Rhythxiicity of the Pyloric Sphincter
The functions of the pyloric sphincter are usually considered dcpcndent upon t’he physical condit,ion and relative degree of acidity of the ga,stric content. Such an explanation fails in great pa)rt, to account1 for certalin phenomena associated wit,h tlhe processes of gast)ric evacuation botlh in hea1t.h and disease. It also fails to consider t,hc purpose of gastric mot.ilit,y save for mixing ...
متن کاملThe hormonal regulation of pyloric sphincter function.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the hormonal control of pyloric sphincter function. Studies were performed on both pyloric circular muscle, in vitro, and the human pylorus, in vivo. Full dose-response curves to gastrin I, cholecystokinin, and secretin were constructed for the pyloric muscle of the opossum studied at its length of optimal tension development, Lo. Both cholecystokinin a...
متن کاملSOX9 specifies the pyloric sphincter epithelium through mesenchymal-epithelial signals.
Gastrointestinal (GI) development is highly conserved across vertebrates. Although several transcription factors and morphogenic proteins are involved in the molecular controls of GI development, the interplay between these factors is not fully understood. We report herein the expression pattern of Sox9 during GI development, and provide evidence that it functions, in part, to define the pylori...
متن کاملNon-distorting Flattening for Virtual Colonoscopy
In this paper, we consider a novel 3D visualization technique based on surface flattening for virtual colonoscopy. Such visualization methods could be important in virtual colonoscopy since they have the potential for non-invasively determining the presence of polyps and other pathologies. Further, we demonstrate a method which presents a surface scan of the entire colon as a cine, and affords ...
متن کاملMechanics of sphincter action. Studies on the lower esophageal sphincter.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the mechanical factors involved in the genesis of lower esophageal sphincter pressure. We determined the relationship between intraluminal pressure and inside diameter, estimated the ratio between the wall thickness to inside radius, and calculated the tension in the wall of the lower esophageal sphincter as a function of the inside diameter. Various de...
