Reactive gastropathy, is characterized histologically by: [2] - Foveolar hyperplasia (black arrow), as a tortuosity in the "neck" region of the gastric glands. - Scant or minimal inflammatory cells (white arrow), i.e. lack of large numbers of neutrophils and plasma cells.. - Smooth muscle hyperplasia in the lamina propria (in black oval).
The esophageal gland or oesophageal pouch is a part of the digestive system of some gastropods.The esophageal gland or pouch is a common feature in so-called basal gastropod clades, including Patelloidea, Vetigastropoda, Cocculiniformia, Neritimorpha and Neomphalina.
While the diagnosis of lymphocytic esophagitis depends on the biopsy results, certain changes can be visualized directly at the time of endoscopy. The esophagus may be narrow in calibre, [ 5 ] may show multiple rings, [ 5 ] redness, [ 5 ] linear furrows [ 1 ] or the mucosal lining may slide demonstrating a "crepe-paper" appearance. [ 1 ]
The esophageal mucosa (stratified squamous epithelium) is seen on the right. The gastric mucosa (simple columnar epithelium) is seen on the left. The metaplastic epithelial is at the junction (center of image) and has an intensely eosinophilic (bright pink) cytoplasm. H&E stain. Specialty: Oncology
Diagram of the alkaline mucous layer in the stomach with mucosal defense mechanisms. The gastric mucosa is the mucous membrane layer of the stomach, which contains the gastric pits, to which the gastric glands empty. In humans, it is about one mm thick, and its surface is smooth, soft, and velvety.
Reactive stains undergo an observable change due to a chemical process related to the function of the gastrointestinal tract. Congo red is used as a test for achlorhydria in the stomach, to test adequacy of vagotomy ( post adequate vagotomy, gastric acid secretion is abolished) and to detect presence of ectopic gastric tissue, as it changes ...
Doty has a long list of the ways she tried — and failed — to lose weight over the years: Richard Simmons, Weight Watchers, ‘90s fad drug fen-phen, lap band surgery, Tae Bo, Atkins, gastric ...
Foveolar cells or surface mucous cells are mucus-producing cells which cover the inside of the stomach, protecting it from the corrosive nature of gastric acid. [1] [a] These cells line the gastric mucosa and the gastric pits. Mucous neck cells are found in the necks of the gastric glands.
