<b>A comparative histological and histochemical features of esophagus at weaning and mature local breed cats (<i>Felis catus</i>)</b>
The current study concluded that the cat esophagus was not a glandular part of the gastrointestinal tract compared with other mammals, which makes this species a reliable experimental model of digestive tissue, and explained the role of the pharyngeal or oral part of the digestive system in the lubrication of the upper digestive tract.
