1 The neuropod cells. The neuropod cells. (Top left) Neuropod cells synapse with sensory neurons in the small intestine, as shown in a confocal microscopy image. Blue indicates all cells in villus; green indicates green fluorescent protein (GFP) in neuropod cell and sensory neurons. (Bottom left) This neural circuit is recapitulated in a coculture system between organoids and vagal neurons. Green indicates GFP in vagal neuron; red indicates tdTomato red fluorescence in neuropod cell. (Right) Neuropod cells transduce fast sensory signals from gut to brain. Scale bars, 10 µm.
