Week 7: Histology Flashcards
ID the multicellular structure surrounding marker #1
Lymphoid Aggregate/MALT
ID the layer and major tissue type indicated by marker #2
Muscularis Externa/Propria and smooth muscle
the nuclei are corkscrew-shaped
ID the organ seen here
Appendix
No villi, short tubular glands, the entire structure fits on the slide, and lymphoid aggregates are present
Name the region of the organ
Jejunum
Absence of Brunner’s/Submucosal Glands and Peyer’s Patches
ID the layer and the tissue indicated by marker #1
Submucosa and DICT
ID the organ seen here
Colon
ID the epithelium indicated by marker #1
Simple Columnar Epithelium
ID the sublayer and tissue indicated by marker #2
Muscularis Mucosae and Smooth Muscle
What structure appears to be missing in this section and what physiological function would be disrupted in this patient?
Enteric Plexus and Peristalsis
both Meissner’s and Auerbach’s Plexus
What structure appears to be missing in this section and what embryonic cell type inappropriate migrated?
Enteric Plexus and Neural Crest
Name the region of the organ
Ileum
Peyer’s Patches are marker #2
ID the layer and tissue indicated by marker #1
Muscularis Externa/Propria and Smooth Muscle
ID the structure indicated by marker #2
Peyer’s Patch
ID the structure indicated by marker #3
Villus
ID the structures indicated by the arrows and what do they represent?
Terminal Bars; junctional complexes of epithelial cells
ID the structure indicated by the asterisks
Brush Border
Name the 3 most prominent enzymes located in the structure indicated by the asterisks
- Enteropeptidase (Enterokinase)
- Lactase
- Aminopeptidase
asterisks are brush border
ID the structure indicated by the yellow ellipse
Taeniae Coli
Name the region of the organ seen here
Duodenum
Brunner/Submucosal Glands are markers #1 and #3
ID the structure indicated by markers #1 and #3
Brunner’s/Submucosal Glands
ID the function of the structures indicated by markers #1 and #3
Production of mucus to protect the mucosa layer of the duodenum
Marker #1 and #3 are Brunner’s/Submucosal Glands - they produce minimal bicarbonate
ID the layer and sublayer in which markers #1 and #3 are located
Mucosa and Submucosa
Name the structure that is located between markers #2 and #4
Plica Circularis (Circular Folds)
Name two embryonic conditions through which this region might exhibit stenosis or atresia
- Duodenal Atresia - incomplete recanalization during development
- Annular Pancreas - failure of the ventral pancreatic bud to rotate
