1. To maintain homeostasis in the mucosae, different defense mechanisms are involved in permanent and effective surveillance.

2. The muscularis mucosae derived from the muscle stem cells in the submucosa.

3. The digestive tract is varied in the mucosae and muscularis among the different parts such as esophagus, stomach and intestine.

4. Methods: The thickness of muscularis mucosae of 107 cases of gastric carcinoma with 3 to 8 years follow up data and 47 cases of benign lesions of stomach were studied with morphometric methods.

5. Cancerous mucosae obtained from 30 cases with large intestinal cancer through colonoscope were cultured for anaerobes qualitatively and quantitatively.

6. The computerised image analysis showed that there is no architectural difference between gluten sensitivity and disease control rectal mucosae.

7. Arteriovenousanastomoses were observed in the inferior and middle turbinal mucosae of fetuses.

8. Objective:To investigate the effect of Shengjiang Powder on expression of ICAM-1 of lung bronchiolar epithelium mucosae in acute lung injury rats.

9. Conclusion: Ainsliaea fragrans Champ's therapeutic effect has a relation with its raising EGF express of earlier period in rat cervix mucosae.
