Illustration depicting a healthy intestinal mucosal surface with an epithelial monolayer facing the gut lumen. Columnar enterocytes with basally positioned nuclei form a brush border of densely packed microvilli, overlaid by a protective mucus layer. Rod-shaped, flagellated commensal bacteria inhabit the mucus without breaching the epithelial barrier. In the biological hierarchy, cells (enterocytes) form tissue (intestinal epithelium) within the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. In histology, physiology, and microbiology, this interface mediates nutrient absorption and host–microbiota interactions while maintaining barrier function.
