Epithelial outgrowths from human buccal mucosa transplants in nude mice. 1981

P Holmstrup, and E Dabelsteen, and K Stoltze, and N Worsaae

The histologic features of epithelial outgrowths from transplants of human buccal mucosa in nude mice are described. Nine-six samples of normal buccal mucosa were transplanted to subcutaneous sites in the flank region of nude mice. The tissue specimens were maintained in the mice for periods ranging from 1 to 67 d and were protected from overlying murine cutaneous and subcutaneous tissue by polyethylene capsules or by Millipore filters. The epithelial outgrowth from the transplants were formed over murine connective tissue, with and without substantial infiltrate of neutrophils, and over Millipore filter with and without interjacent murine connective tissue. The stratified squamous epithelium was essentially unkeratinized and thinner than that overlying originally transplanted connective tissue. The histologic features of the outgrowths were similar irrespective of the technique used or the type of underlying tissue.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007365 Intercellular Junctions Direct contact of a cell with a neighboring cell. Most such junctions are too small to be resolved by light microscopy, but they can be visualized by conventional or freeze-fracture electron microscopy, both of which show that the interacting CELL MEMBRANE and often the underlying CYTOPLASM and the intervening EXTRACELLULAR SPACE are highly specialized in these regions.

D009061 Mouth Mucosa Lining of the ORAL CAVITY, including mucosa on the GUMS; the PALATE; the LIP; the CHEEK; floor of the mouth; and other structures. The mucosa is generally a nonkeratinized stratified squamous EPITHELIUM covering muscle, bone, or glands but can show varying degree of keratinization at specific locations.

D004847 Epithelial Cells Cells that line the inner and outer surfaces of the body by forming cellular layers (EPITHELIUM) or masses. Epithelial cells lining the SKIN; the MOUTH; the NOSE; and the ANAL CANAL derive from ectoderm; those lining the RESPIRATORY SYSTEM and the DIGESTIVE SYSTEM derive from endoderm; others (CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM and LYMPHATIC SYSTEM) derive from mesoderm. Epithelial cells can be classified mainly by cell shape and function into squamous, glandular and transitional epithelial cells.
