The 'M' (microfold) cell, a previously unrecognized human intestinal mucosal cell type, is described from studies by light microscopy, transmission electro...
Numerous bacterial strains produce surface lectins, commonly in the form of fimbriae that are filamentous assemblies of protein subunits. Among the best ch...
M cells in Peyer's patch epithelium conduct transepithelial transport of luminal antigens to cells of the mucosal immune system. To determine the distribut...
How do cells of the immune system encounter the majority of antigens that enter the body through the gut and airways? The epithelia lining these systems contain a remarkable cell type, the M cell, that delivers antigens across the epithe...

It is generally believed that M cells do not modify the antigens they transport from the intestinal lumen to underlying immunocompetent cells because it ha...
The dome epithelium (DE) covering bronchus- and gut-associated lymphoid tissues (BALT and GALT) is composed of columnar cells, groups of lymphocytes, M cel...
The derivation of membranous epithelial (M) cells, which are specialized antigen sampling cells overlying the lymphoid follicles of Peyer's patches, is unk...
Peptides and proteins remain poorly bioavailable upon oral administration. One of the most promising strategies to improve their oral delivery relies on th...
M cells are distinctive epithelial cells that occur only in the follicle-associated epithelia that overlie organized mucosa-associated lymphoid tissues. Th...
