THYROID GLAND
THYROID GLAND Located in the anterior neck region adjacent to the larynx and trachea Consists of two lateral lobes united by an isthmus Develops from the endodermal lining of the floor of the primitive pharynx Composed of connective tissue septa and follicles
MAIN FUNCTION Synthesize the thyroid hormones ,[object Object]
Tri – iodothyronine (T3)
Calcitonin,[object Object]
STROMA Thin loose areolar connective tissue capsule ,[object Object],Coarse and fine collagenous fibers Presence of fibroblasts and blood vessels
STROMA A low-power micrograph of thyroid gland shows the thin capsule (C), from which septa (S) with the larger blood vessels, lymphatics, and nerves enter the gland
FOLLICULAR EPITHELIUM Surrounds each follicle Composed of reticular fibers and network of capillaries Can be simple squamous, cuboidal, or low columnar epithelium
THYROID FOLLICLE ,[object Object]
Roughly spherical cyst-like compartment
Wall formed by follicular epithelium
Central cavity contains a gelatinous substance called colloid
large glycoprotein thyroglobulin, precursor for the active thyroid hormones,[object Object]
Parafollicular cells,[object Object]
FOLLICULAR CELLS Principal cells Most numerous cell type Cuboidal in shape with spherical nucleus Periods of  increased activity – cells are more columnar and colloid is less abundant
FOLLICULAR CELLS Periods of decreased activity – cells are squamous and colloid content increases Exhibit organelles  ,[object Object]
Synthesize, release, and store their product outside their cytoplasm
Secretion and synthesis of T3 and T4,[object Object]
PARAFOLLICULAR CELLS C (clear) cells Larger than follicular cells Contain secretory granules Can occur either alone or in clumps Synthesize and secrete calcitonin
PARAFOLLICULAR CELLS RED– Follicle with colloid BLUE – Parafollicular cells PINK – Retracted or distorted colloid
FOLLICULAR AND C CELLS C cells may be part of the follicular epithelium or present singly or in groups outside of follicles. Follicular cells (F) can usually be distinguished from C cells (C) by the smaller size and darker staining properties. Unlike follicular cells, C cells seldom vary in their size or pale staining characteristics.

Notes de l'éditeur

  1.  TEM of the follicular epithelium shows pseudopodia and microvilli extending from the follicular cells (F) into the colloid of the lumen (L). The cells have apical junctional complexes, much RER, well-developed Golgi complexes, and many lysosomes. Inside the basement membrane (BM) of the follicle, but often not contacting the colloid in the lumen, are occasional C or parafollicular cells (C). To the left and right of the two C cells seen here are capillaries intimately associated with the follicular cells, but outside the basement membrane
  2. A TEM of a C cell, with its large Golgi apparatus (G), extensive RER, and cytoplasm filled with small secretory granules containing calcitonin.
