Blood vascular architecture of the rat lingual papillae with special reference to their relations to the connective tissue papillae and surface structures: a light and scanning electron microscope study

Subepithelial blood vessels of the rat lingual papillae and their spatial relations to the connective tissue papillae and surface structures were demonstrated by light and scanning electron microscopy. In the rat, four types of papillae were distinguished on the dorsal surface of the tongue, i.e. the filiform, fungiform, foliate and circumvallate papillae. Vascular beds of various appearance were found in all four types of lingual papillae: a simple or twisted capillary loop in the filiform papilla; a basket- or petal-like network in the fungiform papilla; a ring-like network in the foliate papilla, and a conglomerated network surrounded by double heart-shaped capillary networks in the circumvallate papilla. These characteristic vascular beds corresponded to the shape of the connective tissue papillae and surface structures. The vascular bed beneath the gustatory epithelium in the fungiform, foliate and circumvallate papilla consisted of fine capillary networks next to the taste buds.     

Scanning electron microscopic study on the structure of the lingual papillae of the Saanen goat

The morphology of lingual papillae of the ten male mature Saanen goats (11 months old, approximately 42 kg in weight and of a known pedigree) was examined by scanning electron microscopy. Tissues were taken from the dorsal and ventral surfaces of the apex, body and root of the tongue, and were prepared accordingly and observed under the scanning electron microscope. On the dorsal and ventro-lateral surfaces of the lingual mucosa, three types of mechanical papillae (filiform, lenticular, and conical) and two types of gustatory papillae (vallate and fungiform) were observed. The structure and density of the filiform papillae differentiated on the anterior, posterior and ventro-lateral aspects of the tongue. Two types of lenticular papillae, both possessing a prominent surrounding papillary groove, were determined. The pyramidal-shaped type I lenticular papilla had a pointed apex while the round-shaped type II lenticular papilla possessed a blunt apex. Certain number of the type I lenticular papillae had double apices. The larger conical papillae were hollow structures, differing structurally from the filiform papillae with their larger size, a tip without projections and lack of the secondary papillae. The vallate papillae were present on both rims of the torus linguae, were encircled by a prominent gustatory furrow which was also surrounded by a thick annular fold. The fungiform papillae were scattered among the filiform papillae in the anterior two-thirds of the dorsal and lateral surfaces, and each of them was highly protected by surrounding filiform papillae, yet encircled by a papillary groove. Our findings indicate that Saanen goat have profuse distribution of papillae on the tongue displaying morphological features characteristic of mechanical function.     

Cyclopamine and jervine in embryonic rat tongue cultures demonstrate a role for Shh signaling in taste papilla development and patterning: fungiform papillae double in number and form in novel locations in dorsal lingual epithelium

From time of embryonic emergence, the gustatory papilla types on the mammalian tongue have stereotypic anterior and posterior tongue locations. Furthermore, on anterior tongue, the fungiform papillae are patterned in rows. Among the many molecules that have potential roles in regulating papilla location and pattern, Sonic hedgehog (Shh) has been localized within early tongue and developing papillae. We used an embryonic, tongue organ culture system that retains temporal, spatial, and molecular characteristics of in vivo taste papilla morphogenesis and patterning to study the role of Shh in taste papilla development. Tongues from gestational day 14 rat embryos, when papillae are just beginning to emerge on dorsal tongue, were maintained in organ culture for 2 days. The steroidal alkaloids, cyclopamine and jervine, that specifically disrupt the Shh signaling pathway, or a Shh-blocking antibody were added to the standard culture medium. Controls included tongues cultured in the standard medium alone, and with addition of solanidine, an alkaloid that resembles cyclopamine structurally but that does not disrupt Shh signaling. In cultures with cyclopamine, jervine, or blocking antibody, fungiform papilla numbers doubled on the dorsal tongue with a distribution that essentially eliminated inter-papilla regions, compared with tongues in standard medium or solanidine. In addition, fungiform papillae developed on posterior oral tongue, just in front of and beside the single circumvallate papilla, regions where fungiform papillae do not typically develop. The Shh protein was in all fungiform papillae in embryonic tongues, and tongue cultures with standard medium or cyclopamine, and was conspicuously localized in the basement membrane region of the papillae. Ptc protein had a similar distribution to Shh, although the immunoproduct was more diffuse. Fungiform papillae did not develop on pharyngeal or ventral tongue in cyclopamine and jervine cultures, or in the tongue midline furrow, nor was development of the single circumvallate papilla altered. The results demonstrate a prominent role for Shh in fungiform papilla induction and patterning and indicate differences in morphogenetic control of fungiform and circumvallate papilla development and numbers. Furthermore, a previously unknown, broad competence of dorsal lingual epithelium to form fungiform papillae on both anterior and posterior oral tongue is revealed.     

A scanning electron microscopic study of the dorsal surface of the human tongue

To study the dorsal surface of the human tongue using a scanning electron microscopy (SEM), tissue specimens were taken from the anterior part of the tongues of 15 individuals aged from 21- to 28-years-old. The formalin-fixed samples were processed routinely for SEM. With SEM the surface of the normal tongue mucosa was shown to be rather evenly covered by filiform papillae, with some fungiform papillae scattered among them. Filiform papillae consisted of two parts: the body and hairs. The mucosal surface of the body was smooth; the squamous epithelial cells were polygonal, and their boundaries were prominent. On the surface of the superficial epithelial cells were parallel or branching microplicae. Each filiform papilla had 6-10 hairs, which were scaled and covered by an extensive plaque of microorganism. The upper surface of the fungiform papillae was smooth; only a few desquamating cells were seen. The superficial cells had a pitted appearance and cell boundaries overlapped. Taste pores, up to 3 pores in a single papilla, were found on the upper surface. Desquamation was more pronounced on the base of the fungiform papillae than on the upper surface. In almost all fungiform papillae some hairs protruded from the base. Parallel microplicae were found on the surface of the superficial cells of the base. The structure and function of the human tongue, as well as the microplicae of its superficial cells, are compared to those of various species of animals.     

Scanning electron microscope study of tongue development in the CD-1 mouse fetus

The objective of this study was to examine three dimensionally the embryonic and fetal stages of tongue development with scanning electron microscopy. Time-bred CD-1 mice were sacrificed at quarter-day intervals on days 10-13, and at half-day intervals on days 13.5-16.5 of gestation. Fetal tongues were dissected and fixed in s-collidine buffered 4% glutaraldehyde at pH7.4, and subsequently processed for SEM viewing. Tongue development was initiated on the 11th day by the appearance of the tuberculum impar and the two lateral lingual swellings on arch I. This was followed by the elevation of the hypobranchial eminence, which unites arches III and IV in the ventral midline, and overgrows arch II anteriorly. During the 12th day, remodeling occurred in areas of arches II and III, forming the root of the tongue. A cone-shaped midline swelling, the epiglottis, appeared in the ventral midline of arches III and IV. By the 13th day, the general proportions of the tongue, occupied by the body, root, and epiglottis, were established. The single circumvallate papilla and fungiform papillae were initiated during the early part of the 13th day, followed on the 15th day by differentiation of filiform and foliate papillae and raised nodules of lingual tonsilar tissue. The SEM study documented the temporal and morphological sequence of events during mouse tongue development. The tuberculum impar persisted to the late fetal stages and may therefore contribute largely to the dorsum of the tongue anterior to the circumvallate papilla.     

Spacing patterns on tongue surface-gustatory papilla

The dorsal surface of the mammalian tongue is covered with four kinds of papillae, fungiform, circumvallate, foliate and filiform papillae. With the exception of the filiform papillae, these types of papillae contain taste buds and are known as the gustatory papillae. The gustatory papillae are distributed over the tongue surface in a distinct spatial pattern. The circumvallate and foliate papillae are positioned in the central and lateral regions respectively and the fungiform papillae are distributed on the anterior part of the tongue in a stereotyped array. The patterned distribution and developmental processes of the fungiform papillae indicate some similarity between the fungiform papillae and the other epithelial appendages, including the teeth, feathers and hair. This is because 1) prior to the morphological changes, the signaling molecules are expressed in the fungiform papillae forming area with a stereotyped pattern; 2) the morphogenesis of the fungiform papillae showed specific structures in early development, such as epithelial thickening and mesenchymal condensation and 3) the fungiform papillae develop through reciprocal interactions between the epithelium and mesenchymal tissue. These results led us to examine whether or not the early organogenesis of the fungiform papillae is a good model system for understanding both the spacing pattern and the epithelial-mesenchymal interaction during embryogenesis.     

Scanning-electron-microscopic study of the dorsal lingual surface of the squirrel monkey

The structure of the lingual papillae and the ultrastructure of the surface of the lingual dorsal epithelial cells of squirrel monkeys were observed by scanning electron microscopy. Filiform papillae were distributed over the entire dorsal surface of the tongue, except for the radix zone. Fungiform papillae were scattered among these filiform papillae. In the middle of the posterior end of the lingual body, a single vallate papilla was located. Higher magnification of the lingual dorsal epithelium revealed that prominent microridges and elevated intercellular borders occurred widely in the basofrontal area of the filiform papillae, interpapillar area and lingual radix zone. On the surface of the upper part of the filiform papillae, fine pits and hollows were observed. Indistinct microridges were distributed over the surface of the fungiform papillae.     

Study by transmission and scanning electron microscopy of the morphogenesis of three types of lingual papillae in the albino rat (Rattus rattus)

El‐Bakry, A.M. 2010. Study by transmission and scanning electron microscopy of the morphogenesis of three types of lingual papillae in the albino rat (Rattus rattus).—Acta Zoologica (Stockholm) 91 : 267–278 Tongues were removed from albino rat foetus on days 12 (E12) and 16 (E16) of gestation and from newborns (P0) and from juvenile rats on days 7 (P7), 14 (P14) and 21 (P21) postnatally for investigation by light, scanning, and transmission electron microscopy. Significant changes appeared during the morphogenesis of the papillae. At E12, two rows of rudiments of fungiform papillae were extended bilaterally on the anterior half of the tongue. At E16, the rudiments of fungiform papillae were regularly arranged in a lattice‐like pattern. A rudiment of circumvallate papillae could be recognized. No rudiment of filiform papillae was visible. No evidence of keratinization was recognizable. At P0, rudiments of filiform papillae were visible but had a more rounded appearance, with keratinization. The fungiform and circumvallate papillae were large and their outlines were somewhat irregular as that found in the adult rat. At P7, the filiform papillae were large and slender. The fungiform papillae became large and the shape of circumvallate papillae was almost similar to that observed in the adult. At P14 and P21, the shape and structure of the three types of papillae were irregular as those found in the adult. In conclusion, the rudiments of the fungiform and circumvallate papillae were visible earlier than those of the filiform papillae. The morphogenesis of filiform papillae advanced in a parallel manner with the keratinization of the lingual epithelium, in the period from just before birth to a few weeks after birth.     

Localization of type II collagen in the lingual mucosa of rats during the morphogenesis of circumvallate papillae

Iwasaki, S., Aoyagi, H. and Yoshizawa, H. 2011. Localization of type II collagen in the lingual mucosa of rats during the morphogenesis of circumvallate papillae. —Acta Zoologica (Stockholm) 92 : 67–74. Immunoreactivity specific for type II collagen was recognized first in the mesenchymal connective tissue just beneath the circumvallate papilla placode in fetuses on E13. At this stage, most of the lingual epithelium was pseudostratified epithelium composed of one or two layers of cuboidal cells. However, the epithelium of the circumvallate papilla placode was composed of several layers of cuboidal cells. Immunoreactivity specific for type II collagen was detected mainly on the lamina propria just beneath the lingual epithelium of the rudiment of the circumvallate papilla in fetuses on E15 and on E17, and slight immunostaining was detected on the lamina propria around the rudiment. In fetuses on E19, immunoreactivity specific for type II collagen was widely and densely distributed on the connective tissue around the developing circumvallate papillae and on the connective tissue that surrounded the lingual muscle. Immunoreactivity specific for type II collagen was sparsely distributed on the lamina propria of central bulge. After birth, morphogenesis of the circumvallate papillae advanced gradually with the increase in size of the tongue. Immunoreactivity specific for type II collagen was distinctively distributed in the lamina propria around circumvallate papilla, in the central bulge, and in the connective tissue that surrounded the lingual muscle.
