[Distribution of nervous system-specific enolase (NSE) and S-100 protein in the gastrointestinal tract of congenital aganglionosis rat]. 1985

M Horisawa, and Y Isiguro, and T Ito, and K Kato

Immunobiochemical and immunohistochemical studies were performed to find out changes in neural and glial components of the intestine in congenital aganglionosis rats. Nervous system-specific enolase (NSE) was used as a marker of the neural component. S-100 protein was used as a marker of the glial component. NSE and S-100 protein were quantitated by highly sensitive immunoassay. And distribution of NSE and S-100 protein of the intestine was studied by immunohistochemical methods in fetal rats of various gestational age. The results of our studies were followed; Significant decrease in NSE and S-100 protein was found in the aganglionic segment. Although there was no decrease in NSE, significant decrease in S-100 protein was found in the ganglionic segment just proximal to the aganglionic narrow segment. In the studies using rat embryos, NSE positive cells and S-100 protein positive cells were identified in the more caudal intestine with increasing gestational age. In addition, NSE positive cells appeared in the intestine few days earlier than S-100 protein positive cells did. In conclusion, our studies disclosed that there was abnormality of the glial component as well as the neural component in the intestine of Hirschsprung's disease.

D009418	S100 Proteins	A family of highly acidic calcium-binding proteins found in large concentration in the brain and believed to be glial in origin. They are also found in other organs in the body. They have in common the EF-hand motif (EF HAND MOTIFS) found on a number of calcium binding proteins. The name of this family derives from the property of being soluble in a 100% saturated ammonium sulfate solution.

D004064	Digestive System	A group of organs stretching from the MOUTH to the ANUS, serving to breakdown foods, assimilate nutrients, and eliminate waste. In humans, the digestive system includes the GASTROINTESTINAL TRACT and the accessory glands (LIVER; BILIARY TRACT; PANCREAS).	Ailmentary System,Alimentary System
D005333	Fetus	The unborn young of a viviparous mammal, in the postembryonic period, after the major structures have been outlined.

D005865	Gestational Age	The age of the conceptus, beginning from the time of FERTILIZATION. In clinical obstetrics, the gestational age is often estimated from the onset of the last MENSTRUATION which is about 2 weeks before OVULATION and fertilization. It is also estimated to begin from fertilization, estrus, coitus, or artificial insemination.
