Our interactions with the external environment are mediated through the epidermis and through several distinct keratinized and non-keratinized epithelia. Despite their crucial role in maintaining the stability of the interior milieu in water, in air and on the land and in protecting the body against the hazards of the environment, and despite the ...

Enteroendocrine Cells: Chemosensors in the Intestinal Epithelium.
Annual Review of Physiology, 2016The enteroendocrine system orchestrates how the body responds to the ingestion of foods, employing a diversity of hormones to fine-tune a wide range of physiological responses both within and outside the gut.

Stem cells, self-renewal, and differentiation in the intestinal epithelium.
Annual Review of Physiology, 2009The mammalian intestine is covered by a single layer of epithelial cells that is renewed every 4-5 days. This high cell turnover makes it a very attractive and comprehensive adult organ system for the study of cell proliferation and differentiation.

Ultrastructure of conjunctival epithelium replacing corneal epithelium
Current Eye Research, 1986After corneas of mice had been totally denuded of their epithelium by the application of n-heptanol, the new epithelium which grew over the corneas was studied by electron microscopy at intervals up to 7 months. The purpose was to compare the basal attachment of the new cells, derived from conjunctiva, with that of true corneal epithelial cells growing

Repair or regeneration of defective lung epithelium would be of great therapeutic potential. Cellular sources for such repair have long been searched for within the lung, but the identification and characterization of stem or progenitor cells have been hampered by the complexity and cellular heterogeneity of the organ.

The Respiratory Epithelium [PDF]
The respiratory epithelium forms a continuous layer of cells that separates air from liquid throughout the lung. The integrity and function of the epithelium are a critical requirement for effective gas exchange, the uptake of O2 from the environment and elimination of CO2 from the organism.

Gynecologic Oncology, 2004
The study was undertaken to provide further understanding of the phenomenon of "acetowhite epithelium".Solutions of acetic and similar acids were applied to the atypical transformation zone to demonstrate (or not) acetowhite epithelium.Acetowhite epithelium is not unique to acetic acid, but can be mimicked by other water soluble carboxylic acids ...

Pigment epithelium-derived factor: a potent inhibitor of angiogenesis.
Science, 1999In the absence of disease, the vasculature of the mammalian eye is quiescent, in part because of the action of angiogenic inhibitors that prevent vessels from invading the cornea and vitreous.

The Epithelium as a Target in Sepsis
Shock, 2016Organ dysfunction induced by sepsis has been consistently associated with worse outcome and death. Regardless of the organ compromised, epithelial dysfunction is present throughout the body, affecting those organs that contain epithelia like the skin, lungs, liver, gut, and kidneys.

Plasticity in the airway epithelium
American Journal of Physiology-Lung Cellular and Molecular Physiology, 1990Normal cell turnover as well as the response to injury require cell proliferation and differentiation. The airway epithelium maintains these processes throughout adult life. Controlled homeostatically, cell proliferation and differentiation usually restore, as an end point, the pseudostratified architecture of the normal mucociliary epithelium.
