2024年4月16日 · Vallate papillae are the largest of all lingual papillae. There are very few of them, precisely 8 - 12 in humans. They lie in a V-shaped row immediately anterior to the terminal sulcus, which divides the dorsum of the tongue into its anterior two-thirds and a posterior third.

Lingual papillae (sg.: papilla) are small structures on the upper surface of the tongue that give it its characteristic rough texture. The four types of papillae on the human tongue have different structures and are accordingly classified as circumvallate (or …

2025年1月27日 · 3. Circumvallate (Vallate) Papillae. Shape: Large, dome-shaped structures surrounded by a circular trench. Size: Largest but least numerous (8–12 in number). Location: Arranged in a V-shaped row at the back of the tongue, just anterior to the sulcus terminalis. Epithelium: Non-keratinized with deeply embedded taste buds.

Vallate papillae are round structures located at the back of the tongue, forming a V-shaped line. They range in size from 2 to 8 mm in diameter and contain taste buds. These papillae receive a large number of nerve fibers compared to other types of papillae, and the number of vallate papillae varies between 4 and 18 per human tongue.

2023年8月21日 · Vallate papillae, also known as circumvallate papillae, are arranged in a V-shape anterior to the sulcus terminalis and studded with numerous taste buds. The innervation of these papillae is by the glossopharyngeal nerve (CN IX).

The vallate papillae are the largest papillae of the tongue, 8 to 12 in number, arranged in the form of a V anterior to the sulcus terminalis of the tongue (Dorland, 2011).

Immunohistochemical staining and immunofluorescence techniques were used to detect markers associated with the uterine cervical TZ in the vallate papillae, and these results were compared with those in uterine cervical tissue. Additionally, tongue samples from mouse papillomavirus (MmuPV1)-infected mice were analysed to test our hypothesis.
