Overview
There are two broad categories of tissues in all animals: connective tissues and epithelial tissues.
• Connective tissues consist of an extracellular matrix (ECM) produced by cells that are
distributed sparsely in the matrix. The matrix bears most of the mechanical stress to which
the tissue is subjected. Cell-matrix junctions link the cytoskeleton to the matrixcells can
move through the matrix and monitor changes in its mechanical properties.
• Epithelial tissues consist of cells that are tightly bound together into sheets called epithelia.
These tissues have a thin ECM called the basal lamina / basement membrane, which
underlies the sheet.
o Cell-cell junctions attach cells in the epithelium to each other. At these junctions,
cytoskeletal filaments are anchored that transmit stresses through the cells, from
one adhesion to another.
o Cell-matrix junctions link the cytoskeleton to the basal lamina.
o In a simple columnar epithelium, a single layer of tall cells is located on a basal
lamina.
o The apex (uppermost surface of the cells) is exposed to the extracellular medium.
5
,o The cells connect to each other on their lateral surfaces.
o Two types of anchoring junctions link the cytoskeletons of adjacent cells:
▪ Adherens junctions connect actin filament bundles
▪ Desmosomes connected intermediate filaments
o The cytoskeleton is linked to the basal lamina by two additional types of anchoring
junctions:
▪ Actin-linked cell-matrix junctions anchor actin filaments to the matrix
▪ Hemidesmosomes anchor intermediate filaments to the matrix
o There are also tight junctions and gap junctions:
6
, ▪ Tight junctions hold the cells closely together near the apex. This prevents
leakage of molecules across the epithelium.
▪ Gap junctions are located near the basal end of the cells. They are channel-
forming junctions that link the cytoplasm of adjacent cells.
o The four anchoring junction types depend on transmembrane adhesion proteins
that span the plasma membrane. One end links to the cytoskeleton inside the cell
and the other end links to extracellular structures.
o There are two super-families of these proteins:
▪ Cadherins mediate cell to cell attachment
▪ Integrins mediate cell to matrix attachment
o There is specialization within each family: some cadherins link to actin and form
adherens junctions, while others link to intermediate filaments and form
desmosomes; likewise, some integrins link to actin and form actin-linked cell–matrix
junctions, while others link to intermediate filaments and form hemidesmosomes.
Cell-cell junctions
The two types of cell-cell anchoring junctions link the cytoskeleton of one cell with that of its
neighbor. Their main function is to resist the external forces that pull cells apart.
