Pseudostratified columnar ciliated epithelium of the mucosa of a dog trachea.

This field shows, in addition to basal cells (B), two types of columnar epithelial cells, i.e., tall columnar ciliated cells (A) and goblet cells (*). The goblet cells show dark triangular nuclei (arrows) under a large pocket of cytoplasm containing mucigen granules, the precursors of mucus.
