Columnar Epithelium of the Gallbladder

This is a medium power photomicrograph showing how delicate the mucosal fronds are. Each frond consists of a single layer of columnar epithelium covering a core of capillaries and a few fibroblasts. The empty part of the picture would be the gallbladder lumen, and on the opposite side parts of two muscle bundles can be seen.

Ciliated Columnar Epithelium

The diagram typifies the histological appearance of the endometrium which follows the basic 3 component pattern of tubular systems in the body; mucosa – ciliated columnar cells, basement membrane (blue) and submucosa (orange) muscularis ? (pink) and serosa (cream).

Simple Tubular Gland Lined by a Ciliated Columnar Epithelium

The higher power diagram reveals the cytological appearance of the simple tubular gland of the endometrial lining of the uterus showing the ciliated columnar cells resting on the basement membrane (deep blue) which in turn are embedded in a stroma (pink)

Tubuloalveolar Glands lined by a SingleLlayer of Cuboidal or Columnar Cells

Prostate

The diagram reflects the histological makeup of the prostate characterised by tubuloalveolar glands reflecting their shape combining a tubular shape with a rounded shape to result in a tear drop shape. The epithelium of the glands or acini has irregular contours, and the gland is lined by a single layer of cuboidal or columnar cells. Characteristic also is the accumulation of concretions in the lumen called corpora amylacea which become calcified as the patient ages. These are shown as pink homogeneous concretions organized in layers (lamellated) in the lumen of the gland.

Thyroid Gland

The histological section at 40X magnification using H&E stain shows follicles lined by tall columnar cells with scalloping of the colloid at the edges of the follicle and lymphoid infiltrate in the stroma

Time to Live and Time to Die

Time Apoptosis and a Single Normal Cell

The image represents the life of a single set of columnar cells showing a progressioon of generations as the cell lives dies and is regenerated. The orange secretions of the cell are seen in the background of the pink cytoplasm and the purple nucleus. The nucleus of the newesest generation and cell is seen as a clock that has become distorted and time has become disordered. This process is abnormal and is a forerunner of a malignant process.

Columnar Cells in the Wrong Place – Adenocarcinoma

This specimen is from a biopsy of the liver. The medium power view of malignant adenocarcinoma shows groups of columnar cells arranged in rosettes in a bed aof malignant stromal tissue and surrounded by normal liver. Although the nuclii in this case are not particulalrly enlarged the cytoplasm is basophilic, and the appearance is of a “squatter” in the liver, ie tissue that does not belong, is consistent with metastatic adenocarcinoma malignant cancer liver hepatic adenocarcinoma histopathology

Quantification in Science and Biology

The equation of 1+1 =2 relates to accurate quantification and assigning a number with units to a structural unit or a particular function. The diagram represents some of the measurements we may make with lines, triangles, circles, angles, numbers, and rectangles. It depicts mathematical principles which may be applied to instrumentation that enable accurate measurement of biological structures. We define the elements of biology and medicine by consistent adjectives relating to size, shape, position, and character of the structure or its parts. How structures change with time is another dimension that enables the characterization of structure. The instruments of science and biology in essence either assist us to see structure better or measure these elements.
