Microscopic Photos of Reproductive System Tissue Slides 4 years, 4 months agoThe testis is composed of lobules of glandular tubules. These tubules are highly convoluted and held together by loose connective tissue with interspersed groups of “interstitial cells,” which contain Leydig cells. -

The ovaries are small almond shaped structures, covered by a thick connective tissue capsule – the tunica albuginea. This is covered by a simple squamous mesothelium called the germinal epithelium.

Histology Art (MT30 – G) 4 years, 4 months agoAnother fascinating system that we need to study is the respiratory system. Without the tissues and organs which compose it, we cannot breathe.Here is the histology art I have made for the tissues of the respiratory system.

According to Hoffman (2009), the lungs are a pair of spongy, air-filled organs situated on either side of the chest. It is covered by a thin tissue layer referred to as…

The trachea or the windpipe conducts inhaled air into the lungs through its tubular branches, called bronchi. It is made of rings of cartilage. It is lined with cells…

The larynx is a hollow tube connecting the pharynx to the rest of the respiratory system’s organs. It helps you swallow safely. Moreover, it contains our voice box.

MT 30 – GH (Lec) 4 years, 4 months agoHi! I apologize for posting late due to chronic hives. Well, I hope everyone is well in the comfort of their own homes.
Nevertheless, I found an interesting article that has sparked interest in me.
https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0735109717307908#!

The article, “The Aging Cardiovascular System: Understanding It at the Cellular and Clinical Levels” by Camici, Cañestro, Libby, Luscher, and Paneni (2017) highlights the need to understand how aging develops into cardiovascular disease. Thus, awareness is the first step toward coming up with strategies to face this challenge.
-
In this article, I found out that age-related conditions pose challenges to the clinical care of cardiovascular (CV) patients. Aging causes the hardening of the aorta due to increased levels of collagen and decreased elastin.
-
Moreover, increased oxidative stress and inflammation stimulate CV aging. Thus, the authors consider aspects of vascular repair, including autologous transplantation of bone marrow-derived stem cells in elderly patients.

MT 30 – IJ (LEC) 4 years, 4 months agoSulawesi medaka’s circulatory system, particularly the heart and bulbus anteriosus, is similar to that of zebrafish, however, there are some changes in the anatomy of the circulatory system and other elements comparable to other Teleostei fish. These findings show that Sulawesi medaka fish can be utilised as models, particularly in cardiovascular…[Read more]

Ileum- Located at the last part and the longest in the small intestine which connects to the first part of the large intestine called the cecum. The Ileum helps digest…
-
Note: I used two microscopic pictures for the Ileum.

-
Stomach- The stomach is located at the left upper quadrant of the body. It receives food from the esophagus. Then it secretes acids and enzymes that turns food into smaller bits. The contraction of the stomach muscles called churning enhances the digestion of food.
-
Appendix- Located at the right lower quadrant or at the lower abdomen. One of the controversially talked part of the large intestine is the appendix. There is still no…
-
Large intestine- Also called the large bowel, is located at the lower abdominal cavity below the waist surrounding the small intestine. It absorbs water and…
-
Small intestine- The small bowel is found at the lower abdominal cavity just below the stomach. It is surrounded by the large intestine. It helps further digest the food from the stomach and absorbs nutrients, carbohydrates, fats, minerals, and protein into the bloodstream.
-
Mucosa- Found in the innermost lining of the gastrointestinal tract. It surrounds or lines the the lumen of the intestinal tract. It is also responsible in the secretion and absorption.
-
Liver- Located at the right upper quadrant, inferior to the diaphragm and superior to the stomach. The liver have many functions, but for digestion it processes the absorbed nutrients from the small intestine. It also produces bile and digest some vitamins and fats.
-
Esophagus- You can find the esophagus at the mediastinum or at the center of the chest, posterior to the trachea (windpipe) and anterior to the spine. With the use of muscular contractions called peristalsis, food and fluids are transported from the mouth to the stomach through the esophagus.
-
Muscularis- This is the outermost layer of the mucosa. Usually found from the esophagus to the rectum but thickest at the esophagus. This is responsible in the breaking down and propelling of food. Digestive secretions help move food along the GI tract.
