A tuft cell that is part of the duodenum.

Comments
In pediatric celiac disease and duodenal ulcers, duodenal tuft cell numbers are significantly reduced compared to healthy controls, suggesting that their loss may contribute to prolonged inflammation and compromised mucosal integrity. In acute duodenitis, tuft cell counts vary, with severe inflammation linked to lower numbers.
