muscularis mucosae

Unlike elsewhere in the intestinal tract, the gallbladder does not have a muscularis mucosae.

It consists of epithelium, lamina propria, and the muscularis mucosae.

Basement membrane and muscularis mucosae are intact.

The duodenum wall is composed of a very thin layer of cells that form the muscularis mucosae.

Its function is to innervate cells in the epithelial layer and the smooth muscle of the muscularis mucosae.

They migrate to the submucosa and muscularis mucosae and cause severe necrosis.

All biopsy specimens include muscularis mucosae; however only one contained sufficient submucosa for analysis of submucosal staining.

It invades the wall, infiltrating the muscularis mucosae, the submucosa and thence the muscularis propria.

It is thought that the non-lifting sign is due to fibrosis around the tumour causing tethering of the tumour to the muscularis mucosae.

Bradley states that an adenoma, by definition, is a tumor confined to the appendiceal mucosa with absolutely no evidence of of invasion beyond the muscularis mucosae.

A gastric peptic ulcer is a mucosal defect which penetrates the muscularis mucosae and lamina propria, produced by acid-pepsin aggression.

This plexus lies in the submucous coat of the intestine; it also contains ganglia from which nerve fibers pass to the muscularis mucosae and to the mucous membrane.

The following variables were evaluated: crypt branching, atrophy, thickening of the epithelial basement membrane and muscularis mucosae, fibrosis and density of inflammatory cell infiltrate.

The etymology suggests this, since the Latin names translate to "the mucosa's own special layer" (lamina propria mucosae) and "muscular layer of the mucosa" (lamina muscularis mucosae).

Tiny parasympathetic ganglia are scattered around forming the submucosal plexus (or "Meissner's plexus") where preganglionic parasympathetic neurons synapse with postganglionic nerve fibers that supply the muscularis mucosae.

Some emphasise fibrosis as the dominant feature, but Goulston and McGovern indicate that contraction and hypertrophy of the muscularis mucosae are the essential features of stricture formation, and they suggest that these lesions are reversible.

Fifteen of the sporadic adenomas were less than 2 cm in size, 16 were greater than or equal to 2 cm in size, and seven had undergone focal malignant transformation, characterised by invasion of neoplastic epithelium through the muscularis mucosae.

The volumes of surface and crypt epithelium, and of the lamina propria, were determined with reference to a standard reference square of muscularis mucosae (10 m): measurements were successively accumulated per specimen until a coefficient of variation <10% was secured.

The lamina muscularis mucosae (or muscularis mucosae) is the thin layer of smooth muscle found in most parts of the gastrointestinal tract, located outside the lamina propria mucosae and separating it from the submucosa.

Mucosa: mucous tissue lining various tubular structures consisting of epithelium, lamina propria, and, in the digestive tract, a layer of smooth muscle (muscularis mucosae)in contact with the outside world including the mouth, throat, lungs, digestive system and some of the reproductive system.

Similarly, for immunostained cells, absolute populations were determined with reference to a similar standard reference area of muscularis mucosae (10 m): however, these counts were performed at the microscope with a calibrated ocular graticule aligned parallel to the muscularis mucosae.

It can be divided into the epithelium, lamina propria, and the muscularis mucosae, though some consider the outermost muscularis mucosae to be a distinct layer, as it develops from the mesoderm rather than the endoderm (thus making a total of five layers).
