  • Title: Segmented filamentous bacteria associated with lymphoid tissues in the ileum of horses.
    Author: Lowden S, Heath T.
    Journal: Res Vet Sci; 1995 Nov; 59(3):272-4. PubMed ID: 8588105.
    Abstract:
    Segmented filamentous bacteria preferentially attached to the follicle-associated epithelium overlying the lymphoid tissue in samples of the terminal ileum from seven horses examined by scanning electron microscopy. The bacteria adhered to the apical membrane of the enterocytes by a holdfast segment. Each filament tended to be of uniform diameter, but the filaments ranged from 0.7 to 1.4 microns in diameter. The bacteria were usually absent from the adjacent villous epithelium.
