-
- Ampulla- cells are in follicular phase
- greatest epithelial height
- Simple and Pseudostratified columnar ciliated and nonciliated epithelium
-
- Ampulla
- in luteal phase, hard to see in this picture but the epithelium is lower and non-ciliated cells are sticking out due to greater shrinkage of the ciliated cells
- Simple and Pseudostratified columnar ciliated and non ciliated epithelium
-
- Ampulla- Luteal phase
- extrusion of non-ciliated cells due to lower epithelium height of ciliated cells
- Simple and Pseudostratified Columnar ciliated and nonciliated epithelium
-
- Ampulla- follicular
- greatest epithelial height
- Simple and Pseudostratified columnar ciliated and nonciliated epithelium
-
- Anterior Vagina- Follicular: nuclei lined up at base of cells
- Simple Columnar with some Goblet cells
-
- Cervix-Follicular: lumen is very narrow, goblet cells are active
- Simple columnar ciliated and non ciliated with some Goblet cells
-
- Cervix-Luteal: very large nuclei and fewer Goblet cells
- Simple columnar ciliated and nonciliated with some Goblet cells
-
- Fornix Vagina- Follicular: higher epithelium, more active Goblet cells
- Simple Columnar with LOTS of Goblet cells
- Pointer indicates a Goblet cell
-
- Fornix Vagina-Luteal: lower epithelium,less active Goblet cells
- Simple Columnar with lots of Goblet cells
-
- Isthmus-Follicular: greatest epithelial height
- simple and pseudostratified ciliated and non ciliated columnar epithelium
-
- Isthmus-Luteal: lower epithelial heights. extrusion of the non-ciliated cells due to greater height decrease in the ciliated cells
- Simple and Pseudostratified ciliated and non ciliated columnar epithelium
-
- Ovary:
- (not pictured) superficial epithelium is simple cuboidal
- Cortex: contains follicles and CL
-
- Posterior Vagina-Follicular: thicker epithelium
- Stratified Squamous epithelium
-
- Posterior Vagina-Luteal: thinner epithelium
- Stratified Squamous epithelium
-
- Uterus (intercaruncular/ Glandular)-Follicular
- Uterine glands are less developed and appear straight
- simple and pseudostratified columnar
-
- Uterus (intercaruncular/glandular)-Luteal: uterine glands are highly developed and coiled, epithelial cells are tall
- Simple and pseudostratified columnar
-
