Abstract excerpt
Enteric glial cells (EGCs) influence nitric oxide (NO)- and adenosine diphosphate (ADP)- mediated signaling in the enteric nervous system (ENS). Since Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) participates to EGC homoeostasis, this study aimed to evaluate the possible involvement of EGCs in the alterations of the inhibitory neurotransmission in TLR4-/- mice. Ileal segments from male TLR4-/- and wild-type (WT) C57BL/6J mice...
