Immunohistochemical studies of the enteric nervous system and interstitial cells of Cajal in the canine stomach.
The distribution of interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC), the probable pacemakers in gastrointestinal motility, was investigated using an antigenic marker of gastric ICC known as C-Kit. Antiserum raised against the general neuronal marker protein gene peptide 9.5 (PGP) as well as the nitrergic neuronal marker neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) were used to investigate the distribution of gastri...
متن کاملDevelopment of c-kit immunopositive interstitial cells of Cajal in the human stomach
Interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC) include several types of specialized cells within the musculature of the gastrointestinal tract (GIT). Some types of ICC act as pacemakers in the GIT musculature, whereas others are implicated in the modulation of enteric neurotransmission. Kit immunohistochemistry reliably identifies the location of these cells and provides information on changes in ICC distri...
متن کاملInterstitial cells of Cajal in the urethra
The smooth muscle layer of the urethra generates spontaneous myogenic tone that is thought to make a major contribution to urinary continence. The mechanisms underlying generation of tone remain unclear, however recent studies from our laboratory highlighted a role for a specialised population of pacemaker cells which we originally referred to as interstitial cells (IC) and now term ICC. Urethr...
متن کاملInterstitial cells of Cajal and adaptive relaxation in the mouse stomach.
Interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC) are proposed to play a role in stretch activation of nerves and are under intense investigation for potential roles in enteric innervation. Most data to support such roles come from in vitro studies with muscle strips whereas data at the whole organ level are scarce. To obtain insight into the role of ICC in distention-induced motor patterns developing at the o...
متن کاملthe effect of taftan pozzolan on the compressive strength of concrete in the environmental conditions of oman sea (chabahar port)
cement is an essential ingredient in the concrete buildings. for production of cement considerable amount of fossil fuel and electrical energy is consumed. on the other hand for generating one tone of portland cement, nearly one ton of carbon dioxide is released. it shows that 7 percent of the total released carbon dioxide in the world relates to the cement industry. considering ecological issu...
