DIGESTIVE SYSTEM II


GIT OR ALIMENTARY CANAL

? This is in the form of tube.
? Extend from oral cavity to

anus.

? Parts of GIT--
? Oral cavity
? Pharynx
? Oesophagus
? Stomach
? Small intestine
? Colon
? Rectum
? Anal canal
INTRODUCTION

? GENERAL HISTOLOGY OF ALIMENTARY CANAL

? It is tubular structure
? Four layers in the wall
? Layers from deep to superficial:--

I) Mucosa

- Epithelium
- Lamina propria
- Muscularis Mucosae

II) Submucosa

III) Muscle layer

IV) Serous layer / Adventitial layer


MUCOSA

? Innermost layer of alimentary canal.

? Epithelium

It is simple columnar (Absorption/secretion) all

over

except in the Oesophagus and the lower part of

Anal canal where it is stratified squamous

(Protection).
Organ

Epithelium

Mouth

Nonkeratinized Stratified Squamous

Pharynx

Nonkeratinized Stratified Squamous

Esophagus

Nonkeratinized Stratified Squamous

Stomach

Simple Columnar

Small Intestine

Simple Columnar

Large Intestine

Simple Columnar

Anus

Nonkeratinized Stratified Squamous
? Lamina propria

? Layers of loose connective tissue
? Supports the epithelium
? Contains blood and lymphatic vessels
? It also contain glands (gastric glands)
? It also contains mucosa associated lymphoid

tissue (MALT).
? Muscularis mucosae

- Thin layer of smooth

muscle that separates

lamina propria with the

submucosa.

- Inner layer: Circular
- Outer layer: Longitudinal
- It changes the shape of

mucosa, that helps in

absorption and secretion
SUBMUCOSA

? Consists of dense connective tissue rich in

collagen and elastic fibres.

? Contain numerous blood vessels, lymphatics

and nerve fibres and Meissner's plexus.

? It also contains glands (oesophagus and

duodenum)
MUSCLE LAYER

? It consists of smooth muscles all over GIT except

upper part of oesophagus which contain skeletal

muscles.

? Arranged in two layers
- Inner layer: Circular
- Outer layer: Longitudinal
Between the two layers "Auerbach's plexus

(Myenteric plexus)" is present.

This plexus controles motility of tract.
SEROSA /ADVENTITIA

? It is merely visceral peritoneum composed of

connective tissue and simple squamous

epithelium.

? The oesophagus lies outside the abdominal

cavity has a superficial layer called Adventitia

which consists of areolar connective tissue
OESOPHAGUS

? It is a straight muscular tube extending from pharynx

in neck to the stomach in abdomen.

? MUCOSA:

Epithelium: Non-Keratinised sratified squamous

epithelium
Lamina Propria: Thin layer of loose connective tissue.
Muscularis Mucosae:
- It is thicker than other parts of GIT
- It is single layer of longitudinally running smooth

muscle fibres.
? SUBMUCOSA:

? It is a wide layer of, dense connective tissue

composed of bundles of collagen and elastic

fibres.

? Due to elastic fibres, submucosa is thrown into

folds, hence lumen of oesophagus appears star

shaped

? Contains blood vessels and branched tubulo-

alveolar mucous glands
? MUSCLE LAYER

? Arranged in two layers:
- Inner layer: Circular
- Outer layer: Longitudinal
* Between the two layers ? Myenteric plexus of

nerve fibre and ganglion cells are present. It

controls peristaltic movement.

TYPES OF MUSCLES:
Upper 1/3rd ? Skeletal muscle
Middle 1/3rd ? Both skeletal and smooth muscle
Lower 1/3rd ? purely smooth muscle
? SEROSA / ADVEVTITIA

? It consists of loose areolar connective tissue,

which merges with the connective tissue of

surrounding structures.

HISTOLOGY OF STOMACH
INTRODUCTION

? On the basis of histological structure, stomach is

divided into three region:--

? i)Cardiac region
? ii)Fundic(or body) region
? iii)Pyloric region
? The stomach wall exhibits four general regions:--
? Mucosa-- a) Lining epithelium, b) Lamina propria,

c) Musularis mucosae

? Submucosa
? Muscle layer and
? Serosa .


FUNDIC OR BODY REGION

? Mucosa
? a)Lining epithelium
? Simple columnar

epithelium that

invaginates to various

extents into the lamina

propria, forming gastric

pits.

- These cells are involved in

mucus secretion. The

mucus protects the

epithelial lining from

damage due to the

presence of acid in the

stomach.
? b)Lamina propria--
? Small tubular fundic/gastric glands are present.

Types of cells:

i) Mucous neck cells ? Located just below gastric pit.

- Columnar in shape
- Contain mucinogen
- Produces soluble mucus

? Parietal or oxyntic cells:
? Large ,rounded or pyramidal in shape
? Found in upper half of gastric gland.
? Secretes HCL and intrinsic factor. Intrinsic

factor combines with vitamin B12

? Chief or zymogenic cells:
? - Located in the lower 1/3rd of gastric glands
? - Secrete pepsinogen which is converted into

pepsin in an acid environment.

? Enteroendocrine and APUD cells:

- Located in the basal portion of gastric glands
- Secretes serotonin, histamine and gastrin.

These are endocrine cells which release their

products into the blood vessels.

c)Mucularis mucosae--
It consists of two thin layer of smooth muscles.

Outer longitudinal

inner circular
SUBMUCOSA:
Consists of blood vessels, lymphatic vessels

and Meissner's plexus.

MUSCLE LAYER:
Inner: Oblique
Middle: circular
Outer: Longitudinal
SEROSA:
Outermost layers which consists of loose

connective tissue covered by mesothelium

DUODENUM

? Mucosa--villi (finger like mucosal projection)
--Intestinal gland (crypts of lieberkuhn)

? Submucosa--Duodenal gland (Brunner's gland)

present

? Secrete alkaline mucus that protect the mucosa

from acid secreted by stomach.

? Also secretes human epidermal growth factor

(which decreases HCL sec ).


JEJUNUM

? Villi are tongue

shaped and long

? Absence of

Brunner's

glands.


ILEUM

? Presence of

lymphoid

aggregations in

lamina propria

known as Peyer's

patches.

? Villi are short &

finger like
LARGE INTESTINE

? It consists of: appendix, colon, rectum and anal canal.
? Mucosa: Absence of Plicae circulares and villi
Presence of Microvilli
Presence of Crypts of Lieberkuhn
Presence of Goblet cells in large number
? Submucosa
? Muscle layer:
Inner circular layer - thin compared to small intestine.
Outer longitudinal layer- forms Taenia coli.
? Adventitia: Appendices epiploicae (peritoneum forms

pouch like processes filled with fat)
APPENDIX

? A small blind-ending diverticulum.
? Large accumulations of lymphoid tissue in

lamina propria which may extend into submucosa.

? Intestinal villi are usually absent.
? Crypts are poorly formed.
? Muscularis externa is thin.
? Absence of taenia coli.
