  • Title: The transitional zone in the epithelium lining the mouse epiglottis.
    Author: Nakano T, Muto H.
    Journal: Acta Anat (Basel); 1987; 130(4):285-90. PubMed ID: 3434180.
    Abstract:
    The epithelium lining the caudal surface of the mouse epiglottis occupies the transitional zone between the keratinized stratified squamous epithelium, continuing from the oral cavity, and the ciliated columnar epithelium, extending into the laryngeal cavity. The epithelium showed gradations ranging from stratified squamous through stratified cuboidal to ciliated stratified low-columnar type. It is suggested that the epithelium is identical with the 'intermediate epithelium' in the mouse nasopharynx.
