: After you have studied this lecture, you should be
able to
• Explain the components of connective tissue
• Describe the structures and functions of all types
of cells in connective tissue
• Identify all fibers in connective tissue as well as
their localization in the organs

Dr. Prapee

Connective Tissue (CT)
• Derives from mesoderm
• Mesenchyme pleuripotency)
• Mesenchymal cells can differentiate into
- connective tissue
- bone, cartilage
- blood and hemopoietic cells
- lymphoid cells
Dr. Prapee
3
Characteristic of Connective Tissue
• Consists of a large amount of
extracellular matrix with a limited
number of cells
Dr. Prapee
4
Extracellular Matrix (ECM)
• A complex of nonliving macromolecules
synthesized by the cells
• Some tissue consists of small amount of ECM
• Connective tissue contains a large amount of
ECM with a limited number of cells
• A major component of connective tissue
proper
• Comprises of
- Ground substance – resists forces of
compression
- Fibers – provides tensile force
Dr. Prapee
5
Ground Substance
Consists of
• Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs)
• Proteoglycans
• Adhesive glycoproteins
Dr. Prapee
6
Properties of GAGs
• Long, inflexible, unbranched polysaccharides
• High negative charge
• Repeating disaccharide units
• One of repeating unit is amino sugar which
is sulfated (SO-3)
• Second sugar is uronic acid with a carboxyl
gr. (COO-)
• Retension of positive ions (eg. Na+) together
with water, maintaining tissue architecture
turgor which tend to prevent deformation by
compressive force
Dr. Prapee
7
Structure of GAGs
- Disaccharide units
form covalent linkage
with protein to form
proteoglycans
- Proteoglycans attach
to hyaluronic acid
- Hyaluronic acid,
nonsulfated GAG
Dr. Prapee

Types of GAGs
Dr. Prapee

Struture ofProteoglycan
•Macromolecues
formed by sulfated
GAGs form covalent
bonds with a protein
core
• Structures look
like a bottle brush
• linked to
•Each proteoglycan is covalently
hyaluronic acid forming huge macromolecules,
Aggrecan aggregates
Dr. Prapee

Proteoglycans
•Macromolecues formed by sulfated GAGs form
covalent bonds with a protein core
• Structures look like a bottle brush
• Each proteoglycan is covalently linked to
hyaluronic acid forming huge macromolecules,
Aggrecan aggregates
Dr. Prapee
11
Functions of Proteoglycans
• Resist compression and retard the rapid
movement of microorgani and metastatic
cells
• Form molecular filter (in association with
basal lamina) of varying pore sizes and
charge distributions that selectively screen
and retard macromolecules as they pass
through them
• Contain binding sites of certain signaling
molecules eg. TGF-ß
Dr. Prapee
12
Functions of Proteoglycans and
Hyaluronan during development
• Epithelial branching and differentiation
• Eye development
• Limb development
Dr. Prapee
13
Adhesive Glycoproteins
Large macromolecules have several domains
- at least one domain usually bind to
integrins
- one to collagen fibers
- one to proteoglycans

Dr. Prapee
19
Collagen Fibers

is greater than that of stainless steel of
comparable diameter

diameter
Dr. Prapee

fibrillin), located at the periphery of elastin
Dr. Prapee
26
Elastic fibers
Dr. Prapee
A. Elastin has a random coil
structure in the relax state,
but reforms as a different
random coil on relaxation
B. Elastin molecule are
covalently linked into arrays
which can reversibly stretch
and recoil, and may be
arranged as fibers or sheets
• Elastic fibers are composed of
microfilaments surrounding and
organizing core region of crosslinked elastin
