lect 32 & 33-Upper GI histology Flashcards
what is the epithelium of the GI tract
stratified squamous at either end
simple columnar most of the length
what type of muscle is in the GI tract
skeletal at either end (including upper esophagus)
smooth muscle throughout most of length
what is the GI intrinsic rhymicity mostly due to
presence of an enteric nervous system that exists independently of external influences including ANS
what are the peptide neurotransmitters
bombesin
motilin
vasoactive intestinal peptide
what do unicellular endocrine cells secrete
secrete neuropeptides
what are unicellular endocrine cells derived from
endoderm
what are intrinsic nerve fibers derived from
neural crest
what does the mucus membrane of the lip consist of
stratified squamous epithelium
basement membrane
lamina propria
what 3 embryonic tissues interact in the development of teeth
ectoderm, neural crest and mesoderm
what gves rise to dental papilla
neural crest and mesoderm
what forms the enamel organ
ectoderm
what is the dental primordium formed from
basal cels of the oral ectoderm
what is the labiodental lamina
epithelial shelf that grows from the thickening primordial into the mesenchyme as a bifid structure
what is the dental lamina
internal limb (teeth)
what is the dental sac
CT sac surrounding the enamel organ and dental papilla and forms cementum and the periodontal membrane
what forms the dentin matrix through the life of the tooth
odontoblasts
define tomes’ dentinal fibers
cytoplasmic extensions of the odontoblasts continuing through the predentin and dentinal layers to the dentin-enamel junction
what type of collagen in dentin primarily composed of
collagen type 1
what forms the enamel which covers only the tooth crown
ameloblasts
what is the hardest substance in the body
enamel
what organic components are unique to enamel and are removed after calcification
amelogenins and enamelins
what does pulp originate from
dental papilla containing condensed mesenchyme
what is the periodontal membrane
CT formed from dental sac with fibroblasts, osteoblasts, cementoblasts, collagen fibers, blood vessels and nerve vessels
what binds the cementum to the bony socket
periodontal membrane
what separates the anterior 2/3 of the upper oral portio of the tongue from the posterior 1/3
sulcus terminalis
what are lingual papillae formed of
central core of CT lamina propria covered by stratified squamous epithelium
what are the 2 types of cells of taste buds
sustantacular cells and taste cells
what are sustentacular cells
taste bud cells that are spindle-shaped support cells and arranged like barrel-staves to surround the inner taste pore at the base
what does the basal part of taste cells secrete
neurotransmitters
