The enteric nervous system [PDF]

open access: yesDevelopmental Biology, 2012
The enteric nervous system (ENS), the intrinsic innervation of the gastrointestinal tract, consists of numerous types of neurons, and glial cells, that are distributed in two intramuscular plexuses that extend along the entire length of the gut and control co-ordinated smooth muscle contractile activity and other gut functions.

Enteric Nervous System: a Review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Enteric nervous system directs and regulates the breakdown, absorption and elimination of food in our digestive system. However, alongside its digestive functions, enteric nervous system has also gained importance because of the discovery of its bidirectional link with intestinal flora, which has recently started to be considered as a separate organ in

Imaging neuron-glia interactions in the enteric nervous system [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2013
The enteric nervous system (ENS) is a network of neurons and glia within the wall of the gastrointestinal tract that is able to control many aspects of digestive function independently from the central nervous system.

Visualizing enteric nervous system activity through dye-free dynamic full-field optical coherence tomography

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2023
Full-field optical coherence tomography (FFOCT) can be used for the visualization of the myenteric plexus network and individual myenteric ganglia cells in situ, showing that FFOCT is a suitable method to image enteric nervous system activity.

A functional network of highly pure enteric neurons in a dish

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2023
The enteric nervous system (ENS) is the intrinsic nervous system that innervates the entire digestive tract and regulates major digestive functions. Recent evidence has shown that functions of the ENS critically rely on enteric neuronal connectivity ...

Tau expression and phosphorylation in enteroendocrine cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2023
Background and objectiveThere is mounting evidence to suggest that the gut-brain axis is involved in the development of Parkinson’s disease (PD). In this regard, the enteroendocrine cells (EEC), which faces the gut lumen and are connected with both ...
