Learn about epithelial tissue, including the function and structure of epithelial tissue and the shape of epithelial cells.
The mucosal epithelial layer forms the interface between the luminal contents of the intestines and the tissue compartments of the gastrointestinal tract. This area is the site for digestion and absorption of various essential nutrients. Protecting the layer against harmful agents and infectious pathogens...
Overview of the main cellular components and tissues. Surface epithelium 1/4 Synonyms:Epithelium A tissue is a group ofcells, in close proximity, organized to perform one or more specific functions. There are four basic tissue types defined by their morphology and function: epithelial tissue, conn...

pCLE of the extrahepatic bile duct after fluorescein injection demonstrated a reticular pattern within fluorescein-filled sinuses that had no known anatomical correlate. Freezing biopsy tissue before fixation preserved the anatomy of this structure, demonstrating that it is part of the submucosa and a ...
Clostridium difficile toxins disrupt epithelial barrier function by altering membrane microdomain localization of tight junction proteins. The anaerobic bacterium Clostridium difficile is the etiologic agent of pseudomembranous colitis. C. difficile toxins TcdA and TcdB are UDP-glucosyltransfe... A,Nusrat,C...
