The gastrointestinal tract is innervated by several distinct populations of neurons, whose cell
bodies either reside within (intrinsic) or outside (extrinsic) the gastrointestinal wall. Normally …

Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs) are chronic relapsing and remitting conditions
associated with long-term gut dysfunction resulting from alterations to the enteric nervous …

The enteric nervous system (ENS) of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract interacts with the local
immune system bidirectionally. Recent publications have demonstrated that such …

Ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD) are part of Inflammatory Bowel Diseases
(IBD) and have pathophysiological processes such as bowel necrosis and enteric neurons …

Inflammation in the intestines causes abdominal pain that is challenging to manage. The
terminals of sensory neurons innervating the gut are surrounded by glia. Here, using a …

Objective The enteric nervous system (ENS) undergoes neuronal loss and degenerative
changes with age. The cause of this neurodegeneration is poorly understood. Muscularis …

Inflammatory bowel disease is a chronic intestinal inflammatory condition, the pathology of
which is incompletely understood. Gut inflammation causes significant changes in neurally …

Background & Aims The concept of enteric glia as regulators of intestinal homeostasis is
slowly gaining acceptance as a central concept in neurogastroenterology. Yet how glia …

Neuroplastic changes in the enteric nervous system (ENS) may be observed in
