Description |
Low power view of a plica circularis of the jejunum; this is a fold of mucosa and submucosa. Many poorly preserved villi, evaginations of lamina propria and epithelium, can be seen protruding from the plica circularis. Invaginations of the epithelium into the lamina propria form intestinal glands called crypts of Lieberkuhn. The crypts contain absorptive cells, goblet cells, stem cells, enteroendocrin cells, Paneth cells. UCLA Histology Collection. |
