The gut–brain axis, a bidirectional neurohumoral communication system, is important for maintaining homeostasis and is regulated through the central and enteric nervous systems and the neural, endocrine, immune, and metabolic pathways, and especially including the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis (HPA axis). [2]
The phenomenon of the gut–memory connection is based on and part of the idea of the gut-brain axis, a complex communication network, linking the central nervous system to the gut. The gut-brain axis first gained significant momentum in research and formal recognition in the 20th century with advancements in neuroscience and gastroenterology ...
The enteric glia, enteric glial cells or EGCs are a population of neuroglial cells that populate the enteric nervous system. [1]These cells are one of the major neural-crest-derived cell lineages, found throughout the gastrointestinal tract.
Together, the findings join a growing body of data about what scientists call the gut-brain axis — the two-way communication pathway that connects the functions of the gastrointestinal tract and ...
The gut microbiota contributes to digestion and immune modulation, as it plays a role in the gut-brain axis, where microbial metabolites such as short-chain fatty acids and neurotransmitters influence brain function and behavior. The gut–brain axis is the biochemical signaling that takes place between the gastrointestinal tract and the ...
This study highlights the gut microbiome's role in brain function and mental health is a growing research area, particularly during adolescence, a critical period for gut-brain axis development. This study systematically reviewed and analyzed the effects of psychobiotic interventions on anxiety in youth (ages 10–24).
Layers of the Alimentary Canal.The wall of the alimentary canal has four basic tissue layers: the mucosa, submucosa, muscularis, and serosa. The enteric nervous system in humans consists of some 500 million neurons [11] (including the various types of Dogiel cells), [1] [12] 0.5% of the number of neurons in the brain, five times as many as the one hundred million neurons in the human spinal ...
In an appearance on "The Pacman Jones Show," the Hall of Famer and Colorado coach made it clear what he thinks the future holds for his son.
