Peyer’s patch
|
Detailed explanation-1: -Peyer’s patches Their main function is the production of immunoglobulin A (IgA) along with other types of immunoglobulins. The epithelial cells covering areas of Peyer’s patches can be identified as ‘M’ cells with micropinocytic properties, allowing the cells to sample antigens.
Detailed explanation-2: -Antigens from microbes in the gut are absorbed via endocytosis by microfold cells lining the surface of each Peyer’s patch. These antigens are passed on to the lymphoid tissue, where they are absorbed by macrophages and presented to T lymphocytes and B lymphocytes.
Detailed explanation-3: -Peyer’s patches are groupings of lymphoid follicles in the mucus membrane that lines your small intestine. Lymphoid follicles are small organs in your lymphatic system that are similar to lymph nodes.
