A histologic illustration of circumvallate papillae (CVP) on the dorsal posterior tongue. The section depicts stratified squamous epithelium forming a surrounding trench, with numerous taste buds embedded along the lateral walls of the papilla. In the lamina propria/submucosa, serous von Ebner glands drain by ducts into the moat to cleanse taste pores and solubilize tastants. This specialized mucosal structure belongs to the oral cavity within the digestive system and is studied in anatomy and histology, enabling gustatory transduction and salivary secretion.
