The most common example of metaplasia is Barrett's esophagus, when the non-keratinizing squamous epithelium of the esophagus undergoes metaplasia to become mucinous columnar cells, ultimately protecting the esophagus from acid reflux originating in the stomach. If stress persists, metaplasia can progress to dysplasia and eventually carcinoma ...
Metaplasia (from Greek 'change in form') is the transformation of a cell type to another cell type. [1] The change from one type of cell to another may be part of a normal maturation process, or caused by some sort of abnormal stimulus.
- Myoepithelial cell stain (calponin in this case) showing circumferential staining, rather than the absent staining seen in breast cancer. [ 1 ] Usual ductal hyperplasia (UDH) is a benign lesion of the breast wherein cells look very similar to normal.
Barrett's esophagus is a condition in which there is an abnormal (metaplastic) change in the mucosal cells lining the lower portion of the esophagus, from stratified squamous epithelium to simple columnar epithelium with interspersed goblet cells that are normally present only in the small intestine and large intestine.
Transitional epithelium is made up of three types of cell layers: basal, intermediate, and superficial. [3] The basal layer fosters the epithelial stem cells in order to provide constant renewal of the epithelium. [4] These cells' cytoplasm is rich in tonofilaments and mitochondria; however, they contain few rough endoplasmic reticulum.
