Cells are the basic structural and functional unit of all multicellular organisms. Cells can be divided into two major components: Cytoplasm Nucleus.

2

With the L/M, Cytoplasm generally has an even, homogenous, amorphous appearance but may show granular, fibrillar, or vacuolated areas. Cytoplasm contains “organelles” and “inclusions”in aqueous gel called cytoplasmic matrix,

 Plasma

membrane is a lipid bilayered structure that form the cell boundary as well as the boundaries of many organelles within the cell. It is visible with TEM.  It is a dynamic structure that actively participates in many physiologic and biochemical activities essential to cell function and survival. 8



When plasma membrane is properly fixed, sectioned, stained and viewed on edge with TEM, it appears as two electron dense layers separated by an intermediate, electron lucent (non staining) layer.



Total thickness is about 8 – 10 nm.

Inserted in membrane  Some entirely extend through membrane  Perform many important functions 

14

Integral membrane proteins can be visualized with the special tissue preparation technique of freeze fracture. 

Usually the P-face display more particles ,thus more protein ,than the E-face.

E face

P-face

Micro domains of plasma membrane known as lipid rafts control the movement and distribution of proteins within lipid bilayers.

16





Localized regions with in the plasma membrane contain high concentration of cholesterol and glycosphingolipids. These regions are called lipid rafts. Owing to high concentration of cholesterol and the presence of longer, highly saturated fatty acid chain, the lipid raft area is thicker and exhibits less fluidity than the plasma membrane.

17

Lipid rafts contain a verity of integral and peripheral membrane proteins involved in cell signalling.  They can be viewed as “signalling platforms ” floating in the ocean of lipids.  Signal transduction in lipid rafts occurs more rapidly and efficiently because of close proximity of interacting proteins. 

18

Integral membrane proteins have important functions in cell metabolism, regulation and integration. Six broad categories of membrane proteins have been defined in terms of their function: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.

Pumps Channels Receptor proteins Linker proteins Enzymes Structural proteins

Integral membrane proteins move within lipid bilayers of membrane 19





TRANSPORT IONS serve to transport certain ions such as Na + actively across membrane. Also transport metabolic precursor of macromolecules, such as sugar and amino acid across membrane either by themselves or linked through Na+ pump.

20



Allow Passage of small ions and molecules,and water across the plasma membrane in either direction i.e ,passive diffusion

21

22

26

Channel proteins Carrier proteins

27

Some substances (fat-soluble and small un charged molecules cross the plasma membrane by simple diffusion down their concentration gradient.  All other molecules require membrane transport proteins to provide them with individual passage across the plasma membrane. 

28

Carrier proteins 





Transfer small watersoluble molecules. They are highly selective often transporting only one type of molecules. After binding to a molecule designated for transport, the carrier protein undergoes a series of conformational changes and releases the molecules on the other side of the membrane.

Channel proteins 



Also transfer small, water soluble molecules. Channel proteins create hydrophilic channels through the plasma membrane that regulate the transport of the molecules. They are ion selective and are regulated on the basis of the cell's needs 29

 VESICULAR

TRANSPORT process that involves configurational changes in the plasma membrane & also provides for the transfer of molecules b/w different cellular compartments  It maintains the integrity of plasma membrane

30

EXOCYTOSIS  ENDOCYTOSIS 

31

Processes of vesicular transport in which substances enter the cell are termed as endocytosis Uptake of fluid and macromolecules during endocytosis depends on three different mechanisms 32



PHAGOCYTOSIS



PINOCYTOSIS

33

  





PHAGOCYTOSIS Also called cell eating It is ingestion of large particles, such as cell debris ,bacteria and other foreign materials In this nonselective process large vesicles(250nm) called phagosomes are produced Best seen in macrophages 34

Exocytosis is the process by which a vesicle moves from the cytoplasm to the plasma membrane, where it discharges its contents to the extra cellular space. Two general pathways of exocytosis: Constitutive pathway Regulated secretory pathway

Ca+

37





These are the membrane enclosed compartments in the cytoplasm, associated with all the endocytotic pathways Endosomes can be viewed either as stable cytoplasmic organelles or as transient structures formed as the result of endocytosis.

38

Endosomes destined to become lysosomes receive newly synthesized lysosomal enzymes  Early and late endosomes differ in their cellular localization, morphology and state of acidification and function. 

39

Early endosomes are restricted to portion of cytoplasm near the cell membrane where vesicles originating from the cell membrane fuse.  Large number of vesicles originating in early endosome travell to deeper structures in the cytoplasm called late endosomes.  The late endosomes mature into lysosomes. 

40



Major function of early endosomes is to sort and recycle proteins internalized by endocytotic pathways.

41









Early endosomes

Late endosomes

Found in more peripheral cytoplasm Have a tubovesicular structure. Lumen is subdivided in to cisternae PH 6.2 - 6.5







Found near the Golgi apparatus and the nucleus. More complex structure and often exhibit onionlike internal membrane. PH 5.5

42

Lysosomes are small membrane bound organelles that contain a variety of acid hydrolases. Ribosomes are composed of two different sized subunits.  The RNA molecules of both subunits are synthesized in side the nucleus. 

Their numerous proteins are synthesized in the cytoplasm and then enter the nucleus and associate with rRNA .  Subunits then leave the nucleus via nuclear pores, to enter the cytoplasm and participate in protein synthesis. 

44

They constitute an intracellular digestive system capable of breaking down material originating both outside and within the cell.  Great variety of appearances or pleomorphism. 

45







Usually range from 0.2 – 0.4 um in diameter. Have a unique membrane that is resistant to hydrolytic digestion occurring in their lumen. Lysosomal membrane has an unusual phospholipid structure that contain cholesterol and a unique lipid called lysophosphatidic acid which play an important role in restricting the activity of hydrolytic enzymes directed against the membrane.

46



Found in all cells except erythrocytes but are numerous particularly in: Macrophages Neutrophils Hepatic cells Cells of Proximal tubule of kidney

47

Identified by Electron cytochemistry  Divided into main groups: 

1. Primary lysosomes 2. Secondary lysosomes

48

Newly formed lysosomes that have pinched of from golgi cisternae  Contain all enzymes that are used in cell digestion 

49

Formed by fusion of primary lysosomes with the structure that contains material to be digested  Also called phagosome.digestive vacuole or autophagic vacuole 

50



Hydrolytic breakdown of the contents of the lisosomes often produced a debris-liked vacule called a Residual body.which may remain for the entire life eg residual bodies are a normal feature of the cell aging

51

  



Normal feature of cell aging Debris filled vacuole Produced by break down of contents of

secondary lysosomes Found as age pigment or lipofusin pigment

52



Depending on the nature of digested material, three different pathways deliver material for intracellular digestion in lysosomes: 1.Extra cellular large particles ….. Phagosome and Phagolysosome. 2.Extra cellular small particles …..Endocytotic pathway. 3.Intracellular particles ….. autophagy

53

With TEM, RER appears as a series of interconnected, membrane limited flattened sacs called cisternae, with particles studding the external surface of membrane (ribosomes).

56

Basophilic component of cytoplasm, ergastoplasm-----the areas of cytoplasm that stain blue with basic stains . Ergastoplasm indicates i.e. that component of cytoplasm involved in protein synthesis..

Protein synthesis system of the cell consists of rER and ribosomes

The particles called ribosomes are attached to the membrane of eRE by ribosomal docking proteins

58





 

Membrane of reticulum enclose an intracellular compartment that segregates newly synthesized products. Its main function is synthesis of a secretory protein Synthesis of phospholipids Glycosylation of glycoprotiens

59

On E/M, appear as small, dense particles of about 15 – 20 nm in diameter, roughly spherical but irregular, and each is formed by two subunits, one large and one small. Responsible for cytoplasmic basophilia and they contain RNA and protein. Are sites where amino acids are incorporated into peptides and proteins i.e. site of protein synthesis 60

Found in all cells except mature erythrocytes. May be attached to granular endoplasmic reticulum or may lie free within general cytoplasm. Polysomes or polyribosomes----a cluster of ribosomes along a single strand of mRNA that is engaged in the synthesis of protein.

61

Ribosomes are the sites where mRNA is translated into protein. Proteins destined for transport (secretory, membrane, and lysosomal) are synthesized on polyribosomes bound to rER . whereas proteins not destined for transport (for intracellular use) are synthesized on free polyribosomes in cytosol. Ribosomes are numerous in rapidly growing and dividing cells.

62

63

SER is an irregular network of membrane bounded channels that lacks ribosomes on its surface, which makes it appear smooth.  SER consists of short anastomosing tubules 

64

Membranes are 6 – 7 nm thick, and a tubular lumen of about 50 nm.  May exhibit distinct cytoplasmic eosinophilia.  Tubular elements may connect directly with rER and indirectly with golgi apparatus via small vesicles. 

65

Cells with large amount of SER may exhibit distinct cytoplasmic eosinophilia when viewed under L/M. Biochemically similar to RER but lacks ribosome docking proteins

67

Abundant in cells that function in lipid metabolism, cells that synthesize and secrete steroids (e.g. adrenocortical cells and testicular cells of leydig, progesterone secreting cells of corpus luteum of ovary).  Lipid and steroid metabolism  Glycogen metabolism  Membrane formation and recycling  Synthesis of phospholipids of all cell membrane  Drug detoxification  Muscle contraction and relaxation (specialized form,sarcoplasmic reticulum) 

68



Well developed in secretory cells and does not stain with H & E. May be visible by L/M as either a positive or negative image After routine H & E stains, in cells with intensely basophilic cytoplasm such as osteoblasts & plasma cells, golgi apparatus is indicated as a pale, clear area. This is negative image After silver impregnation or prolonged exposure to osmium tetra oxide, it is seen as darkly staining network of stacked, flattened, membrane limited sacs or cisternae and tubular extensions embedded in a network of microtubules near MTOC----Positive image 69

It is active in cells: That secrete protein by exocytosis In cells that synthesize large amounts of membrane and membrane associated proteins such as nerve cells.

It functions in post translational modification, storing and packaging of proteins. It is involved in membrane flow , in transport and concentration of secretory materials and their release from the cells, in synthesis of certain secretory products, particularly glycoproteins and mucopolysacchrides and probably in lysosome formation 75

87

88

These are nonbranching and rigid hollow tubes of protein that can rapidly disassemble in one location and reassemble in another. In general, they grow from MTOC located near nucleus and extend toward the cell periphery.

89

The region of the cell containing the centrioles and pericentriolar material is called MTOC or Centrosome.  The MTOC is the region where most microtubules are formed and from which they are directed to specific destinations within the cell.  The structures present in MTOC are cilia, basal bodies and centrosomes 

90

Development of MTOC itself depend on presence of centrioles.  When centrioles are missing MTOCs disappear ,and formation of microtubules is severely impaired. 



91

Complex structure of tubulin 92

These are elongated polymeric structures composed of equal parts of α tubulin and β tubulin. Under appropriate conditions tubulin subunits polimerize to form microtubules Microtubules grow from γ tubulin ring within the MTOC that serve as nucleation sites for each microtubule. Each microtubule possesses a minus (non-growing) end and a plus (growing) end. 93

Polymerization and depolymerization are in equilibrium. Length of microtubules changes dynamically as tubulin dimers are added or removed in a process of dynamic instability. These can be visualized in L/M and are involved in intracellular transport and cell motility

94

95

The figure shows the 3-dimensional view of a microtubule being formed. The tubulin molecules are the bead like structures and combine to form long hollow, dynamic polymers, microtubules 96

In general, microtubules are found in: Cytoplasm (where they originate from MTOC) Cilia and flagella (where they form axoneme and its anchoring basal body). Centrioles and mitotic spindle. Elongation processes of cells (such as those in growing axons)

97

Microtubules are involved in numerous essential cellular functions:

Intracellular vesicular transport Attachment of chromosomes to the mitotic spindle and their movement during mitosis and meioses. Cell elongation and movement. Maintenance of cell shape, particularly its asymmetry. Movement of cilia and flagella

98

Movement of intracellular organelles is generated by molecular motor proteins (associated with microtubules) Dyneins Kinesins

Both dyneins and kinesins are involved in mitosis and meiosis. In these activities, dyneins move the chromosome along the microtubules of the mitotic spindle. Kinesins are simultaneously involved in movement of polar microtubule. 99

100









Present in virtually all cell types. Abundant and may constitute 20% of total protein of some non muscle cells. Similar to tubulin in microtubules actin molecules also assemble spontaneously by polymerization into a linear helical array to form filaments 6 – 8 nm in diameter. Thinner, shorter and more flexible than microtubules. 101

G – actin (globular actin),free actin molecule in the cytoplasm F – actin (filamentous actin) polymerized actin of the filament Plus or barbed end,fast growing end Minus or pointed end. slow growing end Polymerization of actin filaments requires K+, Mg2+, ATP Control and regulation of polymerization process depends on: Local concentration of G – actin Interaction of actin binding proteins (ABPs)

105

Play a supporting or general structural role.

Intermediate filaments are formed from non polar and highly variable intermediate filament subunits 106

These rope like filaments are called intermediate because their diameter is 8 – 10 nm (intermediate between actin filaments and microtubules). 107

Characterized by a highly variable central “rod shaped domain” with strictly conserved globular domains at either end.  Although various classes of intermediate filaments differ in the amino acid sequence of rod shaped domain and may show variation in molecular weight, they all share a homogenous region that is important in filament self – assembly. 108

109



Usually found in close proximity to the nucleus, partially surrounded by golgi apparatus and associated with a zone of amorphous, dense pericentriolar material

110

Centrioles represent the focal point around which the MTOC assembles. Visible in L/M, are paired short, rod like cytoplasmic cylinders built from nine microtubule triplets. 111



Arranged at right angle to each other but are not connected with one another

112





The dominant feature of centrioles is the cylindrical array of triplet microtubules with associated proteins. TEM reveals that each rod shaped centriole is about 0.2 µm long and consists of nine triplets of microtubules that are oriented parallel to the long axis of organelle and run in slightly twisted bundles. 113



Functions of the centrioles can be organized into two catagories. ◦ Basal body formation ◦ Mitotic spindle formation



The core structure of the cilium is composed of a complex set of microtubules consisting of two central microtubules surrounded by nine microtubules doublets. 115



 



One of the important function ot the centriole is to provide basal body. Which are necessary for the assembly of cilia and flagella. Basal bodies are formed by the replication of centrioles and give rise to multiple precentrioles . Each precentriole migrate to appropriate site on the surface of the cell where it become a basal body. The basal body act as a organizing center for cilium

116



Microtubules grow upward from the basal body,pushing the cell membrane outward,and alongated to form the mature cilium.

117



Inclusions contain products of metabolic activity of the cell and consist largely of pigment granules, lipid droplets and glycogen.  Lipofuscin  Hemosiderin  Glycogen  Lipid inclusions (fat droplets)  Crystalline inclusions

118



Lipofuscin, is con glo me rate of lipid,metals and organic molecules that accumulate within the cell as a result of oxidative degradation of mitochondria and lysosomal digestion.



Hemosiderin , it is most likely formed by the indigestible residues of hemoglobin,and its presence is related to phagocytosis of RBCs.



Glycogen, is highly branched polymer used as a storage material for glucose. Fat droplets, are nutritive inclusion that provide energy for cellular metabolism.
