NASHVILLE, Tennessee, Sept. 21 [TNSmedicalresearch] -- Vanderbilt University issued the following news:
Microvilli are protrusions on the surface of epithelial cells that are dedicated to mechanosensation in the inner ear, and chemosensation and solute uptake in the lungs, gut, intestine and urinary tract. Epithelial cells assemble dense arrays of microvilli called "brush borders" that protect against infections and injury.
