Peripheral Mechanisms of Symptom Generation in Irritable Bowel Syndrome by Stephen M Collins

“…The gut and the autonomic nervous system are principal areas of research in identifying mechanisms underlying symptom generation and in the identification of new targets for drug development. While motility changes occur in IBS, they are neither specific nor predictable, and this is one reason why drugs aimed at influencing motility patterns have enjoyed limited success to date. …”

Functional Epithelium Remodeling in Response to Applied Stress under In Vitro Conditions by Ivana Pajic-Lijakovic, Milan Milivojevic

“…Configuration of migrating cells is influenced by mechanical and biochemical perturbations, difficult to measure experimentally, which lead to uncorrelated motility. Uncorrelated motility results in (1) decrease of the volume fraction of migrating cells, (2) change of their configuration, and (3) softening of multicellular surfaces.…”
