Saw, Po Po Morphology of Gut-Associated and Bronchus-Associated Lymphoid Tissues of Calves in Relation to Age |
| description |
The macroscopic, light and scanning and transmission electron microscopic structure
of gut-associated lymphoid tissue (GALT) of small and large intestines and
bronchus-associated lymphoid tissue (BALT) were studied in the 3, 6 and 8 monthold
calves. Results showed that two different types of Peyer’s patches (discrete and
continuous) were present in the small intestine. Discrete Peyer’s patches (dPP) were
located in the duodenum and jejunum and continuous Peyer’s patches (cPP) were
located in the ileum. The number, size, shape and distribution of Peyer’s patches
(PP) in small intestine varied between individuals of the same group and between age
groups. There were significantly more (p<0.05) dPP found in the jejunum part
compared to that of duodenum. The number of dPP increased significantly (p< 0.05)
from 3 to 6 month but this number of dPP significantly (p< 0.05) declined after 6
month of age. However, the size and distance between dPP were not significantly (p>
0.05) differences between 6 and 8 month-old calves. The cPP of the ileum was found
to be raised above the level of mucosa in the 6 month-old calves. Its size decreased
significantly (p< 0.05) after 6 month.Under light microscope revealed the presence of elongated follicles with very small
interfollicular areas (IFAs) in ileal PP (cPP) and small pear shape follicles with large
IFAs were found in the duodenal and jejunal PP (dPP). Based on the morphometric
analysis, the number of jejunal lymphoid follicles and size of ileal lymphoid follicles
of the 6 month-old calves were significantly higher (p<0.05) than those of 3 and 8
month-old calves. The width of IFAs of PP of small intestine increased with age. The
number and size of dome of PP in small intestine of 6 month-old calves were
significantly higher (p<0.05) than those of 3 and 8 month-old calves. Two types of
follicle-associated epithelium (FAE), FAE of villi and FAE of crypts were found in
this study. The intrafollicular invaginations of dome epithelium of duodenal PP
(dPP) were found in all ages.
Three morphological changes in the involuted Peyer`s patches were found in the
ileum of the 8 month-old calves. The changes were: 1) the dome epithelium invaded
into the follicle and formed intrafollicular surface epithelium, 2) depletion of follicle
with replacement by the connective tissue and formation of acellular cavity in the
follicles and 3) the domes became atrophied and all villi were thickened and
shrunken. M cells in FAE of dPP were randomly distributed and the morphological
structures of M cells in FAE of cPP were found to be same characteristic.
SEM findings revealed that the apical surface of M cells of dPP had irregular, sparse
microvilli and some M cells were completely encroached up by adjacent absorptive
cells. In cPP, the luminal surface of some M cells had few or lack microvilli and
various sizes of vacuoles containing particles or lymphocytes on their surface.Under the transmission electron microscope, mature and immature M cells were
observed to be present in FAE of dPP and cPP of all age of studied. Mature M cells
of dPP were tall columnar shape cells with less electron dense cytoplasm containing
mitochondria with closely packed cristae and lymphocytes include into the
cytoplasmic pocket. An irregular shaped nucleus was located toward the base of the
cell and vesicles were presence at the base of microvilli. Multivesicular electrondense
bodies were found in the cytoplasm of mature M cell of cPP. Immature M cells
containing many mitochondria in the cytoplasm were found in lower dome
epithelium. There are cytoplasmic protrusions on the luminal surface of M cells with
interdigitating cell membrane at the periphery. In cPP, luminal surface of immature
M cells had small microvilli and vacuole, mitochondria; rounded nucleus located at
the apical part of the cell.
The number and width of Peyer`s patches of large intestine varied with regions and
ages. But it was not found that significantly difference (p< 0.05) between different
ages. Under light microscope, the number and size of the lymphoid follicles of LGC
and lymphoid nodules varied with location and age. The age related increase changes
in number and size of lymphoid follicles were found in the colonic PP. The width of
IFAs I the rectal and colonic PP gradually increased with increasing age. The number
and size of dome of rectal PP were significantly less (p<0.05) than those of other
parts of the large intestine in all age groups. The biggest domes were found in the 6
month-old calves. Under the scanning electron microscope, the star-like structures of
intestinal mucosa correspond with the lamina propria nodule and the LGCs related to
the pit openings of intestinal mucosa. Under transmission electron microscope, the
pseudopodia-like cytoplasmic protrusion were observed in the luminal surface of M |

Results showed that two different types of Peyer’s patches (discrete and continuous) were present in the small intestine. Discrete Peyer’s patches (dPP) were located in the duodenum and jejunum and continuous Peyer’s patches (cPP) were located in the ileum. The number, size, shape and distribution of Peyer’s patches (PP) in small intestine varied between individuals of the same group and between age groups. There were significantly more (p<0.05) dPP found in the jejunum part compared to that of duodenum. The number of dPP increased significantly (p< 0.05) from 3 to 6 month but this number of dPP significantly (p< 0.05) declined after 6 month of age. However, the size and distance between dPP were not significantly (p> 0.05) differences between 6 and 8 month-old calves. The cPP of the ileum was found to be raised above the level of mucosa in the 6 month-old calves. Its size decreased significantly (p< 0.05) after 6 month.Under light microscope revealed the presence of elongated follicles with very small interfollicular areas (IFAs) in ileal PP (cPP) and small pear shape follicles with large IFAs were found in the duodenal and jejunal PP (dPP).
