Descriptor estría vascular
Scope note: Capa de EPITELIO estratificado que forma el borde endolinfático del conducto coclear en la pared lateral de la cóclea. La estría vascular contiene principalmente células de tres tipos (marginales, intermedias y basales) y capilares. Las células marginales están situadas directamente frente a la ENDOLINFA y son importantes en la producción de gradientes iónicos y potencial endococlear.

Scope note: A layer of stratified EPITHELIUM forming the endolymphatic border of the cochlear duct at the lateral wall of the cochlea. Stria vascularis contains primarily three cell types (marginal, intermediate, and basal), and capillaries. The marginal cells directly facing the ENDOLYMPH are important in producing ion gradients and endochoclear potential.
