Gastric motility disorders and the role of electrogastrography [PDF]

open access: yesLiječnički vjesnik, 2022
Abnormal gastric motility occurs in many pediatric gastrointestinal organic diseases but also functional disorders. Gastrointestinal motility results from complex interaction od muscles, myenteric plexus, peripheral nervous system, and brain.

Anatomical and functional maturation of the mid-gestation human enteric nervous system

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Immature gastrointestinal motility impedes preterm infant survival. The enteric nervous system controls gastrointestinal motility, yet it is unknown when the human enteric nervous system matures enough to carry out vital functions.

Magnetic tracking of gastrointestinal motility [PDF]

open access: yesPhysiological Measurement, 2020
AbstractCapsule-based methods for assessment of gastrointestinal (GI) motility have seen great improvements in recent decades. The most recent development is the electromagnetic Motilis 3D-Transit system (3D-Transit). The aim of this paper is to review and discuss the development and technical properties of magnetic tracking of GI motility.

Relaxin and gastrointestinal motility

open access: yesItalian journal of anatomy and embryology = Archivio italiano di anatomia ed embriologia, 2013
Relaxin is involved in a variety of functions. Among them, relaxin influences gastrointestinal motility in mice mainly regulating the biosynthesis of nitric oxide, considered as the main substance causing smooth muscle relaxations. Relaxin is able to regulate the different nitric oxide synthase expression depending on the gut region considered. Relaxin

Esophageal High Pressure Zones: Effect of Perisophageal Structures on Esophageal Manometric Recording

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Gastroenterology, 1994
During the course of esophageal motility studies, short zones of elevated esophageal baseline pressure are occasionally noticed. The aim of this study is to determine their frequency and their cause. Among 77 consecutive esophageal manometries (group 1),

Exogenous Hydrogen Sulfide Within the Nucleus Ambiguus Inhibits Gastrointestinal Motility in Rats

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2020
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is a neuromodulator in the central nervous system. However, the physiological role of H2S in the nucleus ambiguus (NA) has rarely been reported. This research aimed to elucidate the role of H2S in the regulation of gastrointestinal

Prolonged lipopolysaccharide‐induced illness elevates glucagon‐like peptide‐1 and suppresses peptide YY: A human‐randomized cross‐over trial

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, 2022
Severe systemic inflammation is associated with nausea, loss of appetite, and delayed gastric emptying, which increases hospitalization admission length and mortality rate.

Effects of Serotonin and Slow-release 5-HTP on Gastrointestinal Motility in a Mouse Model of Depression.

open access: yesGastroenterology, 2019
BACKGROUND & AIMS Mood disorders and constipation are often comorbid yet their shared etiologies have rarely been explored. The neurotransmitter serotonin (5-HT) regulates central nervous system and enteric nervous system (ENS) development and long-term ...

Interactions Between Commensal Bacteria and Enteric Neurons, via FPR1 Induction of ROS, Increase Gastrointestinal Motility in Mice.

open access: yesGastroenterology, 2019
BACKGROUND & AIMS Reduced gastrointestinal (GI) motility is a feature of disorders associated with intestinal dysbiosis and loss of beneficial microbes. It is not clear how consumption of beneficial commensal microbes, marketed as probiotics, affects the

Regulation of Gastrointestinal Motility by Motilin and Ghrelin in Vertebrates

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2019
The energy balance of vertebrates is regulated by the difference in energy input and energy expenditure. Generally, most vertebrates obtain their energy from nutrients of foods through the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. Therefore, food intake and following
