Ion Channel Expression in the Developing Enteric Nervous System
The enteric nervous system arises from neural crest-derived cells (ENCCs) that migrate caudally along the embryonic gut. The expression of ion channels by ENCCs in embryonic mice was investigated using a PCR-based array, RT-PCR and immunohistochemistry. Many ion channels, including chloride, calcium, potassium and sodium channels were already expressed by ENCCs at E11.5. There was an increase i...
متن کاملPhenotypic expression in the developing murine enteric nervous system.
The development of the enteric nervous system was examined in fetal mice. Synthesis of [3H] acetylcholine ([3H]ACh) from [3H]choline and acetylcholinesterase histochemistry were used as phenotypic markers for cholinergic neurons, while the radioautographic detection of the specific uptake of [3H]serotonin (5-[3H]HT) and immunocytochemical staining with antiserum to 5-HT marked serotonergic neur...
متن کاملThe enteric nervous system.
T HE enteric nervous system is a collection of neu-rons in the gastrointestinal tract 1 that constitutes the " brain of the gut " and can function independently of the central nervous system. 2 This system controls the motility, 3,4 exocrine and endocrine secretions, 5 and microcirculation 6 of the gastrointestinal tract; it is also involved in regulating immune and inflammatory processes. 7 In...
متن کاملExpression profiling the developing mammalian enteric nervous system identifies marker and candidate Hirschsprung disease genes.
The enteric nervous system (ENS) is composed of neurons and glial cells, organized as interconnected ganglia within the gut wall, which controls peristalsis of the gut wall and secretions from its glands. The Ret receptor tyrosine kinase is expressed throughout enteric neurogenesis and is required for normal ENS development; humans with mutations in the RET locus have Hirschsprung disease (HSCR...
متن کاملThe human enteric nervous system.
Decades of work in animal models have demonstrated that the enteric nervous system (ENS) plays a key role in controlling gut functions. Recent advances made it possible to extend such studies to the ENS of man in health and even in disease. Such studies have already provided new insights into the pathophysiology of inflammatory and possibly functional bowel diseases. Studies on human ENS reveal...
