Pathological epithelial cell apoptosis and shedding in the murine small intestine

2013-01-01

Abstract excerpt

The intestinal epithelium represents a critical component of the gut barrier and is composed of a single layer of intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) held together by tight junctions. This epithelium prevents the entrance of harmful microorganisms, antigens and toxins from the gut lumen into the circulation.
