Does exposure to ionizing radiation modify neurally-evoked electrolyte transport and some inflammatory responses in rat colon in vitro?
Rat colon becomes hyporesponsive to neural stimuli post-irradiation. The response initially (1 and 3 days) correlates with decreased mast cells and histamine, but not at 7 days.
These results indicate that reduced ankle joint torque in DM2 patients with and without DPN is independent of the presence of disturbed nerve function.
