The influence of mast cells on pathways of transepithelial antigen transport in rat intestine.

Abstract

Luminal Ag challenge of intestinal segments from sensitized rats results in a rapid (approximately 3 min) secretory response. We previously showed in horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-sensitized rats that the initial phase of transepithelial Ag transport occurred via a transcellular route and was enhanced by sensitization. However, following the hypersensitivity reaction, Ag also crossed between epithelial cells. The aim of this study was to …
