| pavement epithelium | Epithelium composed of a single layer of flattened scalelike cells, such as mesothelium, endothelium, and that in the pulmonary alveoli. Synonym: pavement epithelium. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| respiratory epithelium | The pseudostratified ciliated epithelium that lines the conducting portion of the airway, including part of the nasal cavity and larynx, the trachea, and bronchi. (05 Mar 2000) |
| mesenchymal epithelium | The flat epithelium derived from mesenchymal cells found lining certain connective tissue spaces such as the anterior chamber of eye, perilymph spaces in the ear, and subdural and subarachnoid spaces. (05 Mar 2000) |
| microscope, simple | <microscopy> A microscope that has a single converging lens (or a combination of lenses that function optically as a single converging lens). Anton van leeuwenhoek (1632-1723) made good use of the simple microscope to look at the life within a drop of water, and such. The magnifying properties of lenses had been well known in ancient times (for example to the greeks and romans) but it was not until about 1600 that it became possible to make small lenses with the precision needed to make a microscope.

| pigmented retinal epithelium | Layer of unusual phagocytic epithelial cells lying below the photoreceptors of the vertebrate eye. The dorsal surface of the PRE cell is closely apposed to the ends of the rods and as discs are shed from the rod outer segment they are internalised and digested by the PRE. Do not have desmosomes or cytokeratins in some species. (18 Nov 1997) |
| pigment epithelium | Epithelium composed of cells containing granules of pigment or melanin, as in the retinal or iris pigment layer. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pigment epithelium of eye | Epithelium in the retina, ciliary body, and iris containing pigment granules. (12 Dec 1998) |
| pigment epithelium of optic retina | pigmented part of retina |
| muscle epithelium | Spindle-shaped, contractile, smooth muscle-like cells of epithelial origin that are arranged longitudinally or obliquely around sweat glands and the secretory alveoli of the mammary gland; stellate myoepithelial cells occur around lacrimal and some salivary gland secretory units. Synonym: muscle epithelium. Origin: myo-+ epithelium (05 Mar 2000) |
| crevicular epithelium | The stratified squamous epithelium lining the inner aspect of the soft tissue wall of the gingival sulcus. Synonym: sulcular epithelium. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cuboidal epithelium | Simple epithelium with cells appearing as cubes in a vertical section but as polyhedra in surface view. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cylindrical epithelium | Epithelium formed of a single layer of prismatic cells taller than they are wide. Synonym: cylindrical epithelium. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pseudostratified epithelium | An epithelium that gives a superficial appearance of being stratified because the cell nuclei are at different levels, but in which all cells reach the basement membrane, hence it is classed as a simple epithelium. (05 Mar 2000) |
| seminiferous epithelium | Specialised epithelium lining the seminiferous tubules containing developing and mature spermatozoa and sertoli cells. (12 Dec 1998) |
| simple | Undivided, of a leaf, not divided into leaflets, of a hair or an inflorescence, not branched. (09 Oct 1997) |
