Objective: The aim of this study was to explore the development of enteric glial cells (EGCs) in different segments of Hirschsprung's disease (HSCR).Methods: Colonic specimens from 35 children with HSCR were selected to analyze the relative expression of glial fibrillary acidic protein and S100 calcium-binding protein B using Western blotting and real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR. Immunofluorescence and immunohistochemical staining were performed to determine the distribution of myenteric EGCs and neuronal cells in different segments of HSCR.Results: There was a trend of diminished protein and mRNA expression of glial fibrillary acidic protein and S100 calcium-binding protein B from the proximal, dilated, and transitional segments to the aganglionic segment (p < 0.05). Immunofluorescence and immunohistochemistry showed that the EGCs in the aganglionic, transitional, and dilated colonic muscles were morphologically abnormal, which was consistent with the dysplasia of myenteric neurons.Conclusion: Aberrant development of myenteric EGCs was observed in the colon of HSCR, which may affect the survival of enteric neurons.

Purpose: Foot-strike patterns (FSP) in running are related to certain impact kinetics during ground contact. A rear-foot strike (RFS) has been associated with higher impact forces, whereas a forefoot strike (FFS) is assumed to minimize these impact forces. This study investigated the effects of running with RFS or FFS on impact-sensitive neuronal biomarkers S100 calcium-binding protein B (S100B), neuron-specific enolase (NSE), and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH). Methods: In this randomized crossover study, 18 healthy recreational runners (14 male, mean [SD] age 28.2 [4.7] y, body mass index 22.8 [1.9]) ran 2 separate 5-mile runs with RFS or FFS, respectively. Blood samples were taken before (pre), 30 min after (post 0), and 24 h after (post 24) the run. S100B, NSE, and LDH concentrations were determined and analyzed (3 × 2 data model). Results: S100B, NSE, and LDH concentrations increased from pre to post 0 and decreased within 24 h back to the baseline level, demonstrating a significant time effect (all P < .01, all ). No main effect for FSP or any significant interaction effect indicating FSP-specific differences between FFS or RFS was found (all P > .05, all ), except for LDH (P < .001, ). Conclusions: NSE, S100B, and LDH concentration increased in the short term after running and returned to normal in 24 h. FSP with varying impact forces does not influence the increase of these biomarkers. LDH findings favor peripheral origins, but mixed effects are possible. Thus, further research is needed to estimate the risk of mild traumatic encephalopathy.
