Generation of mouse small intestinal epithelial cell lines that allow the analysis of specific innate immune functions.

Cell lines derived from the small intestine that reflect authentic properties of the originating intestinal epithelium are of high value for studies on mucosal immunology and host microbial homeostasis. A novel immortalization procedure was applied to generate continuously proliferating cell lines f...
