Paneth cells are one of the four principal cells that represent the epithelium of the small intestines. Paneth cells are attached to stem cells and may play an important role in protecting them.

Do plant cells specialize in the same way animal cells do?
Plant cells do specialize but not in the same way as animal cells. Animal cells have specialized cells such as nerve cells, reproductive cells or muscle cells etc. Plant cells do not have any of those. But Plant cells have other specialized cells such as photosynthesis cells, epidermal cells etc. Both Animal and Plant cells have specialized cells that perform a specific function to keep the cell/organism alive.
Are fingers made of diploid cells or haploid cells?
Fingers are made of diploid cells. Haploid cells are the reproductive cells.
Where is the human body does meiosis occur?
in cells. cells undergo meiosis to make sex cells. one cell splits into two cells, ad then the two cells split into two more cells.
A pig has 38 chromosomes in each of its body cells how many chromosomes will be in each of the egg cells released by a female pig?
Sex cells are haploid cells, meaning that they have half the cells of body cells. If a pig has 38 chromosomes, then in its egg cells there will be 19 chromosomes. Also in a male pig there will be 19 in its sperm cells.
What is the name for cells produced by meiosis?
The cells that are produced by meiosis are referred to as gametes. These gametes can either be sperm cells or egg cells.

What cell in the digestive system produces lysozyme?
Paneth cellsIn addition to defensins, Paneth cells secrete lysozyme[6], tumor necrosis factor-alpha[6] , and phospholipase A2.[citation needed] Lysozyme and phospholipase A2 both have clear antimicrobial activity. This battery of secretory molecules gives Paneth cells a potent arsenal against a broad spectrum of agents, including bacteria, fungi and even some enveloped viruses.
What is the function of intestinal crypts?
An intestinal crypt is a home to Paneth cells that secrete AMPs and control segregation.
What are the Crypts of lieberkuhn?
They are intestinal cells found in the Small Intestine (SI). They are in the inter-villi space (between villi) and project down into the lamina propria of the SI. They contain Paneth cells, which secrete lysozymes.
What sort of cells occur in the epithelium lining the villi and crypts of Lieberlukn and what are their function?
Enterocytes (absorptive cells) consist of many tightly packed microvilli over a plasma membrane that contains transport mechanisms for absorption and produces enzymes for the final step in digestion. Goblet cells are found on and between the villi on the crypt mucosa. These cells are responsible for the production and maintenance of the protective mucus blanket by synthesizing and secreting glycoproteins known as mucins. Enteroendocrine cells, often found in the lower part of the crypts, produce the hormones secretin and cholecystokinin. Paneth cells provide host defense against microbes in the small intestine. They secrete a number of antimicrobial molecules into the lumen of the crypt, thereby contributing to maintenance of the gastrointestinal barrier.
