Large intestine

The mucosa of the large intestine is lined by absorptive and goblet cells forming a simple columnar epithelium with microvilli.   Goblet cells increase in number from the beginning to the termination of the large intestine, providing lubrication.  A reduced number of enteroendocrine cells is present.  Straight intestinal glands are typical of the large intestine.  400x
