There are three main types of cell junctions: occluding junctions, adhering junctions, and communicating junctions. Occluding junctions, also called tight junctions, form impermeable barriers between cells. Adhering junctions such as desmosomes anchor cells together through transmembrane proteins. Communicating junctions, including gap junctions, contain channels that allow small molecules to pass between cells and facilitate cell-cell communication.

The cytoskeleton is a structure that helps cells maintain their shape and internal organization, and it also provides mechanical support that enables cells to carry out essential functions like division and movement. There is no single cytoskeletal component. Rather, several different components work together to form the cytoskeleton.
detail notes on connective tissue..
Connective tissue (CT) is one of the four basic types of animal tissue, along with epithelial tissue, muscle tissue, and nervous tissue. It develops from the mesoderm. Connective tissue is found in between other tissues everywhere in the body, including the nervous system. In the central nervous system, the three outer membranes (the meninges) that envelop the brain and spinal cord are composed of connective tissue.
All connective tissue consists of three main components: fibers (elastic and collagenous fibers), ground substance and cells. Not all authorities include blood or lymph as connective tissue because they lack the fiber component. All are immersed in the body water.

I give this lecture on cell adhesion and cell migration in the Cell Biology and Genetics course for first-year veterinary students. The core material comes from Molecular Biology of the Cell, Fifth Edition, but I have added multiple clinical examples and placed the material in the context of the translational medicine component of the course.
The study of the cell cycle focuses on mechanisms that regulate the timing and frequency of DNA duplication and cell division. As a biological concept, the cell cycle is defined as the period between successive divisions of a cell. During this period, the contents of the cell must be accurately replicated.
The cell cycle is regulated by cyclins and cyclin-dependent kinases.
How long is one cell cycle?
Depends. Eg. Skin cells every 24 hours. Some bacteria every 2 hours. Some cells every 3 months. Cancer cells very short. Nerve cells never.
Programmed cell death:
Each cell type will only do so many cell cycles then die. (Apoptosis)
Chapter-6Cell Cycle and DivisionCell Divisio.docxchristinemaritza
Chapter-6
Cell Cycle and Division
Cell Division
Cells reproduce by cell division, in which a parent cell normally gives rise to two daughter cells
Each daughter cell receives a complete set of hereditary information (DNA) from the parent cell and about half its cytoplasm
The hereditary information DNA is usually identical with that of the parent cell
The cell division of eukaryotic cells by which organisms grow or increase in number is called mitotic cell division
After cell division, the daughter cells may differentiate, becoming specialized for specific functions
The repeating pattern of divide, grow, and differentiate, then divide again is called the cell cycle
Most multicellular organisms have three categories of cells
1. stem cells
2. Other cells capable of dividing
3. Permanently differentiated cells
1.Stem cells :
- have two important characteristics: self-renewal, and the ability to differentiate into a variety of cell types
-Stem cells self-renew because they retain the ability to divide, perhaps for the entire life of the organism
-Some stem cells in early embryos can produce any of the specialized cell types of the entire body
2. Other cells capable of dividing
-Some cells other than stem cells are capable of continuing to divide, but typically differentiate into only one or two different cell types
-Dividing liver cells, for example, can only become more liver cells
3. Permanently differentiated cells
-Permanently differentiated cells differentiate and never divide again
-For example, most heart and brain cells cannot divide
CELL CYCLE
Both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells have cell cycles that include growth, metabolic activity, DNA replication, and cell division
However, they have major structural and functional differences
Eukaryotic chromosome
Eukaryotic chromosomes are separated from the cytoplasm by a membrane-bound nucleus
Eukaryotic cells always have multiple chromosomes
Eukaryotic chromosomes are longer and have more DNA than prokaryotic chromosomes (human chromosomes are 10 to 80 times longer and have 10 to 50 times more DNA)
Genes
Genes are segments of the DNA of a chromosome
Genes are sequences of DNA from hundreds to thousands of nucleotides long
Each gene occupies a specific place, or locus (plural, loci) on the chromosome
Two important parts of chromosome
Two telomeres
One centromere
It temporarily holds two daughter DNA double helices together after DNA replication
It is the attachment site for microtubules that move the chromosomes during cell division
Homologous
11
Chromosomes that contain the same genes are called homologous chromosomes, or homologues
Cells with pairs of homologous chromosomes are called diploid, which means “double”
Cells with half the number of chromosomes are called haploid
Human Chromosomes

How to Create Map Views in the Odoo 17 ERPCeline George
The map views are useful for providing a geographical representation of data. They allow users to visualize and analyze the data in a more intuitive manner.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Cell junctions and cell division
1.
2.
Intercellular space in closely packed tissue is about
20nm. The cells are bound together by the specific
adhesive glycoprotein.
Epithelial cells adhere to each other through
glycoproteins called Cadherins
Modified cell membranes contributing in cohesion
and communication are called Cell junctions
Cell Junctions
3.
There are three types of Cell Junctions
1. Occluding Junctions
2. Adhering Junctions
3. Communicating Junctions
Types of Cell Junctions
4.
Found in epithelial tissues
Also known as “Tight Junctions”
Do not allow passage of small molecules form
impermiable membrane.
Types:
Zonula Occludens
Fascia Occludens
Occluding Junctions
5.
Encircles the entire cell perimeter
Occludes the intercellular space
Series of focal fusions
The adjacent cell membranes approach each other,
outer leaflets fuse, diverge again then fuse again
At fusions sites specific trans membranous proteins
named (Occludins, and Claudins) perform the
binding function
Less in PCT and more in the intestinal mucosa
Zonula Occludens
7.
A strip like tight junction of limited extent
Found between the endothelial cells of the blood
vessels
Fascia Occludens
8.
Anchoring junctions
Provide cell-cell or cell to basal lamina adherence
Types:
Zonula adherens
Fascia adherencs
Macula adherens (Desmosomes)
Hemidesmosomes
Adhering Junctions
9.
A belt like junction
No fusion of cell membranes
Trans membranous glycoprotein “E-cadherin”
occupies intercellular gap
E-cadherin links to adherent proteins in cytoplasm
which are:
Catenin
Vinculin
Zonula Adherens
10.
Structurally it is similar to Zonula adherence
But its cell junction is strip-like and (not ring-like or
belt-like)
i.e. Cardiac muscle cells.
Fascia Adherens
11.
Macula adherins are commonly known as desmosomes
“Spot-weld” like junctions
Randomly distributed along lateral plasma membranes
of the cells in simple epithelium
In stratified epithelium it is distributed throughout the
plasma membrane
It is also found in cardiac muscle cells
Desmosomes
12.
Cell membrane in the region of junctions are seen
further apart (30mm) than the usual gap
Electron dense attachment plaques are located
opposite to each other on the cytoplasmic aspects
Intermediate filaments of the cytoskeleton are
anchored to the attachment plaques
Two types of transmembranes glycoproteins named
Desmocolins and Desmogleins provide adherence
Desmosomes
14.
These junctions serve to anchor the epithelial cells to
the basal lamina
A hemidesmosome is a spot like adhering junction
which gives appearance of a half desmosome
In hemidesmosome transmembrane linker proteins
are integrins
The cytoplasmic intermediate filaments of keratin
are inserted in to the attachment plaque
Hemidesmosomes
16.
Characterized by presence of minute tubular
passageways
Provide direct cell to cell communication
Tubular passages allow movement of ions and other
small molecules between adjacent cells
Communicating
Junctions
17.
Gap junction also called the “Nexus” which are
communication junctions, occur frequently between
the epithelial cells
Also found in cardiac muscle cells, smooth muscles,
neurons, astrocytes, and osteocytes
Plasma membrane of the adjoining cells are closely
opposed with a gap of only 2nm
The gap junction contains closely packed numerous
tubular intercommunicating channels
Gap Junction
18.
The lumens of the channels of gap junction have an
average diameter of 1.5nm
These channels permit free passage of ions, sugar
and amino acids
In cardiac and smooth muscles the gap junction
provides electrical coupling of the adjacent cells
Gap junctions are frequently found in embryonic
cells
Gap Junctions
21.
Static cell population
The cells incapable of mitotic division i.e.
Neurons
Cardiac Cells
Stable Cell population
Division occurs on stimulation as a result of an
injury or a disease
Renewing Cell population
Undergoes regular mitotic division i.e. epidermis of
skin and epithelial lining of GIT
Cell Renewal
22.
Cells belonging to renewing population undergoes a sequence of
events which are repeated over and over again
The cycle is divided in to two parts
M PHASE: in which mitosis occurs (30 to 60 minutes)
INTERPHASE: it is intervening period between two cell divisions
consist of three sub phases
1- The G1 Phase (GAP-1)
- During this phase synthesis of RNA and proteins occur s
- Cell size is restored to normal
- The duration of G1 is about 8 hours
Cell Cycle
23.
2- The S-Phase:
- During this synthesis of DNA takes place
- It results in preparation of exact replica of genetic material
and duplication of centrioles
- Duration is 8 hours
3- G2 (GAP-2) Phase:
- It is period between the end of S phase and beginning of
mitosis
- During this process production and accumulation of
energy for mitosis takes place
- Duration is 2 to 4 hours
Cell Cycle
27.
Mitosis
• The process of cell division which results in the
production of two daughter cells from a single parent cell.
• The daughter cells are identical to one another and to the
original parent cell.
28.
Mitosis can be divided into stages
1. Interphase
2. Prophase
3. Metaphase
4. Anaphase
5. Telophase
30.
Chromosomes become visible under LM
Threads become shorter and thicker consist of two
chromatids joined by centromere
Nucleoli disappears
Centrioles separates and migrate
to each pole and starts giving out
mitotic spindle
Prophase
The cell prepares for nuclear division
31.
Chromosomes line up at the center of the cell
Spindle fibers attach from daughter cells to
chromosomes at the centromere
Equatorial plate is formed
Microtubules of mitotic spindle
are attached at centromere
Microtubules exert pull on
chromosomes
Metaphase
The cell prepares chromosomes for division
32.
Spindle fibers pull chromosomes apart
½ of each chromosome (called chromatid) moves to
each daughter cell
Chromatids separate and move to respective poles as
an independent chromosome
In human cell two identical sets of
46 chromosomes move to the
opposite poles
Anaphase
The chromosomes divide
33.
A constriction called cleavage furrow appears in
the middle of elongated cell
Nuclear envelop is formed enclosing
chromosomes
2 nuclei form
Cell wall pinches in to form the
2 new daughter cells
Telophase
The cytoplasm divides
37.
• Meiosis is the type of cell division by which germ
cells (eggs and sperm) are produced.
• One parent cell produces four daughter cells.
• Daughter cells have half the number of chromosomes
found in the original parent cell
Meiosis
38.
During meiosis, DNA replicates once, but the
nucleus divides twice.
Four stages can be described for each division of the
nucleus.
Meiosis
40.
Prophase is much longer consisting of five stages
1. Leptotene: Chromosomes becomes visible in the nucleus
2. Zygotene: Homologus chromosomes come together along
their entire length and synapses are formed
3. Pachytene: Chromosomes become thicker and shorter
Each chromosome pair is called bivalent
4. Diplotene: Chromosomes began to separate along their
length. Each bivalent consists of four chromatids
5. Diakinesis: Separation of chromosomes continue.
Nucleolus and the nuclear envelop disappears
Prophase
41.
A spindle of microtubules is produced by centrioles
Equatorial plate is formed
The bivalent chromosome pairs align in the centre of
the spindle
Metaphase
42.
Chromosomes of homologous pairs completely
separates and move to the opposite poles
No division of centromere occurs and the whole
chromosomes move to opposite poles
Anaphase
43.
Nuclei are reconstructed
The parent cell is divided in to two daughter cells
Each daughter cell contains haploid (23)
chromosomes
Each chromosome is double structured consisting of
two sister chromatids
Telophase
46.
Differences in Mitosis & Meiosis
Mitosis
Asexual
Cell divides once
Two daughter cells
Genetic information is
identical
Meiosis
Sexual
Cell divides twice
Four haploid daughter
cells
Genetic information is
different
