  1. Need for communication • Why to communicate/ cordinate • 1……. • 2……. • 3…………. • Communication levels • Cellular level • Tissue • Organ level • Environment

  2. TYPES OF COMMUNICATION • Cell’s direct signaling or intracellular communication • Direct cell contacts • Extra cellular communication or chemical signaling • Paracrine • Autocrinesignaling • Endocrine signaling • Synaptic signaling

  3. CELL TO CELL CONTACTS/ JUNCTIONS • vertebrates, 3 Types • 1. Anchoring Junctions (connect the cytoskeletons of adjacent cells) • Desmosomes • Hemidesmosomes • Adherens Junctions • 2. Communicating (GAP) junctions (permit small molecules to pass between cells) • 3. Tight Junctions (occluding junctions), create sheets of cells

  4. VERTEBRATES A: Anchoring Junctions Anchoring proteins extend through the plasma membrane to link cytoskeletalproteins in one cell to cytoskeletal proteins in neighbouring cells as well as to proteins in the extracellular matrix .

  5. VERTEBRATES B: Communicating (GAP) junctions • Direct chemical communication between adjacent cellular cytoplasm through diffusion without contact of the extracellular fluid. • Six connexin proteins, interacting to form a cylinder with a pore in the centre.2 adjacent cell connexons interact, they form the gap junction channel. • Connexon pores vary in size n polarity and therefore can be specific depending on the connexin proteins that constitute each individual connexon • Heart muscle, brain, Retinal and skin cells

  6. VERTEBRATES C: Tight junctions Branching network of sealing strands, each acting independently tissue, organ or cell specific combination of proteins of the claudin, occluding, tricellulin and JAM families. Beside transmembrane proteins , a number of cytoplasmatic associated adaptor proteins are present, that mediate the regulation and connection of the tight junctions with the actic cytoskeleton

  7. Efficiency of the junction in preventing ion passage increases exponentially with the number of strands. • Regulate the movement of water and solutes between epithelial layers. Tight epithelia like distal convoluted tubule, and the collecting duct part of the nephron in the kidney and the bile ducts ramifying through liver tissue. Leaky epithelia have less complex tight junctions. For instance, the tight junction in the kidney proximal tubule, a very leaky epithelium, has only two to three junctional strands, and these strands exhibit infrequent large slit breaks.

  8. CELL TO CELL CONTACTS/ JUNCTIONS Invertebrates: junctions, for example septate junctions or the C. elegans apical junction. epithelial cells, barrier to solute diffusion through the intracellular space beneath the apical, lumenal surface of the intestinal cells

  9. MULTICELLULAR PLANTS PLASMODESMATA portions of the endoplasmic reticulum are trapped across the middle lamella in newly dividing plant cells eventually becoming (primary plasmodesmata). wall is not thickened further, and depressions or thin areas known as pits are formed Alternatively, plasmodesmata can be inserted into existing cell walls between non-dividing cells (secondary plasmodesmata)
