Article Synopsis
- - The review highlights the under-researched area of DNA damage and repair in the enteric nervous system (ENS), which plays a crucial role in gut function and has unique vulnerabilities compared to the central nervous system.
- - It emphasizes the challenges the ENS faces regarding DNA damage, including internal stressors and external factors like pollutants and inflammation, which can lead to various neuropathies.
- - The article points out the link between DNA repair defects, such as mutations in specific genes, and gastrointestinal disorders, stressing the need for more research into how these defects influence gut health and aging-related issues.
