Aberrant Development of Enteric Glial Cells in the Colon of Hirschsprung's Disease

Objective: The aim of this study was to explore the development of enteric glial cells (EGCs) in different segments of Hirschsprung's disease (HSCR).Methods: Colonic specimens from 35 children with HSCR were selected to analyze the relative expression of glial fibrillary acidic protein and S100...

Immunofluorescence and immunohistochemical staining were performed to determine the distribution of myenteric EGCs and neuronal cells in different segments of HSCR.Results: There was a trend of diminished protein and mRNA expression of glial fibrillary acidic protein and S100 calcium-binding protein B from the proximal, dilated, and transitional segments to the aganglionic segment (p < 0.05). Immunofluorescence and immunohistochemistry showed that the EGCs in the aganglionic, transitional, and dilated colonic muscles were morphologically abnormal, which was consistent with the dysplasia of myenteric neurons.Conclusion: Aberrant development of myenteric EGCs was observed in the colon of HSCR, which may affect the survival of enteric neurons.Tingting ZhouWei LiuXiaofang YuZengcai CaoWeijing MuPeimin HouChuantao RenChuantao RenAiwu LiFrontiers Media S.A.articleHirschsprung's diseaseenteric glial cellsenteric nervous systemglial fibrillary acidic proteinS100 calcium-binding protein BPediatricsRJ1-570ENFrontiers in Pediatrics, Vol 9 (2021)
