Overview: intestinal glands

Epithelial invaginations into the lamina propria of the small intestine form the intestinal glands, also known as the glands or crypts of Lieberkuhn; the bases of these glands extend down to the muscularis mucosae.  Intestinal glands contain goblet cells, some absorptive cells, Paneth cells, and enteroendocrine (DNES) cells.  400x
