13. The ultrastructure of rat laryngeal epithelia.
The histology and ultrastructure of the rat laryngeal epithelia are described. Five epithelial types were identified. Stratified squamous epithelium was found over most of the epiglottis, arytenoid projections and lateral ventricles. The vocal folds were covered by a low squamoid type of epithelium. Respiratory epithelium, similar to that found elsewhere in

14. Quantitative morphometry of squamous cell hyperplasia of the larynx.
The histopathological diagnosis of squamous cell hyperplasia of the larynx is very subjective. Since morphometry is highly reproducible, this method was applied to routine processed slides of 45 such lesions to assess objectively the epithelial characteristics. In each case measurements of nuclei of 50 cells in the basal, intermediate, and superficial cell l

15. Hypothalamic modulation of laryngeal reflexes in the anaesthetized cat: role of the nucleus tractus solitarii.
1. This investigation was initiated because activation of laryngeal afferents, either by electrical stimulation of the superior laryngeal nerve (SLN) or by natural stimulation of receptors in the laryngeal mucosa, results in a cardiorespiratory response comprising bradycardia, hypotension and apnoea (phrenic nerve activity was suppressed). This pattern of re

16. Quantitative analysis of laryngeal mechanosensitivity in the cat and rabbit.
1. Single afferent fibres in the internal branch of the superior laryngeal nerve which responded to light touch or gentle probing of discrete areas of the exposed epithelium of the opened larynx were identified in anaesthetized, paralysed cats (148 fibres) and rabbits (58 fibres). 2. A quantitative examination of the sensitivity of these laryngeal mechanorec

17. Factors affecting invasion of HT-29 and HEp-2 epithelial cells by organisms of the Mycobacterium avium complex.
Organisms of the Mycobacterium avium complex cause disseminated blood-borne infection in patients with AIDS, who acquire the infection mainly through the gastrointestinal tract. Prior to causing infection, M. avium must colonize and invade the intestinal mucosa. This study examined the ability of several serovars of the M. avium complex to bind to and invade

18. Evidence that distinct neural pathways mediate parasympathetic contractions and relaxations of guinea-pig trachealis.
1. The guinea-pig trachea was isolated with its extrinsic innervation intact and pinned to the bottom of a water-jacketed dissecting dish filled with warmed, oxygenated Krebs solution. The trachea was not separated from the oesophagus. Isometric tension was measured in a segment of the rostral portion of the trachea. 2. Stimulation of the vagus nerves caudal
