Somatostatinoma of vater's papilla and of the minor papilla [PDF]
Cancer, 1987 Two cases of somatostatinomas of the major and minor papilla are reported. The tumors were characterized by solid trabecular and tubular arrangements of tumor cells and in one case by the presence of microvilli and psammoma bodies. The tumor cells contain many amine precursor uptake and dicarboxylation (APUD)-granules with a diameter of 300 to 500 nm ...

Denver Papillae Protocol for Objective Analysis of Fungiform Papillae [PDF]
Journal of Visualized Experiments, 2015 The goal of the Denver Papillae Protocol is to use a dichotomous key to define and prioritize the characteristics of fungiform papillae (FP) to ensure consistent scoring between scorers. This protocol builds off of a need that has arisen from the last two decades of taste research using FP as a proxy for taste pore density.

Rice Stomatal Mega-Papillae Restrict Water Loss and Pathogen Entry
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021 Rice (Oryza sativa) is a water-intensive crop, and like other plants uses stomata to balance CO2 uptake with water-loss. To identify agronomic traits related to rice stomatal complexes, an anatomical screen of 64 Thai and 100 global rice cultivars was ...

Sensing in the mouth: A model for filiform papillae as strain amplifiers
Frontiers in Physics, 2016 Texture perception of foods is a common yet remarkably unstudied biophysical problem. Motivated by recent experiments reporting the presence of corpuscular endings in tongue filiform papillae, we develop in this work a mechanical model of the human ...
