BRS Cell Biology and Histology is an outline-format review for USMLE and course exams, with abundant electron micrographs and conceptual line drawings, high-yield Clinical Considerations boxes, review questions at the end of each chapter, and a comprehensive USMLE-format examination at the end of the book. This Sixth Edition features 60 new full-color photomicrographs and a new full-color design with colorized line drawings. Content and questions have been updated, new Clinical Considerations have been added, and Clinical Considerations have been better integrated into the content.

A companion website will offer the fully searchable text and an interactive question bank.

BRS Cell Biology and Histology 6th Table of contents:

• Introduction to Cell Biology

  • Overview of cellular biology and its importance in understanding disease processes and medical practice.
  • Basic structure of cells, organelles, and their functions.

• The Cell: Structure and Function

  • Detailed discussion on the structure of the eukaryotic cell, including the plasma membrane, cytoplasm, and organelles (e.g., mitochondria, nucleus, rough and smooth endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus).

• Genetics and Molecular Biology

  • Principles of molecular genetics, DNA structure, transcription, translation, and gene regulation.
  • Genetic mutations, inheritance patterns, and genetic disorders.

• Cellular Metabolism

  • Energy production within cells, including glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, oxidative phosphorylation, and ATP synthesis.
  • Metabolic pathways and their regulation.

• Cell Cycle and Cell Division

  • Stages of the cell cycle (interphase, mitosis, and cytokinesis) and regulation mechanisms.
  • Apoptosis and its role in cell turnover and disease.

• Histology: Tissues of the Body

  • Basic histology principles, including tissue preparation and staining techniques.
  • Overview of the four major tissue types: epithelial, connective, muscular, and nervous tissues.

• Epithelial Tissue

  • Structure and classification of epithelial tissues.
  • Specialized functions of epithelial cells and their role in absorption, secretion, and protection.

• Connective Tissue

  • Types of connective tissues (e.g., loose connective tissue, dense connective tissue, cartilage, bone, blood).
  • Extracellular matrix components and their functions.

• Muscle Tissue

  • Structure and function of the three types of muscle tissue: skeletal, smooth, and cardiac muscle.
  • Muscle contraction mechanisms and their physiological relevance.

• Nervous Tissue

  • Structure and function of neurons and glial cells.
  • Organization of the nervous system and synaptic transmission.

• Organ Histology

  • Histology of various organs, including the integumentary system, digestive system, respiratory system, urinary system, and reproductive system.
  • Functional correlates of histological structures in different organs.

• Clinical Correlations

  • Case studies and clinical correlations that link cell biology and histology concepts to medical practice.
  • Examples of diseases that affect cell function and tissue structure.

• Practice Questions

  • Multiple-choice questions (MCQs) related to cell biology and histology, designed to reinforce key concepts and aid in exam preparation.

• Glossary of Terms

  • Definitions of important terms in cell biology and histology for easy reference.

• Index

  • A comprehensive index for locating specific topics or terms in the book.
