Simple squamous epithelium can be studied by looking at cells which line blood and lymph vessels. These flattened cells are called endothelial cells . The nuclei are frequently found protruding into the lumen of the vessel. Observe the numerous large blood vessels present in the periphery of this section.
The epidermis is made up of stratified squamous epithelium and lacks blood vessels. 2. The layer of reproducing cells (the stratum basale), which lies at the base of the epidermis, is well-nourished by dermal blood vessels. 3. Cells are pushed outward as new cells are formed, and become keratinized as they die.
