Core Tip |
The ileocolonic sphincter controls the forward and backward flow by integrating its motility with that of the distal ileum and proximal the ileocolonic sphincter controls the forward and backward flow by integrating its motility with that of the distal ileum and proxima. The ileocecal junction (ICJ) includes the muscle bundles in the terminal ileum, the intrinsic nerve plexus. The ICJ includes the muscle bundles in the terminal ileum, the intrinsic nerve plexus. Given the importance of knowing how the ICJ changes with age, the objective of this study was to characterize the morphological changes in the ICJ in rats aged 21 d and 2 years, using optical microscopy and electronic scanning and transmission methodologies. Additionally, the neurochemical characterization of the inhibitory neurons of the myenteric plexus, which are immunoreactive to the enzyme nitric oxide synthase, and the staining of the neuronal population were employed to identify immunoreactivity to HuC/D. |
