IV. Genetic and animal models of GI motility disorders caused by loss of interstitial cells of Cajal
1 May 2002
Abstract excerpt
Several human motility disorders have been shown to be associated with loss or defects in interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC) networks. Because tissue samples for these studies were taken from patients with well-advanced motility problems, it is difficult to determine whether the loss of ICC is a cause or a consequence of the disease process. To establish the cause-and-effect relationship of ICC loss in motility...
