Q62: The paneth cell are seen in - General and Systemic Histology and Ultrastructure - Veterinary Anatomy- ICAR JRF/SRF 2024 | Agrigyan

• Intestinal Histology:
• Paneth cells are specialized pyramidal secretory epithelial cells situated strictly at the base of the Crypts of Lieberkühn within the Small intestine (particularly dense in the ileum).
• They contain prominent apical eosinophilic granules packed with antimicrobial peptides ($\alpha$-defensins, cryptdins, lysozyme, and secretory phospholipase $A_2$) that maintain intestinal microbiome homeostasis and mucosal barrier integrity.
• nalysis:
• (Small intestine): Correct anatomical localization.

Correct option: (2) Small intestine
