200 mL sweat (sedentary adult)– small amts salts, CO2, NH3, & urea
![Page 48: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Functions of the skin
6. Absorption • passage of materials from external
environment body cells• absorption of water-soluble materials
negligible• lipid-soluble materials do absorb:– fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, K)– certain drugs (can be administered transdermally)– gases: O2 & CO2
– toxins: acetone, CCl4, salts of Hg, Pb, Ar, substances in poison ivy & poison oak
![Page 49: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
Functions of the skin
7. Synthesis of Vitamin D• requires activation of a precursor molecule
in the skin by UV rays in sunlight modified by enzymes in liver & kidneys producing calcitriol the most active form of vit. D
• calcitriol: aids in absorption of calcium in GI tract
![Page 50: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
Skin wound healing
• skin damage sets in motion a sequence of events that repairs the skin to as normal as it can in both structure & function
• depending on depth of wound 1 of 2 processes occur– epidemal wound healing– deep wound healing
![Page 51: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
Epidermal wound healing
• abrasion: portion of skin has been scraped away
• in response to injury: basal cells of nearby uninjured skin break contact with bm, enlarge, & migrate across the wound– migration continues across wound until meet
cells advancing from other side of wound– contact inhibition: cells stop migrating when
touch another cell
![Page 52: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
Deep wound healing
• when injury extends deeper than epidermis repair process more complex & scars form
• healing occurs in 4 phases:1. Inflammatory phase2. Migratory phase3. Proliferative phase4. Scar formation
![Page 53: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
Inflammatory phase
• blood clot forms– loosely unites edges of wound
• inflammation develops– vascular response• vasodilation & increased permeability of
vessels
– cellular response• phagocytic WBCs (neutrophils),
macrophages• fibroblasts
![Page 54: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
Migratory phase
• clot scab• epithelial cells migrate beneath scab
to bridge wound• fibroblasts begin secreting collagen &
glycoproteins scar• *tissue filling wound called
granulation tissue
![Page 55: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
Proliferative phase
• extensive growth of epithelial cells beneath scab & deposition of collagen in random patterns (fibroblasts)
• growth of blood vessels
![Page 56: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
Scar formation
• aka maturation phase• scab falls off• epidermis restored• collagen fibers become more organized• fibroblasts disappear• blood vessels restored to normal• scar tissue less elastic, fewer blood
vessels, +/- accessory structures of skin
![Page 57: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
Scar formation
• aka maturation phase• scab falls off• epidermis restored• collagen fibers become more organized• fibroblasts disappear• blood vessels restored to normal• scar tissue less elastic, fewer blood
vessels, +/- accessory structures of skin
![Page 58: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
burns
• tissue damage caused by excessive heat, electricity, radioactivity, or corrosive chemicals that denature proteins in skin cells
• destroy skin’s ability to maintain homeostasis
• graded by their severity: 1st & 2nd degree = partial thickness burns; 3rd degree = full thickness
![Page 59: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)
1st degree burns
• only epidermis is damaged• example: sunburn• symptoms:– localized redness, swelling, & pain
• tx: immediate flushing with cool water (lessens pain)
• healing: 3 – 6 days +/- peeling of skin• results: normal
![Page 60: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/60.jpg)
2nd degree burn
• epidermis & upper dermis damaged, some skin function lost, ass’c structures not damaged
• symptoms:– same as 1st degree + blisters (epidermis
separates from dermis due to accumulation of tissue fluid)
• example: any burn with blisters
![Page 61: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/61.jpg)
2nd degree burns
• tx: if 2° infection: antibiotics• lasts: 3 – 4 wks with +/- scarring
• AVOID: WEAR SUNSCREEN!
![Page 62: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/62.jpg)
3rd degree burns
• destroys epidermis, dermis, & subQ• no initial edema or pain or sensations
(receptors destroyed)• most skin functions lost• as healing starts marked edema• regeneration: months, + scarring• tx: +/- skin grafting
![Page 63: Integumentary System Honors Biology Power point for copying.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649cfa5503460f949cb4bc/html5/thumbnails/63.jpg)
Systemic effects of a burn
• greater threat to life than burn itself• include:
1. large loss of water, plasma, plasma proteins• shock
2. bacterial infection3. reduced circulation of blood4. decreased urine production5. diminshed immune response

Major burns• used to estimate extent & severity of
burns• major burn considered a 3° burn that
covers > 10% of body or a 2° burn that covers > 25% of surface area of body or any 3° burn on face, hands, feet, or perineum
• if burn > 70% surface area > ½ patients die

Skin cancer
• 3 common forms:1. Basal cell carcinoma2. Squamous cell carcinoma3. Malignant melanoma
• 1 & 2 50% more common in males

Basal cell carcinoma
• > 78% all skin cancers• arises in cells from stratum basale– Sun-exposed areas
• rarely metastasizes.

Squamous cell carcinoma
• ~20% of all skin cancers• arise from squamous cells in
epidermis• variable tendency to metastasize

Malignant melanoma• arise from melanocytes• ~2% of all skin cancers• deadliest form of skin cancer– spreads rapidly, can die w/in months of dx
• ~1/50 Americans will develop in their lifetimes (was 1/500 in 1930’s)– increase partly due to hole in ozone layer
(more UV rads)–main reason: more people spend more
time in sun &/or tanning beds

Malignant melanoma
• key to successful tx is early detection• early warning signs: ABCD• A: asymetrical lesion• B: borders are irregular• C: color is uneven; may have
multiple coloration • D:diameter: ordinary moles <0.25 in
