Abstract excerpt

Interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC) are important regulatory cells generating electrical rhythmicity and transducing neural signals in the gastrointestinal musculature. ICC express the proto-oncogene c-kit, a receptor tyrosine kinase, and can be examined morphologically using the c-Kit antibody. The c-kit gene is allelic with the murine white-spotting locus W, and the c-kit mutation (W mutation) affects various...
