What is the function of stratified epithelial tissue? What does the lung epithelial cell do? Which type of epithelial tissue is the least protective? What are the basic shapes of epithelial cells? What are transitional epithelial cells in urine?
Which specific epithelial tissue type: What is deglutition? Explain briefly. What is deamination? What is the function of the ciliary body? What does gray matter consist of? What is the difference between a peptide and a protien? What structure has external nares?
During this process, cells interact with the fibers of the surrounding extracellular matrix (ECM). It remains poorly understood, however, what individual cells actually regulate during these interactions, and how these micromechanical regulations are translated to the tissue-level to lead to what we ...
Elevated levels of pro-inflammatory factors such as IL-1, IL-6, IFN-γ, and IL-17 have been observed in clinical and animal models of dry eye [18, 21,22,23]. IL-1 plays a role in stimulating the secretion of chemokines, IL-6, and IL-8 by human corneal epithelial cells [21], ...
Three distinct layers make up the walls of each ureter. The inner layer contains epithelial cells that are the same types of cells that make up the lining of the bladder and parts of the kidneys. The middle layer consists of smooth muscle tissue and muscle fibers. The outer layer is made...
During this phase, the embryo seeks its position on the endometrial tissue and remains immobile while it is oriented so that its internal cell mass points towards the endometrium to allow the proper formation of the placenta later on. Apposition of embryo Here, the purported pinopods play an im...
Laser epithelial keratomileusis (LASEK) – the surface of the cornea is loosened with alcohol and a flap of tissue is lifted so that laser can go in and change the shape of the cornea. The flap is put back in place afterwards.
Out of the oceans Life evolved in the oceans, and that’s where you’ll still find placozoans, sponges, and ctenophores. Placozoans are tiny—these asymmetrical “flat animals” are a few millimeters in size and consist of just six known cell types. They have two epithelial layers with ci...
What does "extracellular matrix" mean and what does that have to do with the epithelial tissue?Epithelial Tissues:Epithelial tissues are the tissues of the body that line the surface of the body, organs, cavities, and glands thereby performing a wide range of funct...
Epithelial Tissue:The outer surfaces of organs, inner walls of the body cavities, blood vessels, and the outer surface of the body is lined with epithelial tissue. Epithelial tissue can be squamous, columnar, and cuboidal based on cell shape. Based on the cellular arrangement, they can be ...
