Anatomical and Histological Characterization of the Intestine of Artibeus lituratus. [PDF]

Anat Histol Embryol
ABSTRACT The order Chiroptera is highly diverse and is the second richest among mammals. Approximately 181 species are known in Brazil, with varied feeding habits that make them essential for ecological functions such as seed dispersal and plant regeneration. Despite the importance of their ecosystem services, the anatomical and histological aspects of

A neurochemical characterisation of the golden hamster myenteric plexus

Cell and Tissue Research, 1998
The neurochemical composition of nerve fibres and cell bodies in the myenteric plexus of the proventriculus, stomach and small and large intestines of the golden hamster was investigated by using immunohistochemical and histochemical techniques.

Changes in hyaluronan deposition in the rat myenteric plexus after experimentally-induced colitis. [PDF]

Sci Rep, 2017
Myenteric plexus alterations hamper gastrointestinal motor function during intestinal inflammation. Hyaluronan (HA), an extracellular matrix glycosaminoglycan involved in inflammatory responses, may play a role in this process.

Homeoprotein OTX1 and OTX2 involvement in rat myenteric neuron adaptation after DNBS-induced colitis [PDF]

PeerJ, 2020
Background Inflammatory bowel diseases are associated with remodeling of neuronal circuitries within the enteric nervous system, occurring also at sites distant from the acute site of inflammation and underlying disturbed intestinal functions ...

Characterisation of parasympathetic ascending nerves in human colon

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2022
BackgroundIn the human large bowel, sacral parasympathetic nerves arise from S2 to S4, project to the pelvic plexus (“hypogastric plexus”) and have post-ganglionic axons entering the large bowel near the rectosigmoid junction.

Visualizing enteric nervous system activity through dye-free dynamic full-field optical coherence tomography

Communications Biology, 2023
Full-field optical coherence tomography (FFOCT) can be used for the visualization of the myenteric plexus network and individual myenteric ganglia cells in situ, showing that FFOCT is a suitable method to image enteric nervous system activity.

New insight on the enteric cholinergic innervation of the pig colon by central and peripheral nervous systems: reduction by repeated loperamide administration

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2023
IntroductionThe central and peripheral nervous systems provide cholinergic innervation in the colon. The ability to assess their neuroanatomical distinctions is still a challenge.

Intestinal Region-Dependent Alterations of Toll-Like Receptor 4 Expression in Myenteric Neurons of Type 1 Diabetic Rats

Biomedicines, 2023
Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) can activate pro-inflammatory cascades in the gastrointestinal tract. Our aim was to determine TLR4 expression in myenteric neurons of different gut regions using a type 1 diabetic model.

scRNA-Seq Reveals New Enteric Nervous System Roles for GDNF, NRTN, and TBX3Summary

Cellular and Molecular Gastroenterology and Hepatology, 2021
Background and Aims: Bowel function requires coordinated activity of diverse enteric neuron subtypes. Our aim was to define gene expression in these neuron subtypes to facilitate development of novel therapeutic approaches to treat devastating enteric ...
