Regional variations in Paneth cell antimicrobial peptide expression along the mouse intestinal tract

BACKGROUND: Enteric antimicrobial peptides secreted from Paneth cells, including α-defensins (in mice named cryptdins), are key effector molecules of innate immunity in the small intestine. The importance of Paneth cells α-defensins emerged from studies of enteric bacterial infection in genetically...
