Study Notes

Histology of the Digestive System

The digestive system is composed of the gastrointestinal tract/alimentary canal and accessory digestive organs.
The basic processes of the digestive system include ingestion, secretion, mixing and propulsion, motility, digestion, absorption, and defecation.
The oral cavity is composed of lips, three regions, and mucosa, which is lined by stratified squamous nonkeratinized epithelium.
Humans have two sets of teeth: 20 deciduous teeth replaced by 32 permanent teeth composed of 20 succedaneous teeth and 12 molars.
The tongue is a mass of striated muscle covered by a mucous membrane with intrinsic and extrinsic muscles and four types of lingual papillae.
The alimentary canal includes the esophagus, stomach, small intestine (duodenum, jejunum, and ileum), large intestine (cecum, colon, rectum, anal canal, and appendix).
The alimentary canal is composed of four layers: mucosa, submucosa, muscularis externa, and serosa (or adventitia).
The esophagus is a muscular tube covered by an adventitia until it pierces the diaphragm, after which it is covered by a serosa.
The stomach is composed of four regions: gastric cardia, fundus, body (corpus), and pylorus (pyloric antrum).
The epithelial lining of the stomach invaginates into the mucosa, forming gastric pits (foveolae), which are shallowest in the cardiac region and deepest in the pyloric region.
The gastric histology is composed of mucosa, submucosa, muscularis mucosa, muscularis externa, and serosa. The fundic mucosa is composed of mucus cells, parietal cells, chief cells, and DNES cells.
The mucosa of the cardiac region differs from the pyloric region in terms of the depth of the gastric pits and the predominant cell type in the glands.
