Peyer’s patches are organized lymphoid follicles located in the mucosa of the small intestine, primarily in the ileum. They play a crucial role in the immune response by monitoring intestinal bacteria and preventing the growth of pathogenic bacteria while allowing the absorption of nutrients. Peyer’s patches contain specialized M cells that transport antigens from the intestinal lumen to immune cells, facilitating the generation of immune responses. This helps maintain gut homeostasis and protect the body from infections.
