RESPIRATORY SYSTEM
3
Respiratory system is responsible for oxygen supply of cells and tissues
It includes conducting portion Nasal cavity Nasopharynx Larynx Tracheo-bronchial tree And respiratory portion Pulmonary alveoli
6
Respiratory type epithelium – pseudostratified ciliated
Ciliated cells Goblet cells Basal cells Specialized olfactory area Olfactory cells (modified bipolar neurons) with knobs (olfactory vesicles) and hair-like processes (olfactory cilia) Supporting (sustentacular) cells
12
Tracheo-bronchial epithelium
Ciliated cells (30%) Goblet cells (30%) Basall cells (30%) Brush border cells (3%) Diffuse neuroendocrine (APUD) cells (3%) Serous cells (4%)
19
Bronchiolar epithelium
Ciliated cells Clara cells Basal cells
23
Alveolar epithelium Pneumocytes type I (respiratory)
Pneumocytes type II (secretory) Alveolar macrophages Respiratory barrier
