midgut interstitial cell [FBbt_00005783]

Interstitial cell of the midgut. There are 30-40 cells that initially delaminate from the tip of the posterior midgut rudiment during embryonic stages 10 and 11. Later on, they intercalate into the midgut epithelium. The authors of FBrf0208023 refer to interstitial cells as “absorptive cells” to distinguish them from copper cells, although “absorptive cells” is also a synonym for enterocytes in general.
