This document provides an overview of epithelial and connective tissues. It begins with definitions of tissue and the four main tissue types. It then focuses on epithelial tissues, discussing their characteristics, classification, and examples like squamous, cuboidal, columnar and transitional epithelium. Glands are also covered. The document concludes with a discussion of connective tissues, including their cells, extracellular matrix, protein fibers and ground substance. The main connective tissue types like areolar, adipose and reticular are defined.

This presentation has a short introduction about the different types of tissues (epithelium, connective, muscular, nervous), but focuses mainly on epithelial tissues - its characteristics, functions, and types.
This also contains the different surface modifications of epithelial tissues - apical, lateral and basal.
Lastly, glands are also discussed here. Endocrine and exocrine glands are differentiated based on characteristics and functions.

Introduction
The term tissue is used to describe a group of cells found together in the body.
Types of tissues
1. Epithelial tissue:]
2. Connective tissue: ]
3. Muscular tissue: ]
4. Nervous tissue: ]
-Development of Tissues
Tissues of the body develop from three primary germ layers: Ectoderm, Endoderm and Mesoderm.
1. Epithelial cell
Epithelial tissue consists of cells arranged in continuous sheets, in either single or multiple layers.
Closely packed and held tightly together.
-General Features of Epithelial Cells:
1. Apical (free) surface
2. Lateral surfaces
3. Basal surface
Basement membrane
Basal lamina
Reticular lamina
-Classification of epithelial tissues
Epithelial tissues are classified according to :
Number of the cell layers formed
1. Simple epithelium (one layer)
2. Stratified epithelium(several layer)
-The shape of the cells
1. Squamous (flat cell)
2. Cuboidal (cube like)
3. Columnar (rectangular)
4. Transitional (variable)
- Glandular Epithelium and Glands
There are main two types of glands
1. Endocrine Glands
2. Exocrine Glands
-Structural Classification of Exocrine Glands
1. Simple gland
2. Compound gland
-Functional Classification of 1. Exocrine Glands
2. Merocrine glands
3. Aprocrine glands
4. Holocrine glands
2. Connective Tissue
-Functions of connective tissues
-Classification of Connective Tissues
Embryonic connective tissue
Mesenchyme
Mucous connective tissue

2. Adipocytes (fat cells)
3. Mast cells
4. White blood cells
5. Macrophages
6. Plasma cells
-Connective Tissue Extracellular Matrix;
Ground substance and fibres make up the ECM.
a. Ground substance
-Complex combination of proteins and polysaccharides (hyaluronic acid, chondroitin sulphate dermatan sulphate and keratan sulphate).
b. Fibres
-Collagen fibers
-Elastic fibers
-Reticular fibers
3. Muscular Tissue
-Skeletal muscle tissue (Attached to bone by tendons)
-Cardiac muscle tissue (Heart wall)
-Smooth muscle tissue (Iris of eyes, walls of hollow internal structures such as blood vessels, airways of lungs, stomach, intestine, gall bladder, urinary bladder and uterus)
--Consists of elongated cells called muscle fibers or myocytes for contraction.
--Cells use ATP to generate force.
4. Nervous Tissue
-Neurons or nerve cells
-Neuroglia
--Exhibit sensitivity to various types of stimuli, converts them into nerve impulses (action potentials) and conducts nerve impulses to other neurons.
Epithelial tissue, also known as the epithelium, is one of the four tissues found in the human body. It exists in various parts of the body, such as our digestive system, outer surfaces of organs and blood vessels throughout the body, as well as the inner surfaces of cavities in many internal organs.

CDSCO and Phamacovigilance {Regulatory body in India}NEHA GUPTA
The Central Drugs Standard Control Organization (CDSCO) is India's national regulatory body for pharmaceuticals and medical devices. Operating under the Directorate General of Health Services, Ministry of Health & Family Welfare, Government of India, the CDSCO is responsible for approving new drugs, conducting clinical trials, setting standards for drugs, controlling the quality of imported drugs, and coordinating the activities of State Drug Control Organizations by providing expert advice.
Pharmacovigilance, on the other hand, is the science and activities related to the detection, assessment, understanding, and prevention of adverse effects or any other drug-related problems. The primary aim of pharmacovigilance is to ensure the safety and efficacy of medicines, thereby protecting public health.
In India, pharmacovigilance activities are monitored by the Pharmacovigilance Programme of India (PvPI), which works closely with CDSCO to collect, analyze, and act upon data regarding adverse drug reactions (ADRs). Together, they play a critical role in ensuring that the benefits of drugs outweigh their risks, maintaining high standards of patient safety, and promoting the rational use of medicines.

Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!
