Neurohumoral control of gastrointestinal motility.
Neurohumoral substances and their receptors play a major part in the complex regulation of gastrointestinal motility and have therefore been the predominant targets for drug development. The numerous receptors involved in motility are located mainly on smooth muscle cells and neuronal structures in the extrinsic and intrinsic parts of the enteric nervous system. Within this system, receptor ago...
متن کاملNeurohumoral control of gastrointestinal motility.
The progress of gastrointestinal physiology is presently dominated by the concept of neuroendocrine regulation and the control of motility is in keeping with this concept. Progress in biochemistry, immunocytochemistry and radioimmunoassay in the past few years has produced a whole new collection of peptide molecules extracted from the digestive tract. Two facts are evident from these new data: ...
متن کاملGastrointestinal Motility
Anatomic regions of the stomach are the fundus, corpus (body), antrum and pylorus. The functional regions of the stomach do not correspond to the anatomic regions. Functionally, the stomach can be divided into the gastric reservoir and the gastric pump (Fig. 1). The gastric reservoir consists of the fundus and corpus. The gastric pump is represented by the area at which peristaltic waves occur:...
متن کاملGastrointestinal Motility
Gastrointestinal (GI) motility is an essential function of digestive and absorptive processes of the gut, required for propelling intestinal contents, mixing them with digestive juices, and preparing unabsorbed particles for excretion. Pivotal to the discussion of mechanisms for producing defined patterns of motor responses are important and intimately related aspects of intestinal neurophysiol...
متن کاملAging and neural control of the GI tract: IV. Clinical and physiological aspects of gastrointestinal motility and aging.
The gastrointestinal motility changes that occur as a function of age are reviewed herein. Careful attention must be given in any review of aging phenomena to exclude, or at least be cognizant of, the many comorbid conditions that can alter physiological functioning in older adults. The dramatic increase in life expectancy over the past 10-15 years demands that clinicians be aware of the variou...
