BACKGROUND

Transient lower esophageal sphincter relaxations (TLESRs) are the predominant mechanisms underlying gastro-esophageal reflux. TLESRs are mediated by a vago-vagal reflex, which can be blocked by interaction with metabotropic Glutamate Receptor 5 (mGluR5), γ-aminobutyric acid type B (GABA(B)), γ-aminobutyric acid type A (GABA(A)), and cannabinoid (CB) receptors. However, the distribution of these receptors in the neural pathway underlying the triggering of TLESRs has not been evaluated in humans.

METHODS

Using immunohistochemistry, we investigated the distribution of mGluR5, GABA(A), GABA(B), CB1, and CB2 receptors in the human nodose ganglion, the brain stem, and the myenteric plexus of the esophagus.

RESULTS

MGluR5, GABA(B), CB1, and CB2 receptors are abundantly expressed in neurons of the myenteric plexus of the LES, nodose ganglion cell bodies and nerve fibers, the dorsal motor nucleus, and nucleus of the solitary tract in the brain stem. GABA(A) receptors are expressed in the same regions except in the nodose ganglion and myenteric plexus of the LES.

CONCLUSIONS

Human mGluR5, GABA(A,B), and CB(1,2) receptors are abundantly expressed along the vago-vagal neural pathway and involved in the triggering of TLESRs. These findings are not only in line with the central side effects observed during treatment with reflux inhibitors such as GABA(B) receptor agonists and mGluR5 antagonists, but also suggest that peripherally acting compounds may be effective.
