4.1.1 POJA-L-4057+4058. Enteroendocrine cell in jejunum (rat)
4.1.1 POJA-L4057+4058
Title: Enteroendocrine cell in jejunum (rat)
Description: Electron micrograph.
The endocrine cells (1) in the (small) intestine are characterized by the numerous small electron dense granules located in the basal area of the cell, near the basal lamina of the crypts. The neighbor-cells (2) are columnar cells for the resorption of digested food.
Note the numerous folding’s at the basal site of the cells (*).The intestinal tract contains a considerable variation of enteroendocrine cells with probably more than 30 different hormones such as, glucagon, gastrin, histamine, cholecystokinin, somatostatin, secretin, glucagon, serotonin etc.
Keywords/Mesh: enteroendocrine cells, small intestine, jejunum, electron microscopy, histology, POJA collection
