Neuroendocrine cells in intestinal lamina propria. Detection with antibodies to chromogranin A.
This study details immunohistochemical experiments showing the location of chromogranin A-containing cells within the lamina propria of rat and human gut. The presence of this marker confirms the presence of neuroendocrine type cells in the lamina propria.
