The submucosa consists of a dense and irregular layer of connective tissue with blood vessels, lymphatics, and nerves branching into the mucosa and muscular layer. It contains the submucous plexus , and enteric nervous plexus , situated on the inner surface of the muscular layer.
The shape of the simple columnar epithelium cells are tall and narrow giving a column like appearance. the apical surfaces of the tissue face the lumen of organs while the basal side faces the basement membrane. [1] The nuclei are located closer along the basal side of the cell. [1]
The goblet cells mainly use the merocrine method of secretion, secreting vesicles into a duct, but may use apocrine methods, budding off their secretions, when under stress. [2] The term goblet refers to the cell's goblet-like shape. The apical portion is shaped like a cup, as it is distended by abundant mucus laden granules; its basal portion ...
Called the pericardium, this serous membrane is a two-layered sac that surrounds the entire heart except where blood vessels emerge on the heart's superior side; [4] The pleura is the serous membrane that surrounds the lungs in the pleural cavity; The peritoneum is the serous membrane that surrounds several organs in the abdominopelvic cavity.
The celiac artery supplies the liver, stomach, spleen and the upper 1/3 of the duodenum (to the sphincter of Oddi) and the pancreas with oxygenated blood. Most of the blood is returned to the liver via the portal venous system for further processing and detoxification before returning to the systemic circulation via the hepatic veins.
The submucosa (or tela submucosa) is a thin layer of tissue in various organs of the gastrointestinal, respiratory, and genitourinary tracts. It is the layer of dense irregular connective tissue that supports the mucosa (mucous membrane) and joins it to the muscular layer, the bulk of overlying smooth muscle (fibers running circularly within layer of longitudinal muscle).
When the stomach pH decreases (becomes more acidic), the ECLs stop releasing histamine. G cells – They secrete gastrin hormone. Gastrin stimulates the gastric glands to release gastric acid. These cells are mostly found in pyloric glands in the pyloric antrum; some are found in the duodenum and other tissues. The gastric pits of these glands ...
H + is pumped into the stomach by exchanging it with K +. This process also requires ATP as a source of energy; however, Cl − then follows the positive charge in the H + through an open apical channel protein. HCO 3 − secretion occurs to neutralize the acid secretions that make their way into the duodenum of the small intestine.
