Lupus
- Autoimmune inflammatory, chronic disease, the body attacks itself - Four kinds; Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), cutaneous lupus (caused by the sun), Drug-induced lupus, and Neonatal lupus - Red rashes and joint pain - Not contagious, mainly gene-caused. You can die from it if it causes kidney failure.
Cat scratch fever
- Bartoella Henselae Infection - Swollen lymph nodes, inflamed wound, flu-like symptoms, rashes (sometimes) - 5-9 y/o or 60-64 and immunocompromised are most vulnerable - Spreads to people when infected cats break your skin - Cats get it from fleas
Athletes' Foot
- Caused by a fungus - More common in men due to hygiene - Smelly feet, itching, cracked skin, toe nails pulling away, skin between toes infected - Only affects top layer of skin - Caused by excessive sweating - Is contagious via sharing shoes
keratin
- Cells within the epidermis are filled with a protein called Keratin. - Keratin gives the skin its texture and waterproof quality.
melanin
- Color of skin is mainly determined by a brown pigment called melanin. - Melanin is produced in the lower epidermis by melanocytes. - The amount of melanin is dependent on two factors: Heredity and Exposure to UV Radiation (Sunlight)
Loose connective tissue
- Found almost everywhere in the body and directly under the skin. - Basically, if there's a free space in the body, loose connective tissue fills it. - It provides support for structures passing through it, such as blood and lymph vessels and nerves. - It also serves to bind together other tissues, including organs and their components.
Sebaceous Oil Glands
- Found in large numbers in the face and scalp usually connected by small ducts to hair follicles - Secrete sebum to coat skin in such a way that prevents water loss and softens skin - Sebum is mildly toxic and controlled by hormones; high levels of sex hormones, and increases activity of oil glands. - Acne results when the ducts in the oil glands become clogged with excessive amounts of sebum, dead cells, and bacteria.
simple squamous epithelium
- Large, flat, & thin cells - Prominent Nucleus - Resemble Fried Eggs or Paving Stones - Minimal resistance to diffusion and filtration - Found in kidneys, capillaries and air sacs in the lungs
psuedostratified ciliated columnar epithelium
- Single layer of cells with different heights, where some cells don't reach the surface. The nuclei are at different levels. And they have cilia. - These function as secretory cells, usually secreting mucus. The cilia can move the mucus around. - You can find these cells in the respiratory tract and trachea as well as in sperm carrying ducts of the testes.
Hypodermis
- Subcutaneous fascia includes fibrous connective tissue and lipocytes (fat cells). - This is needed for padding, insulation and a backup energy storage area.
simple columnar epithelium
- Tall, vertical cells at the top are columnar cells; those at the bottom are connective tissue. - These cells use active transport as absorption to move nutrients from the intestine to the blood.
mucous membrane
- These line all body cavities exposed to the external environment, specifically organs that open to the outside world: - Respiratory System- mouth, nose, lungs - Digestive System- mouth, stomach, rectum - Urinary System- bladder - Reproductive System- vagina
Vitiligo
- affects melanin production (pigmentation) in the skin. Different kinds affect areas of the body and create different patterns of color - Autoimmune disorder - cause unknown, thought to be hereditary or even caused by stressed - people with vitiligo are at risk of other autoimmune diseases.
Necrotizing fasciitis
- death of fascia (layer of skin - caused mainly by streptococcal bacteria - sudden and rapid infection - flu like symptoms, redness and pain around the infection site - ⅓ of patients with N.F. die from infection or can develop toxic shock syndrome - rarely contagious and occurs mostly randomly - prior conditions + weakened immune system can lead to it
parts of the skin
- epidermis - dermis - fatty tissue - blood vessels - hair follicles - oil glands - sweat glands - melanocytes
simple cuboidal epithelium
- single layer of cube shaped cells - large, central, spherical nucleus - Function: secretion and absorption - Found in kidneys and ovaries
Lichen Plantus
1. Autoimmune response, could have association with Hep C infection 2. presents as a purple, flat topped lesions on Ankles and wrist. wickham's striae. white bumps in mouth can occur 3. treat with topical steroids
epithelial tissue types
1. simple squamous epithelium 2. simple cuboidal epithelium 3. simple columnar epithelium 4. pseudo-stratified ciliated columnar epithelium 5. stratified squamous epithelium
Ringworm
A highly contagious, fungal infection of the skin or scalp. Transmitted from people, animals, and moist environments.
skeletal muscle
A muscle that is attached to the bones of the skeleton and provides the force that moves the bones.
Impetigo
Bacterial infection of the skin Usual occurs in pre-pubescent children Open sores around nose + mouth Streptococcus A or Staphylococcus aureus bacteria cause it. Highly contagious
Scarlet fever
Bacterical infection Common in children Caused by streptococcus Also can lead to impetigo Rash starts at the top of the body and moves down- is aggrivated where the skin creases (joints) -- strawberry tongue
Carbuncles & Sebaceaous Cysts
Carbuncle = cluster of boils. Buildup in sebaceaous glands. (Formed from a staph infection from staphylococcus bacteria) Cysts = sebum buildup. Both are common in people with autoimmune disorders. No treatment, surgery for removal rarely necessary.
Cartilage
Cartilage is a type of "DENSE CONNECTIVE TISSUE"
fiberous connective tissue
Fibrous connective tissue is composed of parallel bundles of collagen fibers. It is found in the dermis, tendons, and ligaments and can also be referred to as dense connective tissue. These attach muscles to bones and bones to bones.
alopecia
In autoimmune disease that causes the body to attack its own hair follicles and causes hair loss. - Alopecia totalis - includes all hair on head. - Alopecia universalis - all hair on body Those with astma, hay fever, dermatitis, thyroid, vitiligo, or down syndrome are more likely to develop it.
Psoriasis
Inflamtion of skin and buildup of plaque Caused by an overactive immune system Can be scaly, smooth, or pus-coated Not sure how its caused, most likely genetic No prevention
smooth muscle
Involuntary muscle found inside many internal organs of the body
cardiac muscle
Involuntary muscle tissue found only in the heart. looks like bacon.
stratified squamous epithelium
Locations: surface of skin; lining of mouth, throat, esophagus, rectum, anus, and vagina Functions: provides physical protection against abrasion, pathogens, and chemical attack
Serous membrane
Membrane that lines a cavity without an opening to the outside of the body. Serous membranes have two layers. The parietal layers of the membranes line the walls of the body cavity. The visceral layer of the membrane covers the organs. Between the parietal and visceral layers is a very thin, fluid-filled serous space, or cavity filled with serous fluid.
Skin Cancer
Most common type of cancer caused by uv degradation Malignant or benign Squamous or Basal in location Prevention: avoid uv exposure. People with lighter skin have increased risk of skin cancer. Use sunscreen.
Measles
Respiratory infection caused by virus Highly infections Can be fatal in children Preventable by vaccine Originally called Rubeola Rash, runny nose, fever, cough Single-stranded RNA virus MMR vaxx - measles mumps and rubella 12 months and up can get MMRV (measles, mumps, rubella, and varicella (chicken pox))
progeria
a rare syndrome in children characterized by physical signs and symptoms suggestive of premature old age. displays as: - Brittle joints - Aged skin - Beaked nose - Cataracts - Hair thinning - Baldness No cure.

Chicken pox and shingles
varicella zoster virus. Starts at chest, back, and face. Affects the unvaccinated or those with weakened immune systems. the virus is contagious (airborne virus) while a rash is present. Once you get chicken pox, it never leaves your body. You might get it again around age 50, this is called shingles. People with shingles can spread chickenpox to people who have not had it
