superficial zone

BrdUrd labelling was confined to the superficial zone of human gastric crypts (Fig 1).

The retinal input encompasses the entire superficial zone, and is bilateral, although the contralateral portion is more extensive.

When first isolated, cartilage lubricin was called "superficial zone protein" (SZP).

It creates superficial zone of coagulation necrosis that remain compatible with underlying tissue& isolate pulp from vigorous effects of the sub-base.

There are also projections from the superficial zone to the pretectal nuclei, lateral geniculate nucleus of the thalamus, and the parabigeminal nucleus.

The outer more superficial zone is highly infected with proteolytic degradation of the collagen matrix and as a result the dentine is irreversibly demineralised.

The outer, cell-poor layer, is often subdivided into a superficial zone (Layer Ia, which contains the output axons from the olfactory bulb) and a deeper area (Layer Ib).
