Abstract

The distribution of bursin in sacculus rotundus and gut-associated lymphoid tissues was investigated in rabbit by immuno-histochemical staining method with anti-bursin monoclonal antibody (McAb)2F9-4. The results indicated that the appearance of the bursin-containing cells coincided with the morphodifferentiation and growth process in rabbit. Bursin immunized cells not only distributed in dome epithelium and mucosal epithelium, but also in follicular germinal center, dome, T-cell area, goblet cell, inter-epithelial lymphocyte and cap-zone of sacculus rotundus. This founding suggested that bursin-containing cells in sacculus rotundus might play an important role in intestinal mucosal immunity.
