Neuregulin 1 (NRG1) and its receptors in the enteric nervous system and other parts of the gastrointestinal wall.
Histology and Histopathology 2024 Februrary 15
Neuregulin 1 (NRG1) belonging to the transmembrane growth factors family is widespread in living organisms. It acts through ErbB family receptors and first of all takes part in embryogenesis, as well as in developmental, regenerative and adaptive processes occurring in various internal organs and systems. It is known that NRG1 and its receptors are present in various parts of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. First of all NRG1 and ErbB receptors have been detected in the enteric nervous system (ENS) localized in the wall of the esophagus, stomach and intestine and regulating the majority of the GI tract functions, but also in the mucosal and muscular layers of the GI tract. The NRG1/ErbB pathway is involved in the development and differentiation of the ENS and regulation of the intestinal epithelium functions. Moreover, dysregulation of this pathway results in a wide range of gastrointestinal diseases. However, till now there are no summarizations of previous studies concerning distribution and functions of NRG1 and its receptors in the GI tract. The present review fills this gap.
