  • A Comparative Study of the Ultrastructure of Microvilli in the Epithelium of Small and Large Intestine of Mice
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by PubMed Central A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF THE ULTRASTRUCTURE OF MICROVILLI IN THE EPITHELIUM OF SMALL AND LARGE INTESTINE OF MICE T. M. MUKHERJEE and A. WYNN WILLIAMS From the Electron Microscope Laboratory, the Departlnent of Pathology, the University of Otago Medical School, Dunedin, New Zealand ABSTRACT A comparative analysis of the fine structure of the microvilli on jejunal and colonic epi- thelial cells of the mouse intestine has been made. The microvilli in these two locations demonstrate a remarkably similar fine structure with respect to the thickness of the plasma membrane, the extent of the filament-free zone, and the characteristics of the microfila- ments situated within the microvillous core. Some of the core microfilaments appear to continue across the plasma membrane limiting the tip of the microvillus. The main differ- ence between the microvilli of small intestine and colon is in the extent and organization of the surface coat. In the small intestine, in addition to the commonly observed thin surface "fuzz," occasional areas of the jejunal villus show a more conspicuous surface coat covering the tips of the microvilli. Evidence has been put forward which indicates that the surface coat is an integral part of the epithelial cells. In contrast to the jejunal epithelium, the colonic epithelium is endowed with a thicker surface coat. Variations in the organization of the surface coat at different levels of the colonic crypts have also been noted. The func- tional significance of these variations in the surface coat is discussed.

  • Formation of Primary Cilia in the Renal Epithelium Is Regulated by the Von Hippel-Lindau Tumor Suppressor Protein
    Fast Track Formation of Primary Cilia in the Renal Epithelium Is Regulated by the von Hippel-Lindau Tumor Suppressor Protein Miguel A. Esteban, Sarah K. Harten, Maxine G. Tran, and Patrick H. Maxwell Renal Laboratory, Imperial College London, Hammersmith Campus, London, United Kingdom Growing evidence points to defects in the primary cilium as a critical mechanism underlying renal cyst development. Inactivation of the VHL gene is responsible for the autosomal dominant condition von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) disease and is implicated in most sporadic clear cell renal carcinomas. Manifestations of VHL disease include cysts in several organs, particularly in the kidney. Here it is shown that VHL inactivation is associated with abrogation of the primary cilium in renal cysts of patients with VHL disease and in VHL-defective cell lines. Complementation of VHL-defective clear cell renal carcinoma cell lines with wild-type VHL restored primary cilia. Moreover, it is shown that the effects of VHL on the primary cilium are mediated substantially via hypoxia-inducible factor. The effect of VHL status on the primary cilium provides a potential mechanism for renal cyst development in VHL disease and may help in the understanding of how VHL acts as a tumor suppressor. J Am Soc Nephrol 17: 1801–1806, 2006. doi: 10.1681/ASN.2006020181 any different hereditary conditions are associated re-expression of VHL in cell lines that are derived from CCRCC with development of renal cysts, often with other suppresses their tumorigenicity in nude mice (11).

Under the auspices of the World Association of Veterinary Anatomists (W.A.V.A.), the International Committee on Veterinary Anatomical Nomenclature (I.C.V.A.N.) appointed in Giessen, 1965, a Subcommittee on Histology and Embryology which started a working relation with the Subcommittee on Histology of the former International Anatomical Nomenclature Committee. In Mexico City, 1971, this Subcommittee presented a document entitled Nomina Histologica Veterinaria: A Working Draft as a basis for the continued work of the newly-appointed Subcommittee on Histological Nomenclature. This resulted in the editing of the Nomina Histologica Veterinaria: A Working Draft II (Toulouse, 1974), followed by preparations for publication of a Nomina Histologica Veterinaria.

Received: 3 May 2013; in revised form: 13 June 2013 / Accepted: 19 June 2013 / Published: 26 June 2013 Abstract: Mesothelia in the adult vertebrate are the simple squamous epithelia covering all coelomic organs and body cavities. Until recently, analysis of the generation and differentiative potential of mesothelia in organogenesis has largely focused on development of visceral mesothelium of the heart; the epicardium and its progenitor, the proepicardium. Here, we review emerging data on the development and differentiation of serosal mesothelium, the covering of the gastrointestinal tract. This literature demonstrates that serosal mesothelium is generated through a completely different mechanism than that seen in the heart suggesting that commitment of progenitors to this cell lineage does not follow a common pathway. The differentiative potential of serosal mesothelium is also discussed in comparison to that observed for progeny of the proepicardium/epicardium. In our review of the literature, we point out gaps in our understanding of serosal mesothelial development and that of mesothelial development as a whole. Keywords: mesothelium; proepicardium; epicardium; intestine; heart 1. Mesothelia: Broad Definition Mesothelia are simple squamous epithelia that line coelomic cavities and organs and form the mesenteries.

  • Cell Replacement and Differentiation in Transitional Epithelium: a Histological and Autoradiographic Study of the Guinea-Pig Bladder and Ureter B
    J. Anat. (1972), 112, 3, pp. 433-455 433 With 52 figures Printed in Great Britain Cell replacement and differentiation in transitional epithelium: a histological and autoradiographic study of the guinea-pig bladder and ureter B. F. MARTIN Department of Anatomy, University of Birmingham (Accepted 9 June 1972) INTRODUCTION Transitional epithelium occupies a position between the pseudostratified and truly stratified epithelia, and there has been much conjecture regarding the arrangement of the constituent cells, their behaviour during stretching of the epithelium, and the manner in which they undergo replacement and differentiation. In a previous study on the guinea-pig (Martin, 1962) it was concluded that there are essentially three layers of cells in the epithelium, namely, a layer of small basal cells, a middle or intermediate layer of pyriform cells, which vary in size and height but retain connexion with the basement membrane by long thin cytoplasmic pro- cesses, and a layer of surface cells which are of large size and often bi- or multi- nucleate. During distension, the stretched epithelium of both bladder and ureter retains the essentially three-layer state; the surface cells become flattened and thus increase their surface area, whilst the underlying cells are not only flattened but are displaced sideways and may lie almost parallel to the basement membrane (Martin, 1962; Petry & Amon, 1966). In contrast with stratified squamous epithelia, in which there is a rapid rate of cell replacement from the basal layer, study of cell kinetics in transitional epithelium has proved difficult. Mitotic figures are seldom seen in the adult bladder and very few cells are labelled in autoradiographs following the administration of [3H]thymidine (3H-T).
