Enteric Nervous System Damage by Food Contaminants: A Pathway to Neurodegeneration?
ABSTRACT The enteric nervous system (ENS), a key component of the gut–brain axis, has emerged as a critical player in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD). It is the first neural system exposed to food contaminants (FCs)—a diverse group of ubiquitous toxic compounds fortuitously present in food derived from production, processing, storage, or ...

Morphologic and quantitative study of the myenteric neurons of the jejunum of malnourished rats (Rattus norvegicus) [PDF]
We studied the effects of maternal proteic desnutrition on the neurons of the myenteric plexus of the jejunum of rats from Rattus norvegicus species. It was used litters of female rats which received diet with normal proteic level during gestation and ...

Background Neuropathy is believed to be a common feature of functional and inflammatory intestinal diseases. Vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) is an acknowledged neuroprotective agent in peripheral, including enteric, and central neurons.

Neuroimaging of human myenteric neurons v1
This protocol is to investigate the sensitivity of human colonic myenteric neurons to chemical and electrical stimulation using ultrafast neuroimaging technique with the voltage sensitive dye Di-8-ANEPPS. We compared tissue samples from different colonic sub regions. Tissue samples were taken during surgery (Medical school of Hannover, Germany), placed
