The enteric nervous system is a vast network of neurons and glia running the length of the gastrointestinal tract that functionally controls gastrointestinal motility. A procedure for the isolation and culture of a mixed population of neurons and glia from the myenteric plexus is described. The primary cultures can be maintained for over 7 days, with connections developing among the neurons and...
The enteric nervous system coordinates various gut functions. Functional studies suggested that neurotransmitters and neuromodulators, one of the most prominent among them being 5-HT, may act through a specific modulation of ascending and descending enteric pathways. However, it is still mostly unknown how particular components of enteric reflex circuits are controlled. This report describes ex...
Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic non-specific inflammatory disease affecting the mucosa and the submucosa of the colon, and is characterized by alterations of gut functions which influence the clinical symptoms (Fiocchi, 1998; Reddy et al., 1991; Spriggs et al., 1951). Although reports showed morpho-functional abnormalities of the enteric nervous system in UC patients, the available literat...
Background electroacupuncture (EA) at acupoint ST-36 (Zusanli) has been used to alleviate gastrointestinal symptoms and improve gastrointestinal motility, but the effects and mechanisms of EA on enteric nervous system (ENS) have scarcely been investigated. SD rats were randomly divided into eight groups: normal control group, diabetes mellitus group (DM), chronic high-frequency EA (C-HEA), chro...
Peripheral neural 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) receptors are different from both classes 5-HT1 and 5-HT2, which have been described from studies of 5-HT receptors in the brain. Recently, it has been shown that, as in the CNS, there is more than a single type of neural receptor for 5-HT in the enteric nervous system. One of these, called 5-HT1P, has a high affinity for 3H-5-HT, initiates a long-la...
The enteric nervous system is derived from the vagal, rostral-truncal, and sacral levels of the neural crest. Because the crest-derived population that colonizes the bowel contains multipotent cells, terminal differentiation occurs in the gut and is influenced by both the enteric microenvironment and the responsivity of multiple lineages of precursors. Enteric growth factor-receptor combination...
Mitochondrial dysfunction is a central mediator of disease progression in diverse neurodegenerative diseases that often present with prominent gastrointestinal abnormalities. Gastrointestinal dysfunction in these disorders is related, at least in part, to defects in the enteric nervous system (ENS). The role of mitochondrial deficits in ENS neurodegeneration and their relative contribution to g...
Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) belong to the transforming growth factor superfamily and have been implicated in chondrogenesis and neuronal differentiation. In order to examine the function of bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP‑2) on the differentiation of nitrergic enteric neurons in slow transit constipation (STC), the expression of BMP‑2 and neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) was inves...
Opioid-induced constipation is a major side effect that persists with long-term opioid use. Previous studies demonstrated that nicotine-induced contractions are enhanced after long-term morphine exposure in guinea pig ileum. In the present study, we examined whether the increased sensitivity to nicotine could be observed in single enteric neurons after long-term morphine exposure, determined th...
