Exempel på hur man kan använda MESOTHELIUM i en mening

• It covers most of the intra-abdominal (or coelomic) organs, and is composed of a layer of mesothelium supported by a thin layer of connective tissue.
• The mesothelium is a membrane composed of simple squamous epithelial cells of mesodermal origin, which forms the lining of several body cavities: the pleura (pleural cavity around the lungs), peritoneum (abdominopelvic cavity including the mesentery, omenta, falciform ligament and the perimetrium) and pericardium (around the heart).
• In the development of the urinary and reproductive organs, the testis is developed in much the same way as the ovary, originating from mesothelium as well as mesonephros.
• Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved pemetrexed for treatment of malignant pleural mesothelioma, a type of tumor of the mesothelium, the thin layer of tissue that covers many of the internal organs, in combination with cisplatin for patients whose disease is either unresectable or who are not otherwise candidates for curative surgery.
• The serous membrane (or serosa) is a smooth tissue membrane of mesothelium lining the contents and inner walls of body cavities, which secrete serous fluid to allow lubricated sliding movements between opposing surfaces.
• Simple squamous epithelia are found in endothelium (lining of blood and lymph capillaries), mesothelium (coelomic epithelium/peritoneum), alveoli of lungs, glomeruli, and other tissues where rapid diffusion is required.
• Using immunohistochemistry, calretinin can be demonstrated in both benign mesothelium and in malignant mesothelioma and can be used to help differentiate different lung tumours.
• PTCs originate from the mesothelium and are presumed to be remnants of the Müllerian duct and Wolffian duct.
• Mesenteries are made up of a coelomic epithelium layer that lies over a layer of muscles, this is known as the mesothelium.
• MeT-5a (Mesothelial cells transfected with pRSV-T 5A) is an epithelial cell line from the human pleural mesothelium that was isolated from the pleural fluids of non-cancerous adult male individual and subsequently transfected with a PBR322 based plasmid containing the coding region for SV40 in order to immortalise them.
