AbstractThe study was conducted on 36 developing reticulum from healthy and normal embryos/ foeti of Indian goat. Embryos/foeti were assigned into three groups. Histo-differentiation of reticulum of goat stomach took place at 38 days of gestation. The wall of foetal reticulum was made up of three strata i. e. epithelium, pleuripotent blastemic tissue and serosa up to 49 days of fetal age and definite four layers viz. epithelium, propria-submucosa, tunica muscularis and serosa were observed first at 51 days of gestation. Upto 100 days of gestation the reticulum was lined by undifferentiated stratified epithelium and thereafter gradually transformed into stratified squamous epithelium. Keratinization was noticed at term. Primary and secondary reticular crests made their appearance at 60 and 112 days of gestation, respectively. Corial papillae were detected in primary and secondary reticular crests at 121 and 145 days of gestation, respectively. Near term, the core of the reticular crest also contained muscularis mucosae in its proximal 1/3rd region while core of the corial papillae contained only lamina propria. Reticular, collagen and elastic fibers came into sight at 46, 100 and 134 days of gestation, respectively.Summary statementThe study was conducted on intrauterine reticulum of Indian goat. From this study it can be concluded that the histogenesis of reticulum was almost completed in prenatal life. However, to become functional it still required more time as the relative sizes of reticulum and process of keratinization were yet to be completed.

Domestical catfish is grouped into omnivora, although the fish is tended into carnivora.  The aim of the present study was to investigate histology of alimentary tract of domestical catfish (Clarias batrachus). In order to determine alimentary tract of domestical catfish, oesophagus, gastric and intestines is investigated by Haematoxilin Eosin. Histology exploration was performed each layer of alimentary tract’s wall consist of lamina epithelia, propria, and muscularis mucosa. Collagen connective tissue was developed tunica submucosa. The muscle of tunica muscularis was performed circular and elongated. Dense connective tissue and blood vessels was located in the tunica serosa. Histology exploration revealed has stratified squamous epithelium, mucosit cells, eosinophilic club cells on the lamina epithelia, and taste buds on the lamina propria in oesophagus. Gastric was establised simple prismatic cells, and glands of gastric on the lamina propria. Furthermore intestine was showed villi and goblet cells. There were not showed Brunner and Liberkhun gland. In conclusion, histology of alimentary tract was revealed from tunica mucosa, submucosa, and serosa.

The morphology of the esophageal mucosa in long-eared owl (Asio otus) and Eurasian jay (Garrulus glandarius) has been studied. Samples with exception of the region of the esophageal tonsil were obtained from 3 adult birds of each species. They were studied by light microscopy using classical methods of morphological research. The tissue samples were fixed in 10% neutral buffered formalin and embedded in paraffin block and finally the section were cut at 5–10 µm thickness using sliding microtome and stained with hematoxylin and eosin, according to Van Gizon and Weigert and impregnated with silver nitrate according to Kelemen. The esophageal mucosa consisted of four layers: epithelium, lamina propria, muscularis mucosae, and submucosa. The epithelium was stratified squamous and better developed in the cranial part of the esophagus. The lamina propria was represented by a loose connective tissue with small amount of elastic fibers. In the long-eared owl tightly located numerous small secretory sections of the esophagus glands organised in 1–3, and in branches of large folds up to 6 layers, were found. Their short excretory ducts opened to the surface of the mucosa. The muscularis mucosae was represented by a smooth muscle tissue with bundles of cells directed longitudinally and in some areas appeared to be absent. The submucosa was well developed, and as well as lamina propria was formed by a loose connective tissue with a large number of elastic fibers. In the submucosa of the Eurasian jay secretory departments of large, not tightly located, esophageal mucous glands were found. The esophageal mucosa of this birds formed well-developed folds, which were composed of  all its layers. Their number in the long-eared owl was 20–25 and in the Eurasian jay – 5–9. The shape of folds on the transverse section is not the same: in the long-eared owl it was finger-shaped and leaf-shaped, but in the Eurasian jay it was wedge-shaped. Some large folds in the long-eared owl branched into the secondary mucosal folds. The height of folds in cranial part of the esophagus was larger than in caudal part. In both parts of the esophagus of long-eared owl  the height of the large and middle folds was larger than that in the Eurasian jay. The height of small folds in the Eurasian jay was greater than that in the long-eared owl. In both parts of the esophagus of this birds, the fold’s width at the base exceeded its width at the top. In the Eurasian jay the width of base and top of large, medium and small folds was larger than that in the long-eared owl. The esophageal mucosa was poor on immune formations. They were represented by single accumulations of diffuse lymphoid tissue, and in the Eurasian jay – even by secondary lymphoid nodules.

The gross and microscopic structure of the auditory meatus of the harp seal (Pagophilus groenlandicus) is described from dissections and serial sections. The meatus bends ventrally from the oval external orifice, posteroventrally, ventrally, and finally medially into the cranium. The ventrally directed wall of the meatus is membranous, the posteroventral and ventrally directed wall is incompletely wrapped by cartilage, and the medially directed wall is bony. The areas between sections of the cartilaginous wall ate completed by connective tissue. The meatus is closed internally by the intrinsic helicis and antitragicus auricular muscles. The external orifice is closed by the superficial auricular muscles. The auditory meatus is lined with stratified squamous epithelium, sebaceous glands, and ceruminous glands. Longitudinal blood sinuses and elastic fibers in the hypodermis may function as a pressure regulating device during diving. Blood sinuses are most prominent in the bony region of the meatus and extend into the tympanic sulcus of the pars tensa. Blood sinuses engorged with blood and a closed meatus may enhance transmission of sound to the tympanic membrane when the seal is under water.

The histological observations of this study which conducted on nasal cavity of black Iraqi goat revealed that the nasal cavity consisted of three regions (vestibular, respiratory and olfactory(.The vestibular region was narrow zone, lined with (non keratinized) stratified squamous epithelium, and its propria submucosa contained serous glands and blood vessels.The respiratory region was lined with ciliated pseudostratified columnar epithelia with goblet cells. The vascular propria submucosa had mucous glands, which were positive to periodic acdic shieff and Alcian blue stains. The olfactory region was lined with thick pseudostratified columnar epithelium devoid of goblet cells and contained, the propria submucosa serous simple acinus Alcian positive glands (Bowman's glands) and numerous nerve bundles. The histological results concluded that the nasal cavity of black Iraqi goat was good adaptive tooled for hot dusty environment.

The present study was conducted on the tongue of 18 goat foetii divided into three prenatal age groups viz- Group I ( below 50 days of gestation), Group II ( between 50-100 days of gestation) and Group III ( above 100 days of gestation to up to full term) containing 6 number of foetii in each group to study the sequential events in regard to histological development of the same in goat foetii. The tongue was lined by 3-4 layered epithelium in the foetus at 40 days of gestation (CRL= 2.40cm). The lingual epithelium consisted of a basal layer of cuboidal cells with squamous to cuboidal shaped more superficial layers. At 62 days of gestation (CRL= 10.10 cm), the lamina epithelialis of the tongue of goat foetus was distinctly stratified. At this stage of development, the epithelial layers could be divided into dark basal and a light apical or superficial zones. At 80-84 days of gestation (CRL=15.3 to 16.0 cm), the stratified squamous epithelium of the tongue was better developed both on the dorsum and ventral surfaces. At 93 days of gestation (CRL= 20.6 cm), the stratified squamous epithelium of the tongue was well developed and all the layers of the epithelium could be observed. In the foetii of gestational age of 100 days onwards, the lingual epithelium of the tongue showed various degrees of keratinization. Thus, it was concluded that the tongue of goat was lined with 3-4 layers of epithelial cells. The degree of stratification increased with an increase in gestational age. Also with age there was an increase in the degree of keratinization. This research further implicated that with further advancement of age the basal layer of the epithelium comprised high cylindrical cells along with well defined basement membrane. The decrepancy of histogenesis and keratogenesis between different species may be due to difference in the duration of the gestation period.

The aim of this study is the detailed description of the esophageal microscopic structure in guinea pigs. Fragments from the cervical, thoracic and abdominal segments of the esophagus were processed for classical paraffin embedding and the sections were stained by hematoxylin-eosin and Goldner’s trichrome methods. The esophagus in guinea pigs is lined by keratinized stratified squamous epithelium and there are no glands in the lamina propria and the submucosa. The muscularis mucosae is formed by smooth muscle cells disposed longitudinally. The muscularis externa is formed by striated muscle cells disposed on 3 layers in the first 2 thirds of the esophagus, while in some regions of the abdominal segment’s circumference, the cells form 4 layers.

The stratified squamous epithelium which lines the ruminal compartment of the bovine stomach performs at least three important functions. (1) The upper keratinized layer forms a protective shield against the rough, fibrous, constantly moving ingesta. (2) It is an organ of absorption since a number of substances are absorbed directly through the epithelium. These include short chain fatty acids, potassium, sodium and chloride ions, water, and many others. (3) The cells of the deeper layers metabolize butyric acid and to a lesser extent propionic and acetic acids which are the fermentation products of rumen digestion. Because of the functional characteristics, this epithelium is important in the digestive process of ruminant species which convert large quantities of rough, fibrous feed into energy.Tissue used in this study was obtained by biopsy through a rumen fistula from clinically healthy, yearling holstein steers. The animals had been fed a typical diet of hay and grain and the ruminal papillae were fully developed. The tissue was immediately immersed in 1% osmium tetroxide buffered to a pH of 7.4 and fixed for 2 hrs. The tissue blocks were embedded in Vestapol-W, sectioned with a Porter-Blum microtome with glass knives and stained with lead hydroxide. The sections were studied with an RCA EMU 3F electron microscope.
