Congenital segmental dilatation of the intestine in extremely low birth weight infants

open access: yesJournal of Pediatric Surgery Case Reports, 2020
Congenital segmental dilatation of the intestine can arise from various etiologies. Herein, we describe two cases of congenital segmental dilatation of intestine in extremely low birth weight infants of different etiologies, namely muscular abnormalities

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

open access: yes, 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.

Interstitial cells of Cajal in enteric neurotransmission [PDF]

open access: yesGut, 2000
Specialised cells known as interstitial cells of Cajal (ICCs), distributed in specific locations within the tunica muscularis of the gastrointestinal tract, serve as electrical pacemakers and mediators of enteric neurotransmission. Until recently, evidence to support a functional role of these cells has been, for the most part, indirect.

Fiber‐type soft bioelectronics for wearable and implantable sensing and therapy

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
Fiber‐type soft bioelectronics are emerging as versatile platforms for wearable and implantable health monitoring and therapeutic applications. These bioelectronics use organic and inorganic matrices combined with advanced fillers, which feature high conductivity, electrochemical sensitivity, softness, and biocompatibility.

TELOCYTES – a case of serendipity: the winding way from Interstitial Cells of Cajal (ICC), via Interstitial Cajal-Like Cells (ICLC) to TELOCYTES

open access: yesJournal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, 2010
Ramon y Cajal discovered a particular cell type in the gut, which he named ‘interstitial neurons’ more that 100 years ago. In the early 1970s, electron microscopy/electron microscope (EM) studies showed that indeed a special interstitial cell type ...

Clinical, manometric, genetic, and histologic associations in pediatric intestinal pseudo‐obstruction: A case series

open access: yesJournal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Pediatric intestinal pseudo‐obstruction (PIPO) is a severe bowel motility disorder characterized by impaired propulsion of gastrointestinal contents without mechanical obstruction. PIPO encompasses congenital and acquired disorders, including neuropathies, myopathies, and mesenchymopathies.

Gastrointestinal Dysmotility in MNGIE: from thymidine phosphorylase enzyme deficiency to altered interstitial cells of Cajal

open access: yesOrphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2019
BackgroundMNGIE is a rare and fatal disease in which absence of the enzyme thymidine phosphorylase induces systemic accumulation of thymidine and deoxyuridine and secondary mitochondrial DNA alterations.

Diagnosing Systemic Mastocytosis: State of the Art

open access: yesInternational Journal of Laboratory Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT With the advent of effective multikinase and selective tyrosine kinase inhibitors in systemic mastocytosis, diagnosing this rare disease has been critical to improving patient morbidity and mortality. This state‐of‐the‐art review interprets the international diagnostic criteria, including differences between the WHO 5th edition classification ...

Characterization of Neurochemical Signature Alterations in the Enteric Nervous System in Autoimmune Encephalomyelitis

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
To date, it has remained unclear whether gastrointestinal symptoms, which are frequently observed in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS), are accompanied by pathology of the enteric nervous system (ENS).
