S100A4 Protein Is Essential for the Development of Mature Microfold Cells in Peyer’s Patches
Summary: Intestinal microfold cells (M cells) in Peyer’s patches are a special subset of epithelial cells that initiate mucosal immune responses through uptake of luminal antigens. Although the cytokine receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL) expressed on mesenchymal cells triggers di...
