Structures of skin: hair
follicle
Invagination of epidermis
Hair contains keratin and
melanin
Dermal papilla
Connective tissue
invagination into bulb,
has capillary network
Matrix
Germinative layer
adjacent to dermal
papilla
Also contains
melanocytes
Sebaceous gland
Secretion empties into
hair follicle
Arrector pili muscle
Smooth muscle, inserts
on hair follicle and base
of epidermis
bulb
(dermal papilla)
THE HAIR
The hair is formed of
Shaft: medulla, cortex and cuticle
The hair follicle is formed of :
Inner root sheath formed of:
Cuticle ,Huxleys layer,Henles layer
Outer root sheath: identical with
Malpighian
Layer of epidermis
Connective tissue sheath
