  2. Waldmann disease - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waldmann_disease

    Once the main cause of the disease is treated, a diet of low-fat and high-protein aliments, supplemental calcium and certain vitamins has been shown to reduce symptom effects. [4] Adding medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) to the diet allows for increased caloric intake while adhering to dietary restrictions, helping to manage symptoms such as ...

  3. Lamina propria - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lamina_propria

    Progression of epithelial cancer often relies on deep and regional lymph node invasion. [12] The lamina propria, being one of the barriers to the submucosa, is an area where epithelial cancer invasion is of significance since lymphatic invasion is an independent predictor of lymph node metastasis, especially in gastric cancer. [13]

  4. Xylometazoline - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xylometazoline

    Xylometazoline works by stimulating adrenergic receptors on the lamina propria of blood vessels in the nose. The decongestant effect is due to constriction of large veins in the nose which swell up during the inflammation of any infection or allergy of the nose.

  5. Gastrointestinal wall - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gastrointestinal_wall

    The lamina propria, a layer of connective tissue within the mucosa. The muscularis mucosae, a thin layer of smooth muscle. The epithelium, the most exposed part of the mucosa, is a glandular epithelium with many goblet cells. Goblet cells secrete mucus, which lubricates the passage of food along and protects the intestinal wall from digestive ...

  6. Intestinal mucosal barrier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intestinal_mucosal_barrier

    An emerging model of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) pathogenesis postulates three prerequisite factors: 1) degradation of intestinal barrier function, 2) translocation of luminal contents into the lamina propria and subsequent exposure to immune cells, and 3) an inappropriate immune response. Although intestinal barrier dysfunction is clearly ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Small_intestine

  9. Gut-associated lymphoid tissue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gut-associated_lymphoid_tissue

    The gut-associated lymphoid tissue lies throughout the intestine, covering an area of approximately 260–300 m 2. [5] In order to increase the surface area for absorption, the intestinal mucosa is made up of finger-like projections (), covered by a monolayer of epithelial cells, which separates the GALT from the lumen intestine and its contents.
