Bladder lining

Bladder epithelium. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of the partially-sectioned epithelium of a healthy urinary bladder. This lining is formed from epithelial cells which have tiny plaques (purple & green dots) on their surface. The epithelium is highly folded. The plaques and folds enable the bladder to deal with the large changes in surface area which occur as it fills or empties. Magnification unknown

Epithelium Histology Lining Mucosa Urinary Bladder Urinary System Sectioned


EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases the intricate beauty of a healthy bladder lining. Under the magnification of an unknown level, we are presented with a coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) that reveals the partially-sectioned epithelium of the urinary bladder. The bladder lining, composed of specialized epithelial cells, is adorned with tiny plaques in shades of purple and green. These distinctive plaques can be observed dotting the surface of each cell, adding to their visual allure. The highly folded nature of this epithelium is also evident in this image. These remarkable features serve a crucial purpose - enabling the bladder to adapt to significant changes in surface area as it fills or empties. As urine accumulates within the bladder during hydration or other bodily processes, these folds and plaques accommodate its expanding volume without compromising functionality. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, this photograph offers valuable insights into human anatomy and histology. It provides us with a closer look at one component of our complex urinary system - specifically highlighting the mucosa and epithelial layers within the urinary bladder. Science Photo Library continues to provide exceptional imagery that bridges artistry and scientific exploration. This particular print serves as a reminder that even on a microscopic scale, there is immense wonder waiting to be discovered within our own bodies.
