BLOOD VESSELS IN GANGLIA IN HUMAN ESOPHAGUS MIGHT EXPLAIN THE HIGHER FREQUENCY OF MEGAESOPHAGUS COMPARED WITH MEGACOLON

open access: yesRevista do Instituto de Medicina Tropical de São Paulo, 2014
This study aimed to determine the existence of blood vessels within ganglia of the myenteric plexus of the human esophagus and colon. At necropsy, 15 stillborns, newborns and children up to two years of age, with no gastrointestinal disorders, were ...

Review article: pathogenesis and clinical manifestations of gastrointestinal involvement in systemic sclerosis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
BACKGROUND: Gastrointestinal tract (GIT) involvement is a common cause of debilitating symptoms in patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc). There are no disease modifying therapies for this condition and the treatment remains symptomatic, largely owing to

Morphometric analysis of submucosal and myenteric nerve plexuses in chronic inflammatory bowel disease in children [PDF]

open access: yesMedicinski Podmladak
Introduction: Chronic inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) include ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD), characterized by relapses and an insufficiently clarified etiology.

Microencapsulated Quercetin and Bifidobacterium animalis Independently Preserve Jejunal Enteric Neurons During Colorectal Carcinogenesis. [PDF]

open access: yesNeurogastroenterol Motil
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.

Microstructure of the nerve plexus of the muscular membrane of the gut of domestic ducks (Anas platyrhynchos domesticus) of different ages

open access: yesRegulatory Mechanisms in Biosystems, 2021
As evidenced by the publications of recent years, contrary to the existing dogma about the immutability of the state of the enteric nervous system during the postnatal period of ontogenesis, the population of intestinal neurons is a dynamic formation ...

Bombesin-Stimulated Acetylcholine Release from Myenteric Plexus Neurons [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Surgical Research, 1993
The ability of bombesin to stimulate acetylcholine release from guinea pig myenteric plexus neurons was studied using a primary neuronal culture system. Bombesin caused dose-dependent increases in [3H]-acetylcholine (ACh) release from guinea pig myenteric plexus neurons. ACh release in response to 0.5 mM bombesin (160 +/- 12% of control) was blocked by

Activity of protease-activated receptors in primary cultured human myenteric neurons

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2012
Activity of the four known protease-activated receptors (PARs) has been well studied in rodent enteric nervous system and results in animal models established an important role for neuronal PAR2.

A Close Relationship Between Networks of Interstitial Cells of Cajal and Gastrointestinal Transit In Vivo

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2020
The interstitial cells of Cajal associated with the myenteric plexus (ICC-MP) are located in the same area as the myenteric plexus. ICC-MP networks are linked to the generation of electrical pacemaker activity that causes spontaneous gastrointestinal (GI)
