Core Messages
• Electron microscopy is a very important tool for evaluating the ultrastructural features of the nose and helping diagnose diseases related to nasal structures.
• Biopsies should be small (less than 2mm) and xed in seconds to prevent autolysis and to obtain optimum diffusion of the xatives.
• Cilia are hairlike extensions of the apical plasma membrane containing microtubules. The basal body is a microtubule-organizing center located in the apical region of the cili­ated cell. The existence of the characteristic “9+2” organization of the axonemes of the cilia and the presence of the basal bodies are important for the normal function of the cilia.
• The goblet cell is common in the airway epi­thelium. The parasympathetic nervous system does not control release from goblet cells. Rather, these cells respond to physical and chemical irritants; however, mediators have not yet been clearly identied.
• Basal cells are stem cells from which other cell types arise. They lie on the basement membrane and do not reach the lumen.
• The olfactory segment is the region at the roof of the nasal cavity. In humans, the olfactory region

is a small area formed by a modied pseudostrat­ied epithelium. The olfactory epithelium is composed of olfactory receptor cells, supporting or sustentacular cells, basal cells, and brush cells. In contrast with the other regions of the nasal cav­ity, there are no goblet cells in this area.
32.1 Electron Microscopy andtheNose
32.1.1 The Electron Microscope
The electron microscope is a type of microscope that uses an electron beam accelerated under high vacuum instead of light source to create an image of the specimen. In studying the microscopic anatomy of the nose, it is essential to understand the requirements and capabilities of the electron microscope and which tissues and cells should be clearly observed by electron microscopy.
The electron microscope uses an accelerated electron beam, emitted by a cathode and con­trolled by a series of electrostatic and electro­magnetic lenses [1, 2]. Components of the electron microscope are (Fig.32.1):
1. Electron optical column.
2. Electron gun that consists of an electron
source to produce electrons, such as a tung­sten lament.
3. Magnetic lenses to demagnify the beam.

7. Digital imaging systems that produce an image from the signal.
There are also vacuum systems consisting of vac­uum pumps and a vacuum chamber.
There are two basic types of electron micros­copy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM).
TEM uses an electron beam that transmits through ultrathin (60–90 nm) sections that are glutaraldehyde-xed and usually double-stained. TEM produces two-dimensional images on a uo- rescent screen, photographic lm, or CCD (charge-
column, 2 electron gun, 3 magnetic lenses, 4 magnetic coil, 5 apertures, 6 detector, and 7 digital imaging systems
coupled device) camera. TEM can detect structures by the transmission of the electron beam and dis­criminate details of 0.2nm. However, the quality of the obtained image mainly depends on the prep­aration of the biological sample [1].
SEM obtains topographic, three-dimensional images with a resolution of about 2nm. The lens system of SEM produces a small focused spot of electrons that are then scanned over the specimen surface by a deection coil. SEM is able to pro­duce an image by detecting secondary electrons and backscattered electrons generated from the specimen. A secondary electron detector in the SEM builds the image by mapping the signals of a nely focused electron beam that is scanned on the sample surface [1, 3, 4].
Both TEM and SEM can provide only black­and- white images. Although the original image is monochrome, micrographs can be colored

digitally to emphasize details. In recent years, digital imaging systems provide incredible opportunities to obtain high-quality electron micrographs.
Biological materials usually require process­ing before being viewed by electron microscopy [1, 3]. The tissue preparation technique varies depending on the type of microscope and the type of specimen. Low-vacuum SEMs and the envi­ronmental scanning electron microscope (ESEM) overcome both these limitations [5].
The stages for tissue preparation for TEM are as follows
(a) Fixation: can be achieved by perfusion and
microinjection or immersion using various xatives including aldehydes.
(b) Post xation: performed in OsO
4.
(c) Dehydration: done with a graded series of
alcohol.
(d) Epoxy resin block preparation: treat with
propylene and embed in epoxy resin.
(e) Semi-thin sectioning: one- to two-
micrometer- thick semi-thin sections obtained from the epoxy resin blocks should be stained with methylene blue or azure for light microscopy.
(f) Ultrathin sectioning: ultramicrotome, an
instrument for cutting extremely thin sec­tions, is used for ultrathin sectioning of tis­sue. Ultrathin sections are obtained from selected areas and then double-stained with uranyl acetate/lead citrate.
During SEM sample preparation, after the xa­tion step, the specimens must be dried. Electron microscopists prefer to use Critical Point Drying. By removing carbon dioxide after the transition from the liquid to the gas phase at the critical point, the specimen can be dried without structural dam­age. Specimens must be mounted onto a holder that can be inserted into the scanning electron microscope. The last step prior to sample imaging is coating the samples. The objective of this coat­ing is to increase its conductivity in the scanning electron microscope and to prevent the buildup of high-voltage charges on the specimen. Typically, specimens are coated with a thin layer of gold, gold-palladium, or platinum [3].
In addition to visual inspection, a grading sys­tem can be used to quantitatively evaluate the samples to compare different experimental con­ditions. The data can then be analyzed statisti­cally to make further evaluations. This grading system was established based on similar princi­ples of methods used for evaluating different tis­sue samples [610].
It is important to pay close attention during the sample preparation to get small-sized (less than 2mm) biopsy materials and to x them in seconds to prevent autolysis and obtain optimum diffusion of the xatives [3].
32.1.2 Microscopic Anatomy
oftheNose
The nose humidies, lters, and warms the air we breathe as well as provides the sense of olfaction. The nose is considered to have two parts: the external nose and the nasal cavity.
The external nose consists of the skin and a framework of compact bone and hyaline cartilage that forms a projection covered by skin. Electron microscopic observation of this part does not show any regional specications. The skin con­sists of two main layers. The outer layer is the epidermis, which is composed of a keratinized and stratied squamous epithelium (Figs. 32.2 and 32.3) (see Sect. 32.1.2.1). The inner layer is the dermis, which is dense connective tissue including epithelial derivatives of the skin such as hair follicles and sweat and sebaceous glands [11]. The supporting framework is composed of nasal bones, the frontal process of the maxillae, and the nasal part of the frontal bone and septum, as well as major and minor alar cartilages. Bone is also a connective tissue characterized by a min­eralized extracellular matrix containing mainly type I collagen along with other non-collagenous matrix proteins [1]. Bones of the external nose consist of layers of relatively thick compact bone with a layer of spongy bone covered by perios­teum, which is a sheath of dense brous connec­tive tissue containing osteoprogenitor cells.
The type of cartilage that contributes to the framework of the nose is hyaline cartilage

The chondrocytes are either rounded or ellip­soidal (Figs.32.4 and 32.5). The plasma mem­brane is folded into a moderate number of microvilli. Numerous cytoplasmic laments and coarse granules of glycogen are prominently present in the cytoplasm. The Golgi complex is

There are a few lipid droplets in the cytoplasm. The nuclei are ovoid and usually con­tain a single large nucleolus (Fig. 32.5). Mitochondria are small and not very numerous.

The matrix is composed mostly of collagen brils and matrix granules. Frequently, granules appear to be linked together by extremely ne intergran­ular brils, usually less than 50Å thick, which connect the projections of adjacent granules. Infrequently, clusters of membrane-bounded matrix vesicles are observed between collagen brils of the matrix [12].

The perichondrium, a rmly attached dense connective tissue composed of broblast-like cells, surrounds the hyaline cartilage (Fig.32.4).
The nasal cavity is divided into paired cham­bers separated by a bony and cartilaginous sep­tum. Each chamber is divided into three regions:
(a) Vestibule of the nasal cavity. (b) Respiratory region. (c) Olfactory region.
32.1.2.1 Vestibule oftheNasal Cavity
The nasal cavity extends from the nares anteriorly to the choanae posteriorly. Just behind the nares, the nasal cavity widens and forms the vestibule [13]. It is lined with keratinized stratied squamous epithelium and the dermis (Fig.32.6) that contains connective tissue elements, many hair follicles (hairs in this region are called vibrissae) (Figs.32.7 and 32.8), and sebaceous glands and sweat glands (Figs.32.9 and 32.10) (see Sect. 32.1.2).
The stratied squamous epithelium consists of several layers of cells. The attened cells form its outer layer and the deepest cells are columnar. The epidermis is composed of four distinct lay­ers. These are the stratum corneum, stratum spi­nosum, stratum granulosum, and stratum basale

(stratum germinativum) (Fig.32.6). The cells of the stratum corneum are anucleate corneal cells (squamous), called corneocytes or cornied cells. The corneocytes are attened cells that lack nuclei and cytoplasmic organelles. The cells con­tain aggregated keratin laments. The upper spi­nous layer and granular cell layer also contain smaller lamellate granules called lamellar, membrane- coating granules (MCGs or Odland bodies). These are numerous within the upper spinous layer. They play an important role in pro­viding the barrier and intercellular cohesion functions of the stratum corneum. They release their lipid components into the intercellular space. The basal and spinous cells together are called the Malpighian layer, which includes cells such as melanocytes, Langerhans cells, and Merkel cells. When outer cells become damaged, cell division occurs within the basal layer. The
cells move outwards to the stratum corneum, passing through the stratum spinosum. The char­acteristics of these cells then transdifferentiate to become the cells of the stratum corneum. There are biochemical and signaling interactions between the epithelial cells, including desmo­somes, adherens junctions, gap junctions, and tight junctions [14].
Posteriorly, where the vestibule ends, the stratied squamous epithelium becomes thinner and undergoes a transition to the pseudostratied epithelium that characterizes the respiratory region. At this site the sebaceous glands end [15]. At the level of the limen nasi, the lining of the nasal cavity gradually changes from squamous epithelium to non-ciliated cuboidal or columnar epithelium. At the level of the inferior turbinate, the epithelium continues as pseudostratied cili- ated columnar epithelium [16].

32.1.2.2 Respiratory Region oftheNasal Cavity
The mucosa of the respiratory region warms, moistens, and lters inspired air. The lamina pro­pria of the respiratory region has a rich, vascular network that includes a complex set of capillary loops. The nasal mucosa microvasculature is composed of arterioles, venules, capillaries, and cavernous sinuses. Both arterioles and venules run parallel to the long axis of the nasal concha. The capillaries and cavernous sinuses are particu­larly abundant and interconnect with numerous short anastomoses to form a rich dense network [17]. The arrangement of the vessels allows the inhaled air to be warmed by blood ow through the part of the capillaries closest to the surface. These capillaries provide a mechanical heat exchange system. Submucosal capillaries and venules have fenestrated endothelial linings and relatively porous basement membranes, facilitat­ing the transit of uid and white blood cells to the mucosal surface. The lamina propria then becomes distended with uid, resulting in a marked swelling of the mucous membrane and consequent obstruction of the air passage. This makes breathing difcult. The mucosa contains large venous-like spaces known as swell bodies, which may become congested during allergic reactions or infections. The morphological view of fenestrated endothelia might change in response to alterations in the physiological con­ditions. It is essential to dene the different shapes and courses of the muscle cells responsi­ble for constriction and dilatation of nasal swell bodies for proper clinical diagnoses [18].
The nasal vasculature is controlled by dense innervations. Myelinated nerve bundles and small axons are found in the arterial wall located in the adventitia. Veins also have nerve structures, but they are fewer and are found in the muscle layer. Therefore, no axons are present in capillar­ies. The differences in the density of axons indi­cate that these vessels are controlled by neural structures and play an important role in the swell­ing of the nasal mucosa [19].
Seromucous glands are one of the main com­ponents of the human nasal mucosa. Their secre­tion contributes to the moistening function of the
goblet cells in the respiratory epithelium. The terminal segments of the glands are surrounded by contractile myoepithelial cells in a basketlike fashion. These cells, in particular, show a high number of mitochondria [20]. This innervation pattern is important in understanding the control of different physiological glandular functions. Unmyelinated nerve bers have typical neuronal components such as neurolaments, neurotu­bules, and mitochondria in their cytoplasm [21].
Inhaled agents contact the nasal mucosa and cause a local immune response. Because of the nature of these local immune responses, nasal mucosal antibody production is best achieved via direct stimulation of IgA-committed, nasal­associated lymphoid tissue-derived B cells [22].
The respiratory region constitutes most of the volume of the nasal cavities. The medial wall of the respiratory region, the nasal septum, is smooth, but the lateral walls contain three shelf­like, bony projections called turbinates or con­chae. The turbinates increase surface area to more efciently warm inspired air. This air is also ltered by the mucus-covered walls of the nasal cavity. Particles trapped in this layer of mucus are transported to the pharynx by means of coordi­nated sweeping movements of cilia and are sub­sequently swallowed. Therefore, these motile cilia play a critical role in mucociliary clearance. This segment is lined by a ciliated, pseudostrati­ed columnar epithelium. The pseudostratied respiratory epithelium actually consists of one layer of cells, but their nuclei frequently lie at dif­ferent levels, and some cells do not reach the epi­thelial surface. Hence, the epithelium looks stratied even if all the cells rest on a basement membrane located between the epithelial cells and the loose lamina propria. Basal cells, situated close to the basement membrane, replace the cili­ated cells or the goblet cells when needed [1, 23]. The lamina propria is attached to the periosteum of the adjacent bone. The submucosa contains blood vessels, venous plexus, glandular elements, sensory nerves, and immune system cells.
The ciliated, pseudostratied columnar epi­thelium of the respiratory region is composed of ve cell types: ciliated columnar cells, non­ciliated columnar cells, goblet cells, basal cells,
