Key Words Enteric nervous system; Gastrointestinal motility disorders; Irritable bowel syndrome; Inflammatory bowel diseases; Neuroprotection
Core Tip The enteric nervous system (ENS) serves as a pivotal regulatory system within the gastrointestinal tract. Dysfunction in the ENS has been linked to a range of gastrointestinal disorders, including irritable bowel syndrome, gastroparesis, and inflammatory bowel diseases. Advances in therapeutic approaches targeting ENS pathways—ranging from neurotransmitter modulation to gene therapy—hold great promise for improving patient outcomes. By leveraging the gut-brain axis and focusing on restoring neural and glial cell function, these therapies represent a new frontier in gastrointestinal medicine. Targeting the ENS could offer a more effective, individualized approach to managing complex gastrointestinal diseases, providing significant improvements in symptom management and quality of life for affected patients.
