Pseudostratified Ciliated Columnar Epithelium 3 slide 126 trachea

Microscopic image, stained pink and purple, presents pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelium in a cross-sectional view. A row of columnar cells with cilia at their apical surfaces sits atop visible irregularly shaped nuclei and cytoplasm. Below it is visible are bundles of long, stretched collagen fibers of the lamina propria. The sample is bright and clear with a white background.

A microscopic image shows pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelium. Ciliated cells line the top edge, their nuclei visible within the cell bodies. Beneath, a layer of connective tissue is visible.
