CART in the enteric nervous system
Peptides, 2006The expression, distribution, origin, projections, chemical coding and functions of cocaine and amphetamine-regulated transcript (CART) in the gastro-intestinal tract are reviewed. CART is extensively expressed in the enteric nervous system. Except from being a possible modulator of NO induced intestinal relaxation CART does not seem to play any ...

Ageing of the enteric nervous system
Mechanisms of Ageing and Development, 2004The intrinsic neurones of the enteric nervous system (ENS) play a fundamental role in the regulation of gastrointestinal functions. Although much remains to be learnt about the changes that take place in intestinal nerves during ageing, evidence suggests that selective neurodegeneration may occur in the ageing ENS.

Inflammatory neuropathies of the enteric nervous system☆
Gastroenterology, 2004Inflammatory neuropathy of the enteric nervous system is emerging as an important topic in the field of neurogastroenterology. Enteric ganglionitis can be either primary or secondary to a wide array of diseases (i.e., paraneoplastic, infectious, and neurological disorders) and is characterized by a dense infiltrate of inflammatory/immune cells mainly ...

TYPES OF NERVES IN THE ENTERIC NERVOUS SYSTEM
Neuroscience, 1980The enteric nervous system is one of the three divisions of the autonomic nervous system, the others being the sympathetic and parasympathetic. In contrast to the other divisions, it can perform many functions independently of the central nervous system.

Development of the enteric nervous system
Clinics in Perinatology, 2002Development of the ENS requires the function of a diverse set of genes encoding transcription factors, signaling molecules, and their receptors. Mutations of these genes result in altered ENS function in animals and humans. In particular, such mutations have been shown to contribute to many cases of Hirschsprung's disease. Elucidation of the mechanisms

Neurogenesis in the enteric nervous system.
Archives italiennes de biologie, 2010The enteric nervous system (ENS) represents the highly organized intrinsic innervation of the gastrointestinal tract and plays a critical role for all stages of postnatal life. Severe disturbances of ENS function can significantly influence life quality or, in severe cases, can have acute life-threatening effects.

Glutamate in the enteric nervous system
Current Opinion in Pharmacology, 2001Several lines of evidence indicate a role for glutamate in the regulation of gut motility and secretion; however, the receptor subtypes that mediate the effects of this amino acid are still incompletely understood. There has, however, been recent progress in pharmacological characterization of enteric glutamate receptor subtypes. In the past two years,

Interoception: The enteric nervous system enters the chat
Current BiologyIntrinsic enteric neurons regulate gut motility, secretion, and absorption, whereas extrinsic dorsal root ganglia sensory neurons are key in colon interoception and visceral pain. A new study raises the question of whether some initial interoceptive signals could originate from enteric neurons.

The gastrointestinal motility, exocrine secretions, and endocrine cells are controlled by an integrative nervous system, under the central command of the central nervous system. The enteric nervous system is considered to be quasi-autonomous and in certain circumstances may be self-sustained.
