Purines such as ATP are regulatory transmitters in motility of the gastrointestinal tract. The aims of this study were to propose functional roles of purinergic regulation of esophageal motility. An isolated segment of the rat esophagus was placed in an organ bath, and mechanical responses were recorded using a force transducer.

Objectives: Achalasia is an esophageal motility disorder of unknown etiology. However, no studies have determined the populations in which sleep problems occur and whether they are improved by peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM). We investigated the rate of sleep problems assessed by GERD-Q (AGQ) in achalasia patients, evaluated whether POEM improves these issues, and identified factors associated with sleep improvement after POEM.

Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is one of the most common digestive malignancies. Our previous studies revealed necroptosis-related lncRNA ENSG00000253385.1 was an independent prognostic factor for ESCC.

LINC01305 and LAD1 Co-Regulate CTTN and N-WASP Phosphorylation, Mediating Cytoskeletal Reorganization to Promote ESCC Metastasis.

Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is prone to metastasis and is a leading cause of mortality. The cytoskeleton is closely related to cell morphology and movement; however, little research has been conducted on ESCC metastasis. In this study, we found that the anchoring filament protein ladinin 1 (LAD1) specifically binds to LINC01305 for co-regulating the level of modulating cortactin proteins (CTTN) and neuronal Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein (N-WASP) phosphorylation, which mediates cytoskeletal reorganization and affects the metastasis of ESCC cells.

The latest Chicago Classification of esophageal motility disorders categorizes esophageal hypomotility disorders (EHD) into absent contractility (AC) and ineffective esophageal motility (IEM). While these disorders are commonly associated with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), they are not pathognomonic. To improve diagnostic accuracy, provocative maneuvers during high-resolution esophageal manometry (HRM) -such as multiple rapid swallows (MRS) and single solid swallows (SSS) -have been introduced.
