Abstract

The tongue is a mobile organ consisting of apex, corpus and radix parts with a distinctive mucosa in the digestive system. In the case of digestion; it should not be forgotten that the macroscopic structure of all digestive organs, especially the tongue mucosa, is of great importance. Norduz sheep is known as a variety of Akkaraman sheep bred in the Norduz region located within the borders of the Gurpinar district of Van province. In addition, the fact that the Norduz sheep are only raised in the Norduz region and exhibit unique yield performance makes this breed different from other breeds. For this reason, in our study, it was aimed to examine the tongue papillae of Norduz sheep, which is a different breed, by a scanning electron microscope. In our study, the tongue tissues of 10 Norduz sheep were used. In scanning electron microscopy papillae filiformes; was observed as spiny in the region from the apex of the tongue to the torus linguae. The ends of papillae conicae were typically cone-shaped. Papillae lentiformes were found to be the clearest and most voluminous mechanical tongue papillaes on the torus linguae. Papillae fungiformes wich is a taste papillae were found to be mushroom-like and scattered among papillae filiformes. Papillae vallatae were composed of mucosal valium, parietal trench, and annular pad located on either side of the radix linguae. As a result, in Norduz sheep; many similarities and differences in terms of tongue papillae between species and races were determined.

Norduz Koyununda Dil Papillalarının Morfolojik Olarak İncelenmesi: Bir Taramalı Elektron Mikroskop Çalışması

Abstract

Dil sindirim sitemi içerisinde kendine özgü bir mukozaya sahip apex, corpus ve radix kısımlarından meydana gelen hareketli bir organdır. Sindirim olayında; dil mukozası başta olmak üzere tüm sindirim organlarının makroskobik yapısının büyük bir öneme sahip olduğu unutulmamalıdır. Norduz koyunu: Van ili Gürpınar ilçesi sınırları içerisinde yer alan Norduz bölgesinde yetiştirilen Akkaraman koyununun bir varyetesi olarak bilinmektedir. Ayrıca Norduz koyununun yalnızca Norduz bölgesinde yetişmesi ve kendine özgü verim performansı sergilemesi, bu ırkı diğer ırklardan farklı kılmaktadır. Bu sebeple çalışmamızda farklı bir ırk olan Norduz koyununda dil papillalarının taramalı elektron mikroskop ile incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Yaptığımız çalışmada 10 adet Norduz koyununun dil dokusu kullanılmıştır. Taramalı elektron mikroskop incelemesinde papillae filiformes; dilin apexinden torus linguae’ye kadar olan bölgede dikensi şekilde gözlemlendi. Papillae conicae; uçları sivri tipik koni şeklindeydi. Papillae lentiformes; torus linguae’nin üzerinde en net ve hacimli görülen mekanik dil papailları olarak tespit edildi. Tat papillalarından papillae fungiformes; mantara benzer şekilde ve papillae filiformes arasında dağınık halde gözlemlendi. Papillae vallatae radix linguaenin her iki yanında konumlanmış mukozal valium, parietal hendek ve halkasal ped’ten meydan gelmişti. Sonuç olarak Norduz koyununun; türler ve ırklar arsında dil papillaları yönünden birçok benzerlikler ve farklılıklar gösterdiği tespit edilmiştir.
