Differential gene expression in the murine gastric fundus lacking interstitial cells of Cajal [PDF]
BMC Gastroenterology, 2003 Background The muscle layers of murine gastric fundus have no interstitial cells of Cajal at the level of the myenteric plexus and only possess intramuscular interstitial cells and this tissue does not generate electric slow waves.

The Crucial Role of the Interstitial Cells of Cajal in Neurointestinal Diseases [PDF]
Biomolecules, 2023 Neurointestinal diseases result from dysregulated interactions between the nervous system and the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, leading to conditions such as Hirschsprung’s disease and irritable bowel syndrome.

Journal of Indian Association of Pediatric Surgeons, 2022 Introduction: The etiopathogenesis of pelviureteric junction obstruction (PUJO) has been debated. Recently, the role of interstitial cells of Cajal-like cells (ICC-LC) has been studied and reported to be the cause of this functional obstruction.
