Research Abstract |
Epidermal fatty acid binding protein (EFAP/FABP5) expression in M cell in C57BL/6 mice Peyer's patch drastically increased during intestinal flora conversion. Terminal web accumulation ofEFABP in M cell might be driven by EFABP-galectin4 complex synthesis. Both in vivo and in vitro study showed that aboveEFABP expression conversion andEFABP-galectin4 complex were associated with intestinal antigen transcytosis.
