Description:
Thirty minutes after inoculation of reovirus type 1 into the intestinal lumen of the mouse, viruses were found adhering to the surface of intestinal M cells but not other epithelial cells. Within 1 hour, viruses were seen in the M cell cytoplasm and were associated with mononuclear cells in the intercellular space adjacent to the M cell. These findings suggest that M cells are the site where reovirus penetrates the intestinal epithelium.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Wolf, J L -- Rubin, D H -- Finberg, R -- Kauffman, R S -- Sharpe, A H -- Trier, J S -- Fields, B N -- AI 13178/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- AM 07121/AM/NIADDK NIH HHS/ -- AM 17537/AM/NIADDK NIH HHS/ -- etc. -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1981 Apr 24;212(4493):471-2.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6259737" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
