A deficiency of gastric interstitial cells of Cajal accompanied by decreased expression of neuronal nitric oxide synthase and substance P in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus
Open accessAbstract
BackgroundGastrointestinal motility is impaired in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). Interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC) in the gastrointestinal tract play a central role in gastrointestinal motility. The present study examined whether ICC density, or expression of neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS)- and substance P (SP)-containing nerves in the gastric antrum, were altered in patients with type 2 DM.MethodsParaffin-embedded gastric specimens from 51 controls and 36 male DM patients with gastric cancer were used for immunohistochemistry. Serial sections were stained with Kit and mast cell tryptase-specific antibodies. Fresh-frozen gastric specimens from patients with gastric cancer were used for immunofluorescence. The specimens were stained with antibodies to Kit, nNOS, and SP, and levels of expression of these three markers were compared between controls and DM patients.ResultsICC density in the inner circular muscle layer, but not in the myenteric plexus, was lower in patients with severe DM than in controls in paraffin-embedded specimens. In addition, decreased expression of nNOS and SP accompanied by reduced ICC density was observed in frozen specimens from patients with DM.ConclusionsThese results suggest that lower gastric ICC, nNOS, and SP densities in patients with DM may be associated with the pathogenesis of diabetic gastroparesis.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
