Intestinal Mucosa

Molecular classification
Tissue, Epithelium, Connective Tissue, Smooth Muscle
01

Overview

The intestinal mucosa is the innermost layer of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, lining the lumen of the intestines. It plays a central role in digestion, absorption, secretion, and immune defense. The mucosa is structurally and functionally complex, adapting its features along different regions of the GI tract to meet specific physiological demands. It consists of epithelium, lamina propria, and muscularis mucosae.
