The human colon: Evidence for degenerative changes during aging and the physiological consequences
Reduced nociceptor innervation can explain diminished abdominal pain among the elderly. Degenerative changes occur within the colon wall, especially ascending colon. Mechanisms may include senescence‐like activity and inflammaging. Constipation is more likely to occur during age‐related challenges affecting functions of the bowel that now have reduced ...

Mechanisms of enteric neuropathy in diverse contexts of gastrointestinal dysfunction
Abstract The enteric nervous system (ENS) commands moment‐to‐moment gut functions through integrative neurocircuitry housed in the gut wall. The functional continuity of ENS networks is disrupted in enteric neuropathies and contributes to major disturbances in normal gut activities including abnormal gut motility, secretions, pain, immune dysregulation,

Chemotherapy‐Induced Neuropathy Affecting the Gastrointestinal Tract
Chemotherapy (with/without immunotherapy/radiotherapy) may induce neurotoxic effects on the gastrointestinal innervation. Chemotherapy‐induced enteric neuropathy (CIEN) and, probably, neurotoxicity affecting the extrinsic innervation of the gut and the brain underlie the frequent and impactful gut dysfunctions and brain–gut axis (BGA) disorders ...

Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Gastric Motility in Conscious Rats
By training rats to remain awake inside an MRI scanner, we can now noninvasively scan their gastrointestinal tracts without using anesthesia. This allows us to assess gastric motility and emptying in conscious rats without the various confounding effects that anesthesia might cause.
