Lymphoid tissue in the nasal mucosa of primates, with particular reference to intraepithelial lymphocytes.

A survey of the literature on the lymphoid tissue of the mucosa of the respiratory tract has revealed a few reports dealing with the situation in the lung (Miller, 1911; Andrew & Burns, 1947; Brundelet, 1965; Shields, Touchon & Dickson, 1969), but a paucity of information about lymphoid tissue in the nose. As intraepithelial lymphocytes are in fact readily observed in the nasal mucosa it seemed worthwhile to investigate their morphology in detail, using available primate material.
