Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular defects in mucosal serotonin content and decreased serotonin reuptake transporter in ulcerative colitis and irritable bowel syndrome

TL;DR: Findings support the assertion that disordered gastrointestinal function in IBS involves changes intrinsic to the bowel and suggest that shared defects in 5-HT signaling may underlie the altered motility, secretion, and sensation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Review article: intestinal serotonin signalling in irritable bowel syndrome

TL;DR: All aspects of gastrointestinal function involve serotonin signalling between enterochromaffin cells and sensory nerve fibres in the mucosal layer of the gut and potential alterations in mucosal serotonin signalling have been explored.
Journal ArticleDOI

Increased Risk of Influenza and Influenza-Related Complications Among 140,480 Patients With Inflammatory Bowel Disease

TL;DR: Inflammatory bowel disease patients had an increased risk of influenza compared with those without IBD and were more likely to require hospitalization, and Steroids were the only medication class independently associated with flu risk.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of serotonin transporter inhibition on gastrointestinal motility and colonic sensitivity in the mouse

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that reduced SERT function (via pharmacological blockade) significantly alters GI motility and sensitivity in mice, and support the concept that altered SERT expression and function could contribute to symptoms associated with IBS and IBD.
Journal ArticleDOI

Serotonin signaling in diverticular disease

TL;DR: Alterations in 5-HT signaling do not appear to be responsible for the development of diverticula, however, patients with a recent history of acute diverticulitis have a significant attenuation in SERT expression and function, likely secondary to previous inflammation.
