Development of the enteric nervous system.
Development of the ENS requires the function of a diverse set of genes encoding transcription factors, signaling molecules, and their receptors. Mutations of these genes result in altered ENS function in animals and humans. In particular, such mutations have been shown to contribute to many cases of Hirschsprung's disease. Elucidation of the mechanisms of ENS development and function allow the ...
متن کاملDevelopment of the zebrafish enteric nervous system.
The enteric nervous system (ENS) is composed of neurons and glia that modulate many aspects of intestinal function. The ability to use both forward and reverse genetic approaches and to visualize development in living embryos and larvae has made zebrafish an attractive model in which to study mechanisms underlying ENS development. In this chapter, we review the recent work describing the develo...
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 کاملGetting to the guts of enteric nervous system development.
Scientists from around the world gathered in New York City recently to discuss the latest research on enteric nervous system development at a meeting organised by Alan Burns and Heather Young. The participants enjoyed 3 days of presentations that spurred active conversations and highlighted the rapidly advancing research in this field.
متن کاملEmbryology and development of the enteric nervous system.
Origin and migration of neural crest derived cells in the gut The neurones and glial cells of the enteric nervous system (ENS) are derived from the neural crest (fig 1). While they are migrating, neural crest cells are morphologically indistinguishable from mesenchymal cells through which they migrate, and thus a variety of experimental approaches have been used to examine colonisation of the g...
