CLASSIFICATION OF EPITHELIUM
Depending on the number of cell layers
epithelia are classified into:
Simple(single-layered) epithelia
stratified(multi-layered) epithelia
Transitional Epithelium
Function:
the simple squamous epithelium is for the diffusion
Simple Squamous epithelium
SIMPLE SQUAMOUS EPITHELIUM:
EG: CHEEK CELLS
A-NUCLEUS
B-CYTOPLASM
C-CELL
MEMBRANE
SIMPLE SQUAMOUS EP. SURFACE VIEW
simple cuboidal epithelium
Single layer, height and width the same
Unicellular glands
- consist of single, isolated glandular cells
such as the goblet cells.
- seen along with other non-secreting
epithelial cells
Eg. Intestinal epithelium
Multicellular glands
- are composed of clusters of cells
- develop as a diverticula from epithelial surface.
- distal part develops into the secretory part
- proximal part form the ducts which
opens into epithelial surface.

simple and compound exocrine glands may
have secretory cells arranged in various forms:
Tubular
- straight, branched or coiled
Rounded acini
Flask shaped
Simple tubular
Compound tubular
Compound alveolar
Compound tubulo-alveolar

cells of exocrine glands may exhibit three
different mechanisms for releasing their
secretory products :
holocrine
Merocrine
Apocrine
Modes of secretion: A, holocrine; B, merocrine; C, apocrine.
Holocrine type
In holocrine gland, as the secretory cells mature,
whole cell disintegrates and becomes the
secretory product.
Mucous glands
(mucopolysaccharides, seen collect in the apex of
the cell so the nucleus is pushed to the base)
Serous glands
(protein in nature, cytoplasm granular,
nucleus is central)
Mucous glands
Mucous glands secrete mucinogens, large glycosylated
proteins.
