THE
INTEGUMENTARY
SYSTEM
I. Introduction
A. Basics
1. Consists of skin, hair, nails, and
cutaneous glands.
2. Largest organ of body
• 15-25 sq. ft
• 9 lbs
• 0.5-4.00 mm thick
• Lose ~ 40# skin in lifetime
B. Layers
1. Epidermis
• Epithelial t.
2. Dermis
• Connective t.
3. Hypodermis (subcutaneous t.)
• Loose connective t. (fat)
• Not part of the skin
• Anchors the skin to bone and
muscle tissue
C. Functions
protection
provides a barrier against microorganisms,
water, solar radiation, etc.
Vitamin D
Production
Synthesizes an inactive form of vitamin D
Sensation
Receives incoming messages/stimuli
Thermoregulation
Acts to maintain constant internal body temperature
Excretion (small amount)
Acts to excrete sweat, oil & milk
II. Epidermis
A.General
1.Keratinized,
stratified,
squamous
epithelium
2.New
epidermis
every 35-45
days
II. Epidermis
A. General
3. Callus – gross
thickening due
to friction
4. Blister – acute
trauma leads to
separation of
dermis and
epidermis
II. Epidermis
B. Cell types
II. Epidermis
B. Cell types
1. Keratinocytes cells that produce
fibrous protein keratin.
2.Keratin is a sulfur rich,tough, water
repellant protein
(the sulfur gives a distinct odor when hair, fur, skin or
leather burns)
3.protects the skin and the underlying
tissues from heat, microbes, abrasion
and chemicals
4.Produced in deepest layer
II. Epidermis
B. Cell types
B. Cell types
2. Melanocytes
•Produce pigment melanin
•Pigment is phagocytized by
keratinocytes
•Melanin protect keratinocytes from
UV radiation yet Excessive sun
exposure causes elastic fibers to
clump leading to leathery skin &
depresses skin immunity.
Normal skin color determinants
 Melanin
Yellow, brown or black pigments
 Carotene
Orange-yellow pigment from some
vegetables
 Hemoglobin
Red coloring from blood cells in dermis
capillaries
Oxygen content determines the extent of
red coloring
B. Cell types
3. Merkel’s cells
• Associated w/nerve cell
endings – touch reception in
fingertips
4. Langerhans’ cells
• Macrophage-like
• Defend against microorganisms
• Found in Stratum Spinosum
II. Epidermis
C. 5 Layers
Hint to remember the layers:
Can Little Girls Speak German
or British
• Can
• Little
• GiRls
• SPeak
• GERMan/
• British
Corneum
Lucidum
GRanulosum
SPinosum
GERMinativum
or Basale
II. Epidermis
1. Stratum Basalis
• AKA:Stratum Germinativum
• Single layer of cuboidal
cells
• Mitotic
•10-25% melanocytes
deposited here.
•Responsible for
generating the layers
above it
1. Stratum Basalis
• Receive nutrients by
diffusion from dermis
• Contains keratinocytes
melanocytes &
Merkel’s cells/disks (light
touch receptors)
•It takes 60-75 days for cells
in this layer to reach the
outermost surface
2. Stratum Spinosum
• Called the “Spiny or
prickly Layer” (8-10
layers thick)
• Less mitotic ~ less
nutrition received.
• Cells are many
sided keratinocytes
often called “Prickle
Cells”
2. Stratum Spinosum
• Scattered among
keratinocytes
are Langerhans’
cells (immunity
cells)
Note: The Stratum Basalis
and Stratum Spinosum
•contain the only epidermal cells
that receive adequate nourishment
by way of diffusion.
•As the daughter cells are pushed
upward, away from the source of
nutrition, they gradually die and
their soft protoplasm becomes
keratinized (hard).

3. Stratum
Granulosum
Layer has
granules w/i it’s
cytoplasm
Keratinization
begins
Cells begin to die
Thin layer 3-5 cell
layers
4. Stratum Lucidum
• Clear layer
• Found in thick
skin only as
palms and soles
of feet
• Contain Keratin
fibrils
• Cells begin to
degenerate
5. Stratum Corneum
•
•
•
Horny Layer
20-30 cell = ¾of
thickness.
Keratin in this layer
prevents water loss
due to lipids in
surrounding cells,
adds strength due
to keratinization &
exfoliaiton prevents
abrasion of cells.
5. Stratum Corneum
• Consists of dead flat
keratinized
cells being sloughed
off
• Forms from the
embryological
ectoderm germ
layer.
(stratified squamous)
(conreum means horn)

skin’s body functions occur here
Known as the “true skin” because most of the
III. Dermis aka: hide
A. General
1. Strong,
flexible,
connective
tissue
2. Thickness:
0.6 – 3 mm
III. Dermis
A. Has collagen
gives skin
toughness & plumpness due to water attraction,
elastic
&
reticular fibers
give skin an elastic quality
(as we age, a
decrease in collagen & elastic fibers allows skin to sag)

Homeostatic Imbalance
• A decubitus ulcer (bed sore) can occur in bedridden
patients who are not turned regularly or who are
dragged across the bed repeatedly due to their own
body weight restricting the normal flow of blood to
the skin.
IV. Hypodermis aka
superficial fascia
1. Areolar and
adipose tissue
2. Contains lots of
Elastic fibers that
attach the skin to
the muscle below
3. Insulates, absorbs
shock, stores fat,
½ of body’s stored
fat is here.

V. Skin Appendages
B. Hair
1. Is fused keratinized
cells
2. Protects against
• Scalp injury
• Sun
• Heat loss
3. Blonds have more hair
than dark haired people.
3. Hair
• Hair is a slender filament of mostly
dead keratinized epithelial cells that
grow from a follicle
• Is a derative of the modified stratum
corneum
• The hair consists of the medulla, a core
of loose cells and air spaces,
surrounded by a cortex, which is
densely packed keratinized cells.
• The cortex is covered by the cuticle.
3. Hair
•The bulb is a swelling at the
base where the hair originates;
the root is the remainder of the
hair within the follicle; and the
shaft is the portion of the hair
above the skin surface.
•Erector pili muscles are smooth
muscle
V. Skin Appendages

surface
• Shape
determines
curliness
– Round =
straight
– Oval = wavy
– Flat = kinky
Note:
The root
and
shaft
are
made of
3 tubes
Note: 3 tubes
• cuticle: outer tube
1 layer of heavily keratinized
cells.
• cortex: middle tube
several layers of cells w/ pigments in
dark hair and air bubbles in white
hair.
• medulla: inner tube
made of 2 -3 rows of cells with
pigments and air spaces.
B. Hair Follicle
• Hair Bulb Matrix
produces hair
• Inner epidermal
sheath made of
epithelial tissue
• Outer dermal
sheath made of
dermal connective
tissue.
• Arrector pili muscle
– goose bumps
V. Skin Appendages
B.Hair
4. Split ends – cuticle
wears away
5. Color results from melanin (black,
brown, yellow)
6. Hair growth/loss – depends on genes,
stress, illness, malnutrition, hormone levels,
some hair styles (ie tight braids), excessive
combing, & styling (w/use of hair chemicals)
& Excessive exercise
Cycle of Hair Growth
• Newly formed hair cells move up the follicle as
newer cells form beneath.
• As the cells dry out & fill w/keratin the hair cells
begin to harden & die.
V. Skin Appendages/ Hair
B. Kinds of hair
Lanugo – fine downy hair present in fetus and
replaced at birth.
Vellus hair: fine pale body hair of
women and children. Approx 2/3 of hair in ♀ and
1/10 in ♂ and all hair in children, except eyebrows,
eyelashes and scalp hair.
Terminal hair: coarse, pigmented male
body hair. Forms eyebrows, eyelashes, scalp
and pubic, axillary, and facial hair after puberty.

C. Nails
Stratum basale extends beneath the nail
bed
The nail contains a free edge, a body, &
nail root.
Eponchium (cuticle) is the proximal nail
fold that projects onto the nail body.
Lunula is the half moon shaped portion of
the nail that lacks pigmentation.
Subungal Hematoma: blood clot beneath
the nail.
V. Skin Appendages/Exocrine Glands
D. Sudoriferous Glands = Sweat Glands
1. Two types: Eccrine or Merocrine & Apocrine
2. Both secrete sweat, which evaporates & cools the
body.
3. Sweat is odorless but when it mixes w/the skin’s
natural bacterial, sweat’s proteins & fats feed the
bacteria causing a musky, unpleasant odor.
4. Merocrine/Eccrine Glands–are the most numerous
& located all over the body especially in palms of the
hands & soles of the feet. (Mainly produce sweat which is mostly water
plus some salts, Vit. C, traces of metabolic wastes like ammonia & urea, & lactic acid therefore
it’s acidic.)
V. Skin Appendages/ Exocrine Glands
D. Sudoriferous Glands : Sweat glands
5. Apocrine Glands: located mostly in axillary & the
genital regions & around the anus. Secrete sweat that
contains fatty acids, proteins, which can give it a milky
or yellowish color. Usually begin functioning during
puberty & quit working in old age.
6. Mammary Glands are considered modified
apocrine sweat glands.
V. Composition & Function of Sweat
Glands
 Made mostly of water, some metabolic
wastes & fatty acids & proteins (apocrine)
 Function

VII. HOMEOSTASIS & TISSUES
A. Inflammatory Response
1.Inflammation produces swelling,
redness, heat, tenderness, and a
loss of function at the inflamed
site.
VII. HOMEOSTASIS & TISSUES
A. Inflammatory Response
An infection is an inflammation
produced by an invading
organism, such as a bacterium.
B. Inflammatory Response
2. Sequence of Events
homeostasis disturbed 
mast cells release chemicals 
blood flow and permeability
increases 
clot formation isolates area 
phagocytes remove debris and
microorganisms 
homeostasis returns
Injury and Repair
•
•
The skin can regenerate after injury.
After injury there are four stages of healing:
1.
2.
3.
4.
After injury bleeding usually occurs into the site.
Clot or scab forms at the surface of the epidermis.
Granulation occurs and the clot dissolves.
Scar tissue forms and the extent of scarring depends on
the degree of the injury.
2 types of Tissue Repair
1. Regeneration
 Replacement of destroyed tissue by the
same kind of cells
2. Fibrosis
 Repair by dense fibrous connective tissue
(scar tissue)
 Determination method for repair type:
 Type of tissue damaged
 Severity of the injury

Slide 3.69
Events in Tissue Repair
 Capillaries become very permeable
 Introduce clotting proteins
 Wall off injured area
 Formation of granulation tissue
 Regeneration of surface epithelium

Slide 3.70
Regeneration of Tissues
 Tissues that regenerate easily
 Epithelial tissue
 Fibrous connective tissue and bone
 Tissues that regenerate poorly
 Skeletal muscle
 Tissues that are replaced largely with scar
tissue
 Cardiac muscle
 Nervous tissue within the brain and spinal cord

Slide 3.71
Developmental Aspects of Tissue
 Epithelial tissue arises from all three
primary germ layers
 Muscle and connective tissue arise from
the mesoderm
 Nervous tissue arises from the
ectoderm
 With old age there is a decrease in
mass and viabililty in most tissues
