| Core Tip |
Children with Hirschsprung’s disease experience symptoms of intestinal obstruction due to a spastically contracted aganglionic segment of distal bowel, however the mechanism for this spasticity is incompletely under?stood. Hyperpolarisation-activated nucleotide-gated channels play a key role in regulating cell excitability in both pacemaker and non-pacing cells. We examined expression of hyperpolarisation-activated nucleotide-gated (HCN) 1-4 in both Hirschsprung’s disease (HSCR) colon and healthy controls. While HCN-1 expression was absent, and HCN-2 and HCN-4 were expressed at similar levels in diseased and healthy bowel, we found HCN-3 to be reduced in aganglionic bowel in HSCR. We suggest deficient HCN3 channels may be involved in the pathophysiology of HSCR. |
