Case Report: Intestinal Nodular Lymphoid Hyperplasia as First Manifestation of Activated PI3K Syndrome Due to a Novel. ILCs are prevalent at mucosal surfaces, playing a key role in mucosal immunity and homeostasis due to their ability of rapid secretion of immunoregulatory cytokines and thus communicating with other immune cells.[27]. Long, Y. et al. The body then prepares a full body-wide immune response to the pathogen before it is able to spread beyond the intestines. Peyer's patches are small masses of lymphatic tissue found throughout the ileum region of the small intestine.Also known as aggregated lymphoid nodules, they form an important part of the immune system by monitoring intestinal bacteria populations and preventing the growth of pathogenic bacteria in the intestines.

The small intestine is composed of three distinct parts, the last one being the ileum.At the distal end, the ileum is separated from the large intestine, into which it opens, by the ileocecal valve.The ileum itself is very rich in lymphoid follicles and is attached to the abdominal wall by the mesentery.Its vascular supply is provided by the ileal arteries and its innervation via the coeliac .

High abundance of plasma cells secreting transglutaminase 2-specific IgA autoantibodies with limited somatic hypermutation in celiac disease intestinal lesions. Hepatol. Bergqvist, P. et al. ISSN 1759-5053 (online) 2.) Peyer's patches are groupings of lymphoid follicles in the mucus membrane that lines your small intestine. It was not until 1850 that the Swiss physician Rudolph Oskar Ziegler (18281881) suggested, after careful microscopic examination, that Peyer's patches were actually lymph glands. & Isaacson, P. G. The human gut contains a novel population of B lymphocytes which resemble marginal zone cells. Its a malformation in the lymphatic system. Mei, H. E. et al. [18] Typical process of an oral tolerance towards ingested food antigens can be described as continuous luminal sampling of antigens by DCs and their subsequent migration followed by priming of nave T cells in mesenteric lymph nodes to become immunosuppressive T cells (Treg). Then the receptor is proteolyticaly cleaved and the dimer of IgA is released with a portion of the receptor called the secretory component. Terminal ileitis is the inflammation of the terminal end of the ileum, which is the last section of the small intestine before it leads into the large intestine. 10, 534 (2019). In the distal ileum, they are numerous and they form a lymphoid ring. Activated lymphocytes pass into the blood stream via the thoracic duct and travel to the gut where they carry out their final effector functions. Hepatol. In health, the response is intricately balanced to provide active protection against pathogen invasion whilst tolerating food and avoiding inflammation. Med. Eur.

Such a walking on the edge of a knife is ensured by diverse types of immune cells: Plasma B cells residing at lamina propria produce high levels of specific secretory IgA antibodies.

[18] There are two main ways of IgA production 1) T-cell dependent resulting in sIgAs with high affinity and specificity and 2) T-cell independent generation of sIgA, which utilizes dendritic cells and their production of BAFF and APRIL cytokines.

Dey, A. et al. J. Gastroenterol. Immunity 31, 401411 (2009). This inflammation affects the health of the gastrointestinal (GI) system, which, in turn, may show up as GI symptoms, such as abdominal pain and cramping or diarrhea. Roco, J. 214, 309317 (2017). Also known as aggregated lymphoid nodules, they form an important part of the immune system by monitoring intestinal bacteria populations and preventing the growth of pathogenic bacteria in the intestines.

The microbiota shapes many aspects of gut B cell responses, from determining the specificity of IgA responses to driving the functionality of regulatory B cells.
