The Effect of an Elemental Diet on Gut-Associated Lymphoid Tissue (Galt) in Rats

  • Chapter
Advances in Mucosal Immunology

Part of the book series: Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology ((AEMB,volume 371))

Abstract

Intestinal gut-associated lymphoid tissue (GALT) IS constantly exposed to various antigenic stimuli in the gut lumen. Various dietary substances are known to have a great influence on the intestinal lymphatic system which plays an important role in intestinal mucosal immunity.
