We evaluated the chemical coding of the myenteric plexus in the proximal and distal
intestine of gilthead sea bream (Sparus aurata), which represents one of the most farmed …

Background Intestinal ischemia followed by reperfusion (I/R) may occur following intestinal
obstruction. In rats, I/R in the small intestine leads to structural changes accompanied by …
