Fine Art Print : False colour SEM of entrance to gastric gland
Fine Art Prints from Science Photo Library
False colour SEM of entrance to gastric gland
False-colour scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of the mucous membrane lining the stomach, showing the entrance to a gastric gland. The stomach glands produce hydrochloric acid, mucous, digestive enzymes (pepsin) & hormones, substances derived from the simple columnar cells that comprise the moss-like mucous membrane (mucosa). Gastric glands are formed by simple invagination or tubular ingrowth of this mucosa into the underlying layer. The secretion of mucous serves to protect the epithelium from digestion by the other secretory products. Magnification: x720 at 6x7cm size

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a false-colour scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of the entrance to a gastric gland, found within the stomach's mucous membrane. The intricate details captured in this image reveal the complex workings of our digestive system at a microscopic level. The stomach glands depicted here play a vital role in digestion by producing various substances such as hydrochloric acid, mucous, digestive enzymes like pepsin, and hormones. These secretions are derived from the simple columnar cells that make up the moss-like mucous membrane or mucosa. Gastric glands form through an ingenious process where the mucosa invaginates or grows into the underlying layer. This arrangement allows for efficient secretion and protection of the epithelium from being digested by other secretory products. At a magnification of x720 and printed at 6x7cm size, this SEM image offers us an extraordinary glimpse into one aspect of our body's inner workings. It serves as a reminder of both the complexity and beauty found within our anatomy. Whether you have an interest in anatomy, gut health, or simply appreciate stunning magnified images, this print is sure to captivate your imagination. Explore the hidden world within our bodies with this remarkable piece from Science Photo Library.
