## BACKGROUND. The secretory acini of the adult human prostate contain basal, luminal, and intermediate types of exocrine cells. Intermediate cells are thought to play an important role in normal growth and neoplastic transformation. In this study we investigated whether this cell type is present

## Abstract The prostatic epithelium is functionally organized in stem cell units. This unit consists of a slow turn over stem cell within the basal epithelial layer which can replenish itself and provide progeny which differentiate down either a neuroendocrine or exocrine pathway. The maturation a
Human ameloblastoma tissue was investigated using cell culture techniques, transmission electron microscopy and fluorescent microscopy. Cultured cellular morphology was dependent on the type of substratum, with polygonal cells predominant on collagen substrata in contrast to an elongated cellular mo
## Abstract We have recently reported that cell lines of nonparenchymal origin isolated from rat liver and pancreas, which have been suggested to be the progeny of a facultative stem cell compartment in vivo, express an unusual combination of keratins (K). These cell lines express K8 and K14 but no
The paracellular space defines the passive permeation of hydrophilic compounds in epithelia. The goal of this study was to characterise the paracellular permeation pathway in the human intestinal wall and differentiated epithelial cell models (MDCKII, Caco-2 and 2/4/A1). The permeabilities of hydrop
