epithelia

Thus, CFTR -/- homozygotes displayed defective chloride transport in epithelia of airways and intestines, failure to thrive, meconium ileus, and pathological alterations of gastrointestinal glands.

In the absence of injury, many cell types such as epithelia and blood cells turn over rapidly, while others such as hepatocytes, myofibers, osteocytes, and most neurons, have low turnover rates or do not turn over at all.

Different Hydra species in the lab under controlled conditions have recognizably different populations of bacteria living on their epithelia, and Hydra of the same species collected in the wild have similar distributions of species.

No metazoan is an island - The Panda's Thumb 2010

I'm used to thinking in terms of networks of genes: there are regulatory interactions between genes in a single cell that establish cell-type specific patterns of gene activity; all express a common core of genes, but different cell types, such as a neuron vs. a cell of the digestive epithelia, will also have their own unique special-purpose genes switched on.

No metazoan is an island - The Panda's Thumb 2010

Bacteria are present in the gut from a very early age, and populate the digestive epithelia.

Expression of Cre and hence targeting of the floxed gene can be restricted to e.g. T cells (lck promoter), cardiac muscle (cardiac myosin promoter), neurons (enolase promoter) or epithelia (cytokeratin promoter).

The epithelia secrete them constitutively into the thin layer of fluid that lies above the apical surface of the epithelium but below the viscous mucous layer.

Some epithelia are relatively impermeable; others are readily crossed.

Chylomicrons are synthesized continuously in the intestinal epithelia the lining of the intestine and enter the circulation following the ingestion of fat as triglyceride-enriched particles.

Along this line of research, Marilyn Farquhar and I investigated the capillaries of the renal glomeruli and recognized that, in their case, the basement membrane is the filtration barrier for molecules of 100A diameter or larger; a byproduct of this work was the definition of junctional complexes in a variety of epithelia.
