Selective peripheral expansion and activation of B cells expressing endogenous immunoglobulin in mu-transgenic mice.

abstract：:Many lymphocytes are produced in the intestinal mucosa, especially in the Peyer's patches. These newly formed lymphoid cells leave the gut wall, undergo further maturation and many reach the lamina propria of the intestinal mucosa where they function as effector and regulator cells of the intestinal immune response.
