1、Skin PathologylEpidermis is composed of stratified squamous epithelium with the following layers:Stratum corneum (anucleate, cornified cells) Stratum granulosum (granular layer)squamous cells containing keratohyaline granules Stratum spinosum (prickle cell layer)squamous cells have prominent desmoso
2、mes Stratum basale (basal cell layer)stem cellsSkin PathologylMitotic activity in normal skin should be limited to the basal portion of the epitheliumlMelanin is synthesized in melanocytesDerived from neural crest and located in epidermisMelanosomes are the organelles that synthesize melaninSkin Pat
3、hology Melanin synthesislMelanin is formed when tyrosinase converts tyrosine to 3,4 dihydroxyphenylalanine (DOPA) which is then polymerized in the Golgi apparatus into membrane bound organelles (melanosomes)lSkin color is based on the number and size plus packaging of melanosomes in cells other than
4、 the one in which they were formedSkin Pathology-MelaninlMelanin granules are transferred by dendritic processes from melanocytes to keratinocytesthere the granules protect the skin from UV light effectslBlacks have the same number of melanocytes as whites, but their melanosomes are larger and more
5、numerous and the cells have more dendritic processeslBoth sunlight and ACTH stimulate melanin synthesisSkin PathologylLangerhans cells:antigenprocessing histiocytic cells located in the epidermis that contain Birbeck granules (same as in eosinophilic granulomas)lMerkel cellsNeuroendocrine cells in t
