False-colour SEM of gastric glands of stomach
Gastric gland: false-colour scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of the mucous membrane lining the stomach, showing the shadowy entrances to a number of gastric glands. The glands secrete gastric juice (hydrochloric acid & the enzyme pepsin) and a protective mucous, derived from the simple, columnar cells (moss-like) that comprise the mucosa. Gastric glands are formed by simple invagination or tubular ingrowth of this mucosa into the underlying layer of tissue, the lamina propria. Magnification: x300 at 6x7cm size

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intricate beauty of the gastric glands found in the lining of our stomachs. In this false-colour scanning electron micrograph (SEM), we are presented with a mesmerizing view of the mucous membrane, revealing the mysterious entrances to numerous gastric glands. These remarkable glands play a vital role in our digestive system by secreting gastric juice, which consists of hydrochloric acid and pepsin, an enzyme crucial for breaking down proteins. Additionally, they produce a protective mucous derived from simple columnar cells that make up the mucosa. The formation of these gastric glands occurs through a process known as invagination or tubular ingrowth, where the mucosa extends into the underlying tissue layer called lamina propria. This unique arrangement allows for efficient secretion and absorption within our stomachs. At a magnification level of x300 on a 6x7cm size scale, this microscopic image provides us with an extraordinary glimpse into one aspect of human anatomy - specifically focusing on digestion and gut health. The false colouring enhances visual clarity while maintaining scientific accuracy. This stunning photograph is part of Science Photo Library's extensive collection showcasing various subjects related to anatomy and physiology. It serves as both an educational tool and an artistic representation that highlights the complexity and wonderment hidden within our own bodies.
