The origin and histology of the cardiac mucosa remains controversial. The classical concept that the cardiac mucosa is of gastric origin has been challenged by those who advocate that the cardiac mucosa results from a metaplastic esophageal process. Some regard cardiac mucosa as consisting solely of pure mucous glands, whereas others accept the presence of isolated parietal cells within the muc...

A clinical case of a 9-year-old patient who seeks care for elevated lesions the oral mucosa is presented. disease caused by HPV was diagnosed. This might potentially involve child abuse due to modes transmission. On examination, an ulcerated papillary lesion approximately 0.5 cm observed in right lip corner. Multiple raised warty were seen on both cheeks and lower labial mucosa. We conclude abo...

Characteristic morphological and histochemical changes in mucosa adjacent to colorectal adenocarcinomas have been described. It has been suggested that this type of mucosa, labelled transitional mucosa (TM) because of its specific association with colorectal adenocarcinoma, is indicative of a premalignant change. In an investigation of mucosa adjacent to anal tumours extending into the rectum a...

background : functional dyspepsia is considered one of the most common digestive diseases with tremendous cost and time expenditures for patients and health systems. an increase in the numbers of inflammatory cells such as mast cells and eosinophils are reported in the gastrointestinal mucosa of these patients. this study aims to determine the effects of histaminic receptor blockage on patients...

barrett's mucosa is one of the most important diseases in upper gastrointestinal system that caused by gastroesophagus reflux. if left untreated, the disease will cause distal esophagus and gastric cardiaadenocarcinoma. the malignancy risk is very high in short segment barrett’s mucosa. therefore,lesion area segmentation can improve specialist decision for treatment. in this paper, we proposeda...

The distribution of basophiloid cells in nasal mucosa was examined both in the patients of nasal allergy and normal controls . Basophiloid cells were stained in alcian blue (P .H. 5.8) with 0.4M MgCl2. 1 ) The basophiloid cells in the nasal mucosa of allergic patients were far outnumbered those of normal controls. 2) The basophiloid cells in the epithelial layer were very few in normal controls...

abstract background and aim: increased rate of micronucleus in buccal mucosa cells and its correlation with carcinogenesis is worth consideration. recently, occupation in dental laboratories has been proposed as a predisposing factor. therefore, the present study aimed to evaluate the effect of occupational exposure on buccal mucosa cells of dental laboratory technicians. materials and methods:...

The definition and features of the gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) and the histopathologic features of the cardiac mucosa remain controversial. Most reports originate from western countries, which have different prevalence of GEJ adenocarcinoma and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) compared to eastern countries. Therefore, we investigated GEJ anatomic and histopathologic features by histol...

We have previously shown an important role of the chloride channel ClC-2 in orchestrating repair of tight junctions in ischemia-injured mucosa. In this study, we examined the role of ClC-2 in regulating barrier function of normal murine intestinal mucosa. Ex vivo, ClC-2-/- ileal mucosa mounted in Ussing chambers had significantly higher transepithelial electrical resistance (TER) and reduced [(...
