Mast cells (MC) release potent mediators which alter enteric nerve and smooth muscle function and may play a role in the pathogenesis of the irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). The aim of this study was to determine if MC were increased in the colon of IBS patients compared to controls. Biopsy specimens were obtained from the caecum, ascending colon, descending colon and rectum of 28 patients:...... hiện toàn bộ Brain–gut connections in functional GI disorders: anatomic and physiologic relationships Tập 18 Số 2 - Trang 91-103 - 2006

Abstract Understanding the neural regulation of gut function and sensation makes it easier to understand the interrelatedness of emotionality, symptom‐attentive behavior or hypervigilance, gut function and pain. The gut and the brain are highly integrated and communicate in a bidirectional fashion largely through the ANS and HPA axis. Within the CNS, the locus of gu...... hiện toàn bộ The placebo effect in irritable bowel syndrome trials: a meta‐analysis1 Tập 17 Số 3 - Trang 332-340 - 2005

Abstract Background: Despite the apparent high placebo response rate in randomized placebo‐controlled trials (RCT) of patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), little is known about the variability and predictors of this response.Objectives: To describe the magnitude of response in placebo arms of ...... hiện toàn bộ Dysregulation of the hypothalamic‐pituitary‐adrenal (HPA) axis in irritable bowel syndrome Tập 21 Số 2 - Trang 149-159 - 2009

Abstract Enhanced stress responsiveness has been implicated as a potential mechanism contributing to the pathophysiology of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), and should be reflected in altered function of the hypothalamic‐pituitary‐adrenal (HPA) axis and the sympathetic nervous system. Both of these systems can modulate mucosal immune function. The aims of this study ...... hiện toàn bộ Ligand‐gated ion channels in the enteric nervous system Tập 14 Số 6 - Trang 611-623 - 2002
James J. Galligan
Abstract There are many cell surface receptors expressed by neurones in the enteric nervous system (ENS). These receptors respond to synaptically released neurotransmitters, circulating hormones and locally released substances. Cell surface receptors are also targets for many therapeutically used drugs. This review will focus on ligand‐gated ion channel...... hiện toàn bộ
