Confusion of "the interstitial cells of Cajal".

Journal of Smooth Muscle Research, 1991
What did SR Cajal described as the interstitial cells? The structure of the nerve plexuses in the guinea-pig small intestine stained by the Champy-Maillet (ZIO) method was investigated by light microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. Scanning electron microscopic examination of the nerve elements in various layers of the intestinal wall was ...

Interstitial cells of Cajal — systematic review

Folia Morphologica, 2016
This paper reviews the distribution of interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC) in the human gastro-intestinal (GI) tract, based on ultrastructural and immunohistochemical evidence. The distribution and morphology of ICC at each level of the normal GI tracts is addressed from the perspective of their functional significance.

Interstitial cells of Cajal and telocytes in the gut: twins, related or simply neighbor cells?

Biomolecular Concepts, 2016
In the interstitium of the connective tissue several types of cells occur. The fibroblasts, responsible for matrix formation, the mast cells, involved in local response to inflammatory stimuli, resident macrophages, plasma cells, lymphocytes ...

Changes of smooth muscle contractile filaments in small bowel atresia [PDF]

, 2012
AIM: To investigate morphological changes of intestinal smooth muscle contractile fibres in small bowel atresia patients. METHODS: Resected small bowel specimens from small bowel atresia patients (n = 12) were divided into three sections (proximal ...

Interstitial cells of Cajal in diabetic gastroenteropathy [PDF]

Neurogastroenterology & Motility, 2007
Abstract  Gastroenteropathy causes considerable morbidity in patients with diabetes mellitus and represents a major healthcare burden. Current treatments are largely symptomatic and frequently ineffective. Development of new therapeutic options is hampered by poor understanding of the underlying pathomechanisms.

Perivascular Interstitial Cells of Cajal in Human ColonSummary

Cellular and Molecular Gastroenterology and Hepatology, 2015
Background & Aims: Interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC) closely associate with nerves and smooth muscles to modulate gut motility. In the ICC microenvironment, although the circulating hormones/factors have been shown to influence ICC activities, the ...

Hedgehog pathway dysregulation contributes to the pathogenesis of human gastrointestinal stromal tumors via GLI-mediated activation of KIT expression. [PDF]

, 2016
Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) arise within the interstitial cell of Cajal (ICC) lineage due to activating KIT/PDGFRA mutations. Both ICC and GIST possess primary cilia (PC), which coordinate PDGFRA and Hedgehog signaling, regulators of ...

Inhibitory responses mediated by vagal nerve stimulation are diminished in stomachs of mice with reduced intramuscular interstitial cells of Cajal [PDF]

, 2017
Intramuscular interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC-IM) are closely associated with enteric motor nerve terminals and electrically coupled to smooth muscle cells within the gastric musculature.

Mixed‐Metal Promotion in a Manganese‐Molybdenum Oxynitride as Catalyst to Integrate C─C and C─N Coupling Reactions for the Direct Synthesis of Acetonitrile from Syngas and Ammonia

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Transition metal oxy/carbo‐nitrides show great promise as catalysts for sustainable processes. A Mn‐Mo mixed‐metal oxynitride attains remarkable performance for the direct synthesis of acetonitrile, an important commodity chemical, via sequential C─N and C─C coupling from syngas (C1) and ammonia (N1) feedstocks.

Orai1 mediates tumor-promoting store-operated Ca entry in human gastrointestinal stromal tumors via c-KIT and the extracellular signal–regulated kinase pathway

Tumor Biology, 2017
Gastrointestinal stromal tumors originate from interstitial cells of Cajal, the pacemaker cells of the gut. Ca 2+ regulates the pacemaker activity of interstitial cells of Cajal.
