Abstract
It has been shown that there are two different types of Peyer’s patches, jejunal Peyer’s patches (JPP) and ileocecal or ileal Peyer’s patches (IPP) in sheep1. IPP have been proposed to be ‘bursa-equivalent’ lymphoid tissue of sheep and bear some characteristics of the primary lymphoid organ2. Like the bursa of Fabricius of chickens, IPP consist of numerous follicles of B cells whereas T cells account for only less than 1% of total cells. The majority of IPP cells express small amounts of surface IgM (low sIgM+ or slg10)3,4,5.
