pubmed:abstractText |
Mucosal lymphoid nodules were identified within the equine respiratory tract by an acetic acid fixation technique. Nodules were identified in foetuses from nine months gestational age, and estimates of total and regional nodule populations were made in foetal, neonatal and adult horses. Nodules occurred at specific sites within the tract, which probably relate to areas where inhaled antigens accumulate. The largest populations of nodules occurred in the nasopharynx and larynx, with smaller numbers in the nasal cavity, trachea and bronchi. There was an age-related change in the size of these nodule populations, with an increase in number from late gestation to the neonatal period to early adulthood (up to 5 years of age), followed by a decrease in older adults.
