7 Glands of GI TractHigher magnification image of liver stained with PAS showing different levels of glycogen storage in hepatocytes. Some hepatocytes have numerous glycogen granules, whereas there are other hepatocytes without glycogen granules, indicating depletion of stored glycogen. UCLA Histology Collection.glycogen; Liver; PAS stain; gastrointestinal tractUCLA Histology
8 Glands of GI TractThis images illustrates a section of the liver stained with PAS to visualize the glycogen storage in hepatocytes. Hepatocytes have granules in their cytoplasm due to the presence of stored glycogen. Shown here are also sinusoids and a central vein. UCLA Histology Collection.gastrointestinal tract; glycogen; Liver; pas stainUCLA Histology
9 Glands of GI TractHigher magnification image showing the portal triad with a biliary duct, a branch of hepatic artery and a branch of portal vein embedded within connective tissue, and the hepatocytes. UCLA Histology Collection.Gastrointestinal tract; Liver; portal triadUCLA Histology
10 Glands of GI TractThis image shows Kupffer cells, which are macrophages that are distinguished by their phagocytation of a particulate dye. Note the hepatocyte cords and the sinusoids which separate them. UCLA Histology Collection.Kupffer cells; LiverUCLA Histology
11 Glands of GI TractIn this image you can see a portal triad containing a branch of the portal vein, a small hepatic artery, and a biliary duct embedded in collagenous connective tissue (stained blue by trichrome). Also shown are dark red hepatocytes and pinkish sinusoids. UCLA Histology Collection.gastrointestinal tract; Liver; trichromeUCLA Histology
12 Glands of GI TractAnother area of the liver showing a central vein surrounded by hepatocytes organized into cords which are separated by sinusoids. Nutrient-rich blood from the hepatic portal vein percolates through the sinusoids, where the hepatocytes regulate the nutrient content. The sinusoids drain into central v...gastrointestinal tract; Hepatocyte; LiverUCLA Histology
13 Connective TissueThe lining of the gallbladder is a tall simple columnar epithelium. The underlying loose connective tissue is characterized by a large number of cells relative to collagen fibers. Look for plasma cells here. UCLA Histology Collection.Connective Tissue; Gall bladder; LiverUCLA Histology
14 Circulatory SystemThe lumen is on the far right, with no evident endothelium. The tunica intima and tunica media seem to blend together; the two are relatively small compared with more extensive tunica adventitia. Note the vasa vasorum and blue stained collagen fibers that can be identified within the tunica adventit...Circulatory System; Hepatic cords; hepatic vein; Liver; tunica adventitia; tunica intima; tunica media; vasa vasorumUCLA Histology
15 Glands of GI TractThis low power view of the liver shows the mass of hepatocytes, a central vein and a portal triad composed of a biliary duct, a branch of hepatic artery and a branch of portal vein embedded within connective tissue. UCLA Histology Collection.gastrointestinal tract; hepatic triad; LiverUCLA Histology
16 Glands of GI TractThe staining used in this preparation reveals reticular fibers supporting the hepatocytes which line the sinusoids. Bile canaliculi also bind the dye used here, so they appear black. UCLA Histology Collection.Gastrointestinal tract; Hepatocyte; Liver; reticular fibersUCLA Histology
