Aberrant Epithelial Cell Proliferation in Peripheral Airways in Bronchiectasis
Dilation of bronchi and bronchioles caused by destruction and excessive epithelial remodeling is a characteristic feature of bronchiectasis. It is not known how epithelial progenitor cells contribute to these pathologic conditions in peripheral airways ...

Immunomodulation of Epithelium [PDF]
Many studies have provided evidence that the immune system is a key regulatory system of intestinal function. The interaction of immune cells with the gut epithelium plays an important role in host defence, acting to eliminate pathogens, antigens and other noxious material from the lumen of the gastrointestinal tract.

ON THE GROWTH OF EPITHELIUM. [PDF]
In the following I intend to report upon some experiments which were undertaken as a continuation of former work published in 1898, in theArchiv f. Entwickelungsmechanik.There are reported observations on the growth of epithelium in the coagulated blood during the healing of wounds. I found that epithelium may branch in the blood.

Mitosis in rat conjunctival epithelium is restricted to the basal cell layer. Although spindle orientation has been described in the basal layer of stratified epithelia, this orientation is usually with respect to the basement membrane. Flat mounts of the perilimbal conjunctival epithelium reveal that a majority of dividing cells are oriented with ...

Intestinal Inflammation as a Dysbiosis of Energy Procurement: New Insights into an Old Topic
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) coincides with profound shifts in microbiota and host metabolic energy supply and demand. The gastrointestinal epithelium is anatomically positioned to provide a selective barrier between the anaerobic luminal microbiota ...
