    12.37   Intestine Version française
Intestinal mucosa of a rat.

This field shows several intestinal villi cut longitudinally and the upper part of the crypts or glands (G) below.

The villi are formed of a core of lamina propria (*) covered by a simple columnar epithelium composed of fully differentiated enterocytes and goblet cells.

These cells produced in the crypts migrate along the wall of the villi up to their tips (arrows) where they are extruded into the lumen of the intestine.
