This paper introduces a cell-type-specific circadian reporter mouse to study circadian rhythms in intestinal cells, finding that enteric neurons show distinct entrainment properties to feeding schedules.

This study shows that KIT mutant retention in the Golgi/TGN in GISTs depends on the PLCγ2-PKD2-PLD2 pathway, leading to signal inactivation upon PLD inhibition.

The paper shows that different luminal nutrients activate distinct calcium responses in submucosal and myenteric neurons of the mouse small intestine.

This study shows zebrafish enteric glia can proliferate and generate enteric neurons, similar to brain neural stem cells, and are regulated by Notch signaling.

The paper shows microbiota induce AhR in enteric neurons, enabling them to respond to environmental signals.
