Connective tissue is the tissue that connects or separates, and supports all the other types of tissues in the body. Like all tissue types, it consists of cells surrounded by a compartment of fluid called the extracellular matrix (ECM). However connective tissue differs from other types in that its cells are loosely, rather than tightly, packed within the ECM.
Nervous System is a uniquely designed organ system of our body. This presentation is highlighting over the cellular configuration of this system. Neurons & Neuroglia are the two main players of the system. Neuron is the structural & functional unit of the system, while, Neuroglia are the supporting elements. At the end of this presentation, the young learner would be able to recognize different cell types of the Nervous system & their exclusive function.

Anatomy and physiology of male reproductive systemPallavi Lokhande
The organs of the male reproductive system include the testes, a system of ducts (including the epididymis, ductus deferens, ejaculatory ducts, and urethra), accessory sex glands (seminal vesicles, prostate, and bulbourethral glands), and several supporting Structures, including the scrotum and the penis.
and knowledge of this system can help in knowing abnormality in it as well as can be used as study material
Pulmonary Thromboembolism - etilogy, types, medical- Surgical and nursing man...VarunMahajani
Disruption of blood supply to lung alveoli due to blockage of one or more pulmonary blood vessels is called as Pulmonary thromboembolism. In this presentation we will discuss its causes, types and its management in depth.
Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection
The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS

Dr Sujoy Dasgupta presented the study on "Couples presenting to the infertility clinic- Do they really have infertility? – The unexplored stories of non-consummation" in the 13th Congress of the Asia Pacific Initiative on Reproduction (ASPIRE 2024) at Manila on 24 May, 2024.
2. General Organization of Male
reproductive system
• TESTIS
• Ductus Epididymis
• Ductus (vas) deferens
• Male accessory Glands ,Urethra and Penis
3.
4. TESTIS
• covered by a dense collagenous coat called
the tunica albuginea.
• Septa extend into the testis to separate the
lobules.
• Most of the testis is occupied by highly coiled
somniferous tubules.
• Stroma loose CT, lack smooth muscles , highly
vascular, contains INTERSTITIAL CELLS
6. Testicular capsule
• Tunica albuginea-
• dense white fibrous capsule
• composed of dense irregular connective
tissue,
• forming septa that divide each testis into
series internal compartments called lobules
7. - The seminiferous tubules are composed
of spermatogonia located at the base of
the epithelium with large round nuclei.
- Spermatogonia give rise to primary
spermatocytes, with larger nuclei
midwsay up in the epithelium. The nuclei
are round with distinct bundles of dense
chromosomes. These cells are in extended
prophase of the first meiotic division.
- The primary spermatocytes further
develop into spermatids located higher up
in the epithelium toward the lumen. The
round nuclei become smaller, denser, and
change shape into the heads of mature
sperm, or spermatozoa.
8.
9. SEMINIFEROUS TUBULES
• Basement membrane surrounds stratified
GERMINAL EPITHELIUM.
• spermatogonia located at the base of the
epithelium with large round nuclei.
• primary spermatocytes, with larger nuclei
midways up in the epithelium.
10. • The primary spermatocytes further develop
into spermatids located higher up in the
epithelium toward the lumen.
• mature sperm, or spermatozoa.
11.
12.
13. Spermatogenesis
• Process where the spermatogenic cells in the
seminiferous tubules divide, differentiate, and
produce sperm.
• 3 phases
– Mitotic division of spermatogonia
– Meiotic division of spermatocytes, somatic
chromosome no. – spermatids
– Spermiogenesis morphological transformation spermatids
sperm.
14.
15. SERTOLI CELLS (SUPPORTING CELLS)
• are large, relatively pale and irregularly
shaped.
• Broad base rest on basement membrane.
• Nucleus basal and wrinkled with a prominent
nucleolus.
• long, apical cytoplasmic folds.
16. Sertoli cells contd ….
• Form hemidesmosomes with BM.
• Temporary junctions with germinal cells.
• Adjacent cells join by Tight Junctions.
17. Functions of Sertoli cells
physical support, protection and nutrition
of the developing sperm (spermatids)
• Phagocytosis of cytoplasm developing
sperm (spermatids)
• Produce and release ABP.
20. Testes produce both testosterone and
sperm
• LH and FSH are produced by the pituitary gland.
• LH binds to receptors on the interstitial cells
(Leydig cells) and stimulate testosterone.
• FSH stimulates Sertoli cells to synthesize and
release ABP (androgen-binding protein) into
seminiferous tubules to stimulate
spermatogenesis.
• ↑ concentration of testosterone essential for
proper spermatogenesis.
21. Blood testis barrier
• Lateral processes of Sertoli cells are
interconnected by tight junctions, which are
the structural basis for the blood-testis barrier.
• Subdivides each somniferous tubule into:
• BASAL COMPARTMENT
• ADLUMINAL COMPARTMENT
• autoimmune system response.
• Keeps harmful substances of blood away.
27. Straight testicular tubules
• Connect seminiferous tubules to Rete testis.
• Short and straight course.
• Simple squamous /Simple columnar.
• Epithelium contain macrophages, lymphocytes.
• Terminal segment may function as a valve.
29. Rete Testis
• Irregularly anstomosing channels surrounded
by loose CT.
• Most part present in Mediastinum Testis.
• Elastic fibers and contractile cells present
underneath the epithelium.
31. Efferent Ductules
• The rete testis lead into the efferent ductules.
• towards the head of the epididymis.
• Epithelium simple columnar (ciliated/Non
ciliated).
• serrated or scalloped epithelial lining.
• Ciliated cell no.
• Three to six layers Myofibroblast +loose CT
48. Terminal Portion (AMPULLA Of Ductus Deferens)
The terminal portion of the ductus deferens enlarges into an ampulla.
Mainly mucosa is different.
• The lumen of the ampulla is larger than that of the ductus deferens.
• The mucosa also exhibits numerous irregular, branching mucosal
folds and glandular diverticula or crypts located between the folds
that extend to the surrounding muscle layer.
• The secretory epithelium and the glandular diverticula is simple
columnar or cuboidal.
• Below the epithelium is the lamina propria .
• Muscularis consists of a thin inner longitudinal muscle layer , a
thick middle circular muscle layer
and a thin outer longitudinal muscle layer .
adventitia surrounds the ampulla.
51. Penis
• The two corpora cavernosa and single corpus
spongiosum form the erectile tissue of the
penis. - The deep artery within the corpus
cavernosum.
- The urethra within the corpus spongiosum
53. THE MALE ACCESSORY GLANDS
• The seminal vesicles
• The prostate gland
• The Bulbo urethral gland
54. The Seminal Vesicle
• Location :
• on the posterior side of the bladder and
lateral to the ampulla of the ductus deferens.
• Compound Tubuloacinar gland.
• Mucosa_ folded_psd.st. col. Epithelium.
• Fat cells-
57. The prostate Gland
• The prostate gland is an exocrine gland
located inferior to the bladder.
