Definition

A unique, relatively rare intestinal epithelial cell type specialized for transepithelial transport of macromolecules, particles, and microorganisms. M cells in many species, including humans can be identified by morphological features such as their flattened apical surfaces and intraepithelial pockets containing lymphoid cells
