In mathematics, the Fibonacci numbers or Fibonacci series or Fibonacci sequence are the numbers in the following integer sequence: (sequence A000045 in OEIS) By definition, the first two numbers in the Fibonacci sequence are 0 and 1, and each subsequent number is the sum of the previous two.
Tight Junctions. Tight junctions are found predominantly in epithelial tissues, such as intestinal brush border. Water and other fluids must be prevented from leaking between adjacent cells, so that body fluids do not gradually seep across the intestinal lining.
Box 2: IEC tight junctions and turnover. Below the mucous layers, intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) form a continuous physical barrier. Tight junctions connect adjacent IECs and are associated with cytoplasmic actin and myosin networks that regulate intestinal permeability.roups of lymphoid aggregates located in the submucosa of the small intestine that contain many immune cells, including B cells, T cells and dendritic cells. They have a luminal barrier consisting of specialized epithelial cells, called microfold cells, which sample the lumen and transport antigens.
