Abnormal development of intrinsic innervation in murine embryos with anorectal malformations

Abstract: At later developmental stages, the expression levels of SP, VIP, and c-kit reduced in the circular muscle layer of the rectum in mice with etretinate-induced ARMs. This result indicates that reduced SP, VIP, and c-kit expression levels in the circular muscle layer may cause severe constipation in children who develop severe ARMs after definitive surgery.

“…The etiology of URSM has been linked to defects in mesodermal proliferation in early embryogenesis [ 7 ]. Kubota et al [ 15 ] investigated cell proliferation and apoptosis in murine embryos that develop anorectal malformations secondary to overdose administration of long acting vitamin A analogues. Results of the study demonstrated defective cell proliferation and cell apoptosis in the cloacal membrane and dorsocaudal region on day 11 with lack of apoptosis in the anal orifice on day 12 suggesting the severity of the presentation is related to the age of the fetus when the developmental defect takes place.…”
