THERE is indirect evidence that immune stimulation by normal food antigens affects the mucosal layer of the small intestine in two ways. In suckling and germ-free rodents, not only are there fewer lymphoid cells in the small-intestinal mucosa (Dubos, 1966; CrabbC et al., 1970), but crypt-cell mitotic rates and the rate of epithelial cell loss are slower than in adult, conventionally reared and fed animals (Abrams, Bauer and Sprinz, 1963; O’Connor, 1966).
