Enteric glia in homeostasis and disease: From fundamental biology to human pathology
2021, iScienceCitation Excerpt :Gabella was the first to label glia in the gut “enteric glial cells” (EGCs), in recognition that they were phenotypically distinct from Schwann cells (Gabella, 1981). He and others showed that many EGCs had small central perikarya and stellate processes, more similar in ultrastructure to astrocytes than Schwann cells (Gabella, 1971; Komuro et al., 1982). These morphological studies combined with the discovery that enteric glia expressed S100B and glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) (Ferri et al., 1982; Jessen and Mirsky, 1983), molecular markers characteristic of astrocytes, led to the idea that enteric glia were the “astroglia” of the gut.

2017, Neuroscience ResearchCitation Excerpt :For over forty years, astrocytic characteristics have been recognized in the enteric glia cell (EGC) (Gabella, 1971, 1981). The similarities between astrocytes and the enteric glia have been demonstrated in both morphological (Gabella and Trigg, 1984; Hanani and Reichenbach, 1994; Komuro et al., 1982) and functional (Aube et al., 2006; Ferri et al., 1982; Hoff et al., 2008; Jessen and Mirsky, 1980, 1983; Kimball and Mulholland, 1996; Nasser et al., 2006a) aspects. Even in response to different insults, such as inflammation and infection, similarities are observed between the responses of the astrocytes and the enteric glia (Cabarrocas et al., 2003; Coelho-Aguiar et al., 2015).
