Neurochemical phenotype of the enteric nervous system is altered in transgenic compared with control mice. (A) Proportion of choline acetyltransferase (ChAT), substance P (SP), and vasoactive ...

Neural crest and placode lineages both contribute to the enteric nervous system, divergently utilizing Edn3-Ednrb and GDNF-Ret signaling.

Reviewer #2 (Public Review): This manuscript by Poltavski and colleagues explores the relative contributions of Pax2- and Wnt1- lineagederived cells in the enteric nervous system (ENS) and how they ...

Researchers developed an iPSC-derived peripheral myelination model, advancing research into rare diseases impacting the PNS and potential treatments.

The relationship between our nervous and digestive systems is a relatively new area of scientific study. But what Northeastern University researcher Abigail Koppes calls the "brain gut" connection has ...

The discovery of sympathetic nervous system cells in lampreys draws a closer tie between the animal and complex vertebrates — such as humans.

A team of scientists developed the first full model of the early embryonic central nervous system using stem cells.

The enteric nervous system (ENS) is home to hundreds of thousands of individual neurons. Scientists finally know how these neurons "talk" to each other.

Sitting alongside the neurons in your enteric nervous system are underappreciated glial cells, which play key roles in digestion and disease that scientists are only just starting to understand.
