    This document discusses glandular epithelium, which are epithelial cells specialized to produce fluid secretions. It classifies glands based on whether they have ducts to secrete products (exocrine vs endocrine glands) and further classifies exocrine glands based on cell number (unicellular vs multicellular), duct structure (simple vs compound), secretory portion shape, secretion method (merocrine, apocrine, holocrine), and secretion type (mucous, serous, muco-serous). Examples are provided for each classification.

    Glandular Epithelium
    Glandular Epithelium: are formed by epithelial cells specialized to produce a fluid
    secretion.
    A gland is one or more cells that produce and secrete a specific product into ducts or
    into body fluids.
    Classifications of glands:
    1-depending on presence and absence of duct into:
    Endocrine Glands Exocrine Glands
    Without ducts With ducts
    secreted products directly into the NOT released into the blood but to the free
    blood. e.g. adrenal gland surface of the skin or of the open cavities of the
    body such as the digestive tract.e.g. sweat
    gland

    2-Depending on the number of cells exocrine gland classified to:


    Unicellular glands Multicellular glands:
    consists of one cell consists of many cells
    no ducts but secrete their products directly on with ducts to connect to the free surface
    the free surface e.g. goblet cell e.g. sebaceous gland
    Multicellular exocrine gland classified as following:
    1-According to branched and un-branched duct:
    A- Simple (unbranched duct). B- Compound (branched duct)
    2- According to the shape of secretory portion :

    3- According to the mode of Secretions:

    Merocrine gland Apocrine gland Holocrine gland
    Secretion is done by a small portion of the The secretion is done by
    Exocytosis apical cytoplasm Loss of entire cell with
    discharged with the secretory product
    secretory products
    Keeps all of their cytoplasm Growth and repair Cell bursts and dies
    Salivary glands Mammary glands Sebaceous glands of the
    skin

    4-According to the nature of secretion multicellular


    exocrine gland classified into:
    Mucous gland Serous gland Muco-serous gland (mixed gland)

    Secret mucus. Secret enzymes. Contains both serous and


    the nuclei are basally acini polyhedral or mucous, serous cells cap
    located and flattened, pyramidal, with round, mucous cells.
    acini cuboidal or centrally located nuclei.
    columnar in shape
    lumen is larger than Small lumen Found in submandibular 
    serous.
    Example is Found in pancreas (dark
    sublingual gland. stained)
    (light stained)
