Glial cells in the mouse enteric nervous system can undergo neurogenesis in response to injury.
- Cátia Laranjeira, K. Sandgren, +4 authors V. Pachnis
- Biology, Medicine
- The Journal of clinical investigation
- 1 September 2011
The enteric nervous system (ENS) in mammals forms from neural crest cells during embryogenesis and early postnatal life. Nevertheless, multipotent progenitors of the ENS can be identified in the… Expand
A distinct vagal anti-inflammatory pathway modulates intestinal muscularis resident macrophages independent of the spleen
- G. Matteoli, P. Gomez-Pinilla, +9 authors G. Boeckxstaens
- Biology, Medicine
- Gut
- 8 August 2013
The cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway (CAIP) has been proposed as a key mechanism by which the brain, through the vagus nerve, modulates the immune system in the spleen. Vagus nerve stimulation… Expand

- 1 February 2015
Enteric glial cells are vital for the autonomic control of gastrointestinal homeostasis by the enteric nervous system. Several different functions have been assigned to enteric glial cells but… Expand
HDAC6 inhibition reverses axonal transport defects in motor neurons derived from FUS-ALS patients

- 11 October 2017
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a rapidly progressive neurodegenerative disorder due to selective loss of motor neurons (MNs). Mutations in the fused in sarcoma (FUS) gene can cause both… Expand
Histamine Receptor H1-Mediated Sensitization of TRPV1 Mediates Visceral Hypersensitivity and Symptoms in Patients With Irritable Bowel Syndrome.
- M. Wouters, D. Balemans, +25 authors G. Boeckxstaens
- Medicine
- Gastroenterology
- 1 April 2016
BACKGROUND & AIMS
Histamine sensitizes the nociceptor transient reporter potential channel V1 (TRPV1) and has been shown to contribute to visceral hypersensitivity in animals. We investigated the… Expand
Activity‐dependent regulation of tyrosine hydroxylase expression in the enteric nervous system

- Biology, Medicine
- The Journal of physiology
- 1 April 2008
The regulation of neuromediator expression by neuronal activity in the enteric nervous system (ENS) is currently unknown. Using primary cultures of ENS derived from rat embryonic intestine, we have… Expand
