The cells have their bodies in the cerebral cortex, and the axons form the bulk of the pyramidal tracts. [4] The nerve axons travel from the cortex through the posterior limb of internal capsule, through the cerebral peduncle and into the brainstem and anterior medulla oblongata. Here they form two prominences called the medulla oblongatary ...

The Anatomy Lesson of Dr. Nicolaes Tulp , by Rembrandt ; depicts an anatomy demonstration using a cadaver .
Subsets of sensory intestinal epithelial cells synapse with nerves, [9] and are known as neuropod cells. [10] Paneth cells produce antimicrobial peptides such as human alpha-defensin. [11] [12] Microfold cells (commonly referred to as M cells) sample antigens from the lumen and deliver them to the lymphoid tissue associated with the mucosa (MALT).
