Journal ArticleDOI
Alzheimer's disease and Abeta toxicity: from top to bottom.
TL;DR: It is argued that a more integrated, top–down approach to brain function is needed to assess the role of A β in Alzheimer's disease, and that more attention should be paid to the effects of Aβ on synaptic function rather than on cell death.
Journal ArticleDOI
Intrinsic primary afferent neurons of the intestine
TL;DR: The intrinsic primaryAfferent neurons of the intestine are the only vertebrate primary afferent neurons so far identified with cell bodies in a peripheral organ and communicate with each other via slow excitatory synaptic potentials in self reinforcing networks and with interneurons and motor neurons via both fast and slow EPSPs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Projections and chemical coding of neurons with immunoreactivity for nitric oxide synthase in the guinea-pig small intestine
Marcello Costa,John B. Furness,S. Pompolo,Simon J. H. Brookes,Joel C. Bornstein,David S. Bredt,Solomon H. Snyder +6 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that nitric oxide synthase is located in a sub-population of enteric neurons, amongst which are inhibitory motor neurons that supply the circular muscle layer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enteric motor and interneuronal circuits controlling motility
TL;DR: This review summarizes the knowledge of motor neurones and interneurones in simple motility reflex pathways (ascending and descending excitation, descending inhibition) and it focuses on guinea‐pig ileum.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis of the responses of myenteric neurons in the small intestine to chemical stimulation of the mucosa
TL;DR: It is concluded that myenteric AH neurons of the guinea pig distal ileum are primary afferent neurons that respond to a variety of mucosally applied chemical stimuli with burst of AP, and the physiologically evoked transmission of slow EPSP to AH neurons suggests that primaryAfferent neurons interconnect in a self-reinforcing network.
