Nutrients activate distinct patterns of small-intestinal enteric neurons - Nature Calcium imaging of the mouse jejunum shows that specific nutrients in the intestinal lumen are detected by epithelial cells, which activate specific sets of enteric neurons through a serotonin-mediated signalling process.

Ecstatic to share our paper on nutrient signaling in the #EntericNervousSystem published in Nature! 🧪

We explored how neurons in the gut respond to basic nutrients that we typically ingest and tested whether they can distinguish between different nutrients 🔬
