Background Data on structural variations in the neuronal composition of myenteric ganglia
along the small intestine of various species are scarcely available. The aim of this study was …

The aim of the study was:(1) to test the suitability of neurofilament (NF)
immunohistochemistry for representing the shapes of morphologically defined neuron types …

Whole-mount preparations of guinea-pig small intestine and gall bladder stained using a
modified Giemsa technique were used to estimate neuronal and ganglion density, and …

Morphometric analysis was performed of two types of myenteric neurons with, at first glance,
very similar morphology, but different projections in the pig ileum. 50 type IV cells projecting …

Originally, intestinal motility was thought to be exclusively regulated by myenteric neurons.
Some years ago, however, it was demonstrated in large mammals that submucous neurons …

Muscular hypertrophy in the ileum of two pigs aged 6 weeks was induced using two different
surgical techniques, narrowing of the gut circumference (mechanical stenosis) and …

The aim of this study was to perform an immunohistochemical characterization of two
different myenteric neuron types of the pig displaying opposite axonal projections. These …

To date, there appear to have been no detailed and clear descriptions of the nerve plexuses
and their subdivisions in the intestine of cattle. In this study, the enteric nervous system in the …

Background Subsets of myenteric neurons have been identified. To determine the
proportional representation of neurons in each, it is necessary to relate the number of …

The projections of myenteric neurons within the myenteric plexus of the guinea-pig small
intestine were established using retrograde tracing in organotypic culture. Three days after …
