Stimulus‐induced pacemaker activity in interstitial cells of Cajal associated with the deep muscular plexus of the small intestine
Abstract
BACKGROUND: The ICC-DMP have been proposed to generate stimulus-dependent pacemaker activity, rhythmic transient depolarizations, that take part in orchestrating segmentation and clustered propulsive motor patterns in the small intestine. However, little is known about the fundamental properties of ICC-DMP.
METHODS: This study was undertaken to increase our understanding of intrinsic properties of the ICC-DMP through calcium imaging and …
