AIM:To investigate whether the expression of plateletderived growth factor receptor-α-positive (PDGFRα + )cells is altered in Hirschsprung's disease (HD).METHODS: HD tissue specimens (n = 10) were collected at time pull-through surgery, while colonic control samples obtained colostomy closure patients with imperforate anus 10).Immunolabelling PDGFRα -cells was visualized using confocal microscopy to assess distribution these cells, Western blot analysis undertaken quantify protein...
To determine if expression of colonic tryptophan hydroxylase-2 (TPH2), a surrogate marker neuronal 5-hydroxytryptamine, is altered in Hirschsprung's-associated enterocolitis.Entire resected specimens were collected at the time pull-through operation children with Hirschsprung's disease (HSCR, n = 12). Five these patients had history pre-operative enterocolitis (HAEC). Controls colostomy closure anorectal malformation (n 10). The distribution TPH2 was evaluated using immunofluorescence and...
