11.   In addition, evidence has been provided for an active transport mechanism in the human intestinal mucosa.

12.   The diagnosis of coeliac disease was based on the finding of a flat small intestinal mucosa or clinical response to a gluten free diet, or both.

13.   Neutrophil accumulation in the inflamed intestinal mucosa is a prominent feature in ulcerative colitis.

14.   The mechanism recruiting and activating the neutrophils in the intestinal mucosa in ulcerative colitis is probably multifactorial.

15.   Morphometric analysis of intestinal mucosa.

16.   The small intestinal mucosa was studied by histology, morphometry, biochemistry, and electron microscopy.

17.   Light microscopy of the small intestinal mucosa showed a mild to moderate enteropathy in all nine patients.

18.   Morphological measurements and enzyme activities carried out on intestinal mucosa are another good method of assessing dietary nitrogen quality.

19.   A defect in the barrir function of the intestinal mucosa has been proposed as important in both the pathogenesis and systemic mainifestations of inflammatory bowel disease.

20.   Indeed it has been proposed thatany increase in permeability in patients with inflammatory bowel disease results from polymorphonuclear transmigration through the intestinal mucosa.
