For that reason the enteric nervous system has been called "the second brain."

The enteric nervous system has been described as a "second brain" for several reasons.

Another area of research is the enteric nervous system.

The independence is a function of the enteric nervous system's complexity.

They may also participate in the activation of the enteric nervous system.

After Langley died, scientists more or less forgot about the enteric nervous system.

Therefore, nature seems to have preserved the enteric nervous system as an independent circuit inside higher animals.

Another piece migrates to become the enteric nervous system.

In this triad, the enteric nervous system was seen as something of a tag-along to the other two.

Secretion by the previous cells is controlled by the enteric nervous system.

The digestive tract, or enteric nervous system alone contains millions of neurons.

Grass sickness is a polyneuropathy affecting the central, peripheral and enteric nervous systems.

The enteric nervous system has the capacity to alter its response depending on such factors as bulk and nutrient composition.

This device works by disrupting of the motility cycle or stimulating enteric nervous system.

The enteric nervous system can operate autonomously.

However, vertebrate studies show that when the vagus nerve is severed, the enteric nervous system continues to function.

These receptors sense "sweetness" on the tongue and sense glucose in the enteric nervous system.

Stimulation of the serotonin receptors increases acetylcholine release in the enteric nervous system.

The gut's brain, called the enteric nervous system, has more nerve cells than the central nervous system.

The inflammatory response influenced intestinal fluid transport partly via activation of the enteric nervous system.

Some groups remain true to their neural fate, generating many of the body's sensory nerves and the enteric nervous system that controls the gut.

By the early 80's, scientists had accepted the idea of the enteric nervous system and the role of neurotransmitters like serotonin in the gut.
