Diabetes and the enteric nervous system [PDF]
Abstract Diabetes is associated with several changes in gastrointestinal (GI) motility and associated symptoms such as nausea, bloating, abdominal pain, diarrhoea and constipation. The pathogenesis of altered GI functions in diabetes is multifactorial and the role of the enteric nervous system (ENS) in this respect has gained significant importance ...

ACETYLCHOLINE AND ITS SYNTHESIZING ENZYME CHOLINE ACETYLTRANSPHERASE IN THE ENTERIC NERVOUS SYSTEM [PDF]
The enteric nervous system is the largest and most complex division of the peripheral nervous system. Located in the wall of the gastrointestinal tract, it is a regulatory and coordination unit of the nervous system.

Parkinson mice show functional and molecular changes in the gut long before motoric disease onset
Background There is increasing evidence that Parkinson’s disease (PD) might start in the gut, thus involving and compromising also the enteric nervous system (ENS). At the clinical onset of the disease the majority of dopaminergic neurons in the midbrain

Enteric neurospheres are not specific to neural crest cultures: implications for neural stem cell therapies. [PDF]
Enteric neural stem cells provide hope of curative treatment for enteric neuropathies. Current protocols for their harvesting from humans focus on the generation of 'neurospheres' from cultures of dissociated gut tissue.

Altered epithelial barrier functions in the colon of patients with spina bifida
Our objectives were to better characterize the colorectal function of patients with Spina Bifida (SB). Patients with SB and healthy volunteers (HVs) completed prospectively a standardized questionnaire, clinical evaluation, rectal barostat, colonoscopy ...
