A peg cell is a non-ciliated epithelial secretory cell within the uterine tube (oviduct or fallopian tube). [1] These cells represent one of three epithelial cell types found within the normal fallopian tube epithelium and only make up around 10% of the total number of cells. The other two cell types are ciliated columnar and intercalary cells. [1]
Polyethylene glycol. PEGylation (or pegylation) is the process of both covalent and non-covalent attachment or amalgamation of polyethylene glycol (PEG, in pharmacy called macrogol) polymer chains to molecules and macrostructures, such as a drug, therapeutic protein or vesicle, which is then described as PEGylated.
Percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) is an endoscopic medical procedure in which a tube (PEG tube) is passed into a patient's stomach through the abdominal wall, most commonly to provide a means of feeding when oral intake is not adequate (for example, because of dysphagia or sedation).

GI peptides are signal molecules that are released into the blood by the GI cells themselves. They act on a variety of tissues including the brain, digestive accessory organs, and the GI tract. The effects range from excitatory or inhibitory effects on motility and secretion to feelings of satiety or hunger when acting on the brain.
In the epithelium of the mouth, the attached gingiva exhibit rete pegs, while the sulcular [2] and junctional epithelia do not. [3] Scar tissue lacks rete pegs and scars tend to shear off more easily than normal tissue as a result. [1] Also known as papillae, they are downward thickenings of the epidermis between the dermal papillae.

Dental anomalies are among the most recognizable features of ED, with common findings including hypodontia (missing teeth), oligodontia (absence of six or more teeth), and anodontia (complete absence of teeth). Teeth that are present often exhibit unusual shapes, such as conical or peg-like forms, particularly in the anterior regions of the mouth.
