Lactadherin, as one of the immune components in the breast milk, might play a role in the intestinal immune system of newborn. Therefore, we investigated the effect of lactadherin-feeding in early time on the development of intestinal immune system compared with naturally rearing and artificially rearing (non-lactadherin). In the present study, we observed that the Peyer's Patches (PP) from the pups of artificially reared group with lactadherin added were characterized by an excess of OX62(+)CD4(+)SIRP(+) DC cells and a higher expression of CD3(+)CD4(+)CD25(+)T cells.

Aim: To study the morphology and ontogeny of dendritic cells of Peyer's patches in rats at different development periods.

Methods: The morphometric and flow cytometric analyses were performed to detect all the parameters of villous-crypts axis and the number of OX62(+)DC, OX62(+)CD4(+)SIRP(+)DC, and OX62(+)CD4(-)SIRP(-)DC in the small intestine in different groups of rats. The relationship between the parameters of villous-axis and the number of DC and DC subtype were analyzed.
