  2. Pseudostratified columnar epithelium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pseudostratified_columnar...

    Ciliated pseudostratified columnar epithelium is the type of respiratory epithelium found in the linings of the trachea as well as upper respiratory tract, which allows filtering and humidification of incoming air. [1] Non-ciliated pseudostratified columnar epithelia are located in the prostate [2] and membranous part of male vas deferens.

  4. Neuroectoderm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neuroectoderm

    Histologically, these cells are classified as pseudostratified columnar cells. [ 1 ] After recruitment from the ectoderm, the neuroectoderm undergoes three stages of development: transformation into the neural plate , transformation into the neural groove (with associated neural folds ), and transformation into the neural tube .

  5. Metaplasia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metaplasia

    One example of pathological irritation is cigarette smoke, which causes the mucus-secreting ciliated pseudostratified columnar respiratory epithelial cells that line the airways to be replaced by stratified squamous epithelium, or a stone in the bile duct that causes the replacement of the secretory columnar epithelium with stratified squamous ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epiblast

    At this stage, both human and mouse epiblasts consist of a pseudostratified columnar epithelium. Shortly after, the human epiblast will assume a disc shape while the amniotic cavity forms. The epiblast cells adjacent to the trophoblast are specified to become amnion cells. The mouse epiblast transitions from a rosette structure to a cup.

    Cuboidal epithelium has cells whose height and width are approximately the same (cube shaped). Columnar epithelium has cells taller than they are wide (column-shaped). Endothelium refers to cells that line the interior surface of blood vessels and lymphatic vessels , [ 1 ] forming an interface between circulating blood or lymph in the lumen and ...

    Their epithelium can be simple cuboidal or simple columnar. [10] Striated ducts are part of the intralobular ducts. They are found in the submandibular gland, [11] [12] sublingual duct, and the parotid gland, but are more developed in the parotid gland. [13] They are not present in pancreas.
