  2. Goblet cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goblet_cell

    Goblet cells are simple columnar epithelial cells, having a height of four times that of their width. The cytoplasm of goblet cells tends to be displaced toward the basal end of the cell body by the large mucin granules, which accumulate near the apical surface of the cell along the Golgi apparatus, which lies between the granules and the nucleus.

  4. Immune tolerance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immune_tolerance

    Goblet cell-associated antigen passages (GAP) transfer low molecular weight soluble antigens to CD103+ dendritic cells. CD103+ dendritic cells are associated with tolerance induction. [30] CX3CR1+ macrophages extend in between enterocytes and directly take up antigens form the intestinal lumen. These macrophages are not capable of traveling to ...

  5. Respiratory epithelium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Respiratory_epithelium

    The cells in the respiratory epithelium are of five main types: a) ciliated cells, b) goblet cells, c) brush cells, d) airway basal cells, and e) small granule cells (NDES) [6] Goblet cells become increasingly fewer further down the respiratory tree until they are absent in the terminal bronchioles; club cells take over their role to some extent here. [7]

  7. Intestinal gland - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intestinal_gland

    During each mitosis, one of the two daughter cells remains in the crypt as a stem cell, while the other differentiates and migrates up the side of the crypt and eventually into the villus. These stem cells can differentiate into either an absorptive ( enterocytes ) or secretory ( Goblet cells , Paneth cells , enteroendocrine cells ) lineages. [ 3 ]

  8. Antigen processing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antigen_processing

    The discussion that follows now concerns alpha/beta T cells. The TCR (of αβ T-cells) binds a bimolecular complex displayed at the surface of some other cells called an antigen-presenting cell (APC). This complex consists of: a fragment of an antigen lying within the groove of a histocompatibility molecule. The complex has been compared to a ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mucin_short_variant_S1

    Mucin short variant S1, also called polymorphic epithelial mucin (PEM) or epithelial membrane antigen (EMA), is a mucin encoded by the MUC1 gene in humans. [3] Mucin short variant S1 is a glycoprotein with extensive O-linked glycosylation of its extracellular domain.
