Renewal of Intestinal Stem Cells01:23

Renewal of Intestinal Stem Cells

3.1K
The intestinal epithelial lining rapidly renews every 4 to 5 days. The renewal is facilitated by intestinal stem cells (ISCs) located at the base of the crypt– a gland located at the bottom of each villus. ISCs divide asymmetrically to form new stem cells and progenitor daughter cells. The daughter cells are called transit-amplifying (TA) cells which move upwards along the crypt and either differentiate into absorptive cells– the enterocytes or secretory cells– including the...

Mucosal Barrier of the Stomach01:25

Mucosal Barrier of the Stomach

2.0K
The gastric glands contain parietal cells that secrete hydrochloric acid (HCl) for digestion. The cells secrete HCl because it is highly corrosive and essential for breaking down food. To achieve this, they secrete hydrogen and chloride ions into the lumen of the gastric glands, which combine to form HCl.
Within parietal cells, carbonic acid is first formed through the reaction of water and carbon dioxide. The dissociation of carbonic acid releases bicarbonate and hydrogen ions. The bicarbonate...

Inflammatory Bowel Disease V: Surgical Management

441
Surgical interventions for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), which includes ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease, are essential in managing symptoms and addressing complications. The selection of surgical procedures is contingent upon the specific conditions and complications that stem from these illnesses.
Here are some common surgical interventions for IBD:

Microvilli00:55

Microvilli

8.9K
Microvilli are tiny finger-like projections found on the surface of certain cells. Their purpose is to increase the surface area of the cell's apical surface, resulting in more effective absorption or secretion of substances.
These microvilli are predominantly present in cells lining the small intestine, kidney tubules, and certain cells in the respiratory and reproductive systems. By significantly expanding the surface area of the cell membrane, microvilli enhance the cell's capacity...

Histology of the Small Intestine01:27

Histology of the Small Intestine

3.4K
The small intestine exhibits a unique histological structure that significantly enhances its function in digestion and nutrient absorption. These structures include circular folds, villi, and various specialized cells that collectively facilitate the digestion of food.
The intestinal lining features transverse folds called circular folds, each housing fingerlike projections known as intestinal villi. These villi are covered by a layer of simple columnar epithelium, also referred to as...

Histology of the Gastrointestinal (GI) Tract01:20

Histology of the Gastrointestinal (GI) Tract

3.2K
The GI tract, from beginning to end, is made up of four continuous tissue layers that adjust their structure according to their specific roles. These layers, from innermost to outermost, are known as the mucosa, submucosa, muscularis, and serosa, which are continuous with the mesentery.
The mucosa is sometimes called a mucous membrane due to its mucus-secreting features. This membrane is composed of epithelium, which directly interacts with ingested substances, and the lamina propria, a layer...

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe a straightforward technique for intraoral reconstruction.
  • To evaluate the efficacy of random submucous pedicle island flaps.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized island flaps of labial or buccal mucosa.
  • Vascularization was achieved via a randomly selected submucous pedicle.
  • Flap harvesting procedure is described as simple.

Main Results:

  • The described flap procedure is safe.
  • Successful closure of oronasal communications was achieved.
  • Successful closure of buccal mucosa defects was achieved.

Conclusions:

  • Random submucous pedicle island flaps are a safe and effective method for intraoral reconstruction.
  • This technique offers a simple solution for oronasal and buccal mucosal defects.
