Pathology Seen in Myenteric Plexus in Two Subjects With Waardenburg Syndrome

Neurogastroenterology &Motility, EarlyView.
Ganglion cells immunohistochemically labeled with pan‐neuronal marker HuC/D in sections from ileum. Note the different number of stained cells in the myenteric plexus. A, control subject, B, patient with SOX10 mutation (hypoganglionosis) C, patient with EDN3 mutation (aganlionosis). Both patients diagnosed with Waardenburg syndrome type 4 including gut

Stereoscopic Quantitative Analysis of Enteric Nervous System in Patients With Slow Transit Constipation

Neurogastroenterology &Motility, EarlyView.
This study used a stereoscopic imaging method that combines tissue clearance, immunohistochemistry, and confocal imaging techniques to construct a quantifiable three‐dimensional view of the enteric nervous system, accurately evaluating changes in the enteric nervous system of patients with slow transit constipation.

Hesperidin depolarizes the pacemaker potentials through 5-HT4 receptor in murine small intestinal interstitial cells of Cajal

Animal Cells and Systems, 2020
Hesperidin, a citrus flavonoid, can exert numerous beneficial effects on human health. Interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC) are pacemaker cells in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract.

The effect of high [K(+)]o on spontaneous Ca(2+) waves in freshly isolated interstitial cells of Cajal from the rabbit urethra. [PDF]

, 2014
Interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC) act as putative pacemaker cells in the rabbit urethra. Pacemaker activity in ICC results from spontaneous global Ca(2+) waves that can be increased in frequency by raising external [K(+)].

Relationship Between Intragastric Meal Distribution, Gastric Emptying, and Gastric Neuromuscular Dysfunction in Chronic Gastroduodenal Disorders

Neurogastroenterology &Motility, EarlyView.
Multimodal physiological testing using gastric emptying scintigraphy with intragastric meal distribution and body surface gastric mapping showed proximal retention of food correlated with delayed emptying and neuromuscular spectral abnormalities (abnormal slow wave frequencies or rhythms) and delayed motility responses on BSGM.

Identification of C-Kit-Positive Interstitial Cells in the Dog Lower Urinary Tract and Relationship with Smooth Muscle and Nerves. Hypotheses for a Likely Pacemaker Role.

Veterinary Medicine International, 2010
The aim of this work was to give an evidence of the likely presence of interstitial cells in the canine lower urinary tract and to study their possible interactions with the musculature and the intramural innervation.

Transcutaneous Electrical Acustimulation Improves Gastroparesis Symptoms and Ameliorates Gastric Pace‐Making Activity in Patients With Diabetic Gastroparesis

Neurogastroenterology &Motility, EarlyView.
Gastroparesis is common in patients with diabetes. However, treatment options for diabetic gastroparesis are limited. In our study, transcutaneous electrical acustimulation, a noninvasive method of delivering electrical stimulation via surface electrodes placed at certain acupuncture points with appropriate parameters was effective in treating the ...

Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumor in the Cecum of a Horse

Case Reports in Veterinary Medicine, 2012
Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are defined as specific CD117-(Kit, stem cell factor receptor) expressing tumors of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract.

Microencapsulated Quercetin and Bifidobacterium animalis Independently Preserve Jejunal Enteric Neurons During Colorectal Carcinogenesis

Neurogastroenterology &Motility, EarlyView.
Our study explores the impact of colorectal carcinogenesis on jejunal neurons of the enteric nervous system (ENS), revealing significant neuronal damage. We demonstrated that treatments with microencapsulated quercetin and Bifidobacterium animalis protect enteric neuronal density, and this is reflected in improved gastrointestinal transit times.
