"But we did get something that looks very much like Parkinson’s disease in the gut.” Next, they wanted to quantify the loss of enteric neurons, so they fluorescently labeled the antineuronal nuclear ...

His new work shows enteric neurons in two mouse models of Batten disease degenerate in the bowel, paralleling neurodegeneration long known to occur in the brain and spinal cord. Cooper's prior ...

Neurons are made of three parts Neurons receive ... The involuntary part of the PNS includes the sympathetic, parasympathetic, and enteric nervous systems. The sympathetic, parasympathetic ...

It was hypothesized that the crosstalk between Toll-like receptors, especially Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), and serotonergic machinery during inflammation may be an important factor for understanding ...

Scientists have used advanced X-ray phase-contrast tomography (XPCT) to uncover how gut health may influence Alzheimer’s disease.

When stressed, enteric glia cells showed increased proinflammatory pathways, which worsened bowel inflammation by attracting more white blood cells. The team also found that stress increased the ...
