Auerbach S Plexus, Myenteric Plexus

Auerbach's Plexus (Auerbach S Plexus), also known as the Myenteric Plexus, is a collection of autonomic nerve fibers arising from the mesenteric plexuses. It is located between the circular and longitudinal layers of the muscular layer of the intestine.

Auerbach's plexus innervates the intestine and controls its peristalsis. Peristalsis is the rhythmic contraction of the intestinal muscles that moves its contents along the digestive tract. Auerbach's plexus coordinates these contractions, allowing food and waste to move through the intestines.

Thus, Auerbach's plexus plays an important role in the regulation of intestinal motor function. Damage to this nerve plexus can impair peristalsis and lead to constipation or other bowel problems.

Auerbach's plexus (Auerbach S Plexus) and myenteric plexus (Myenteric Plexus) are two important components of the intestinal nervous system that control its motor function and ensure optimal functioning of the digestive tract.

Auerbach's plexus is located between the circular and longitudinal layers of the muscular layer of the intestine. It is a collection of autonomic nerve fibers arising from the mesenteric plexuses. Innervates the intestines and controls intestinal motility, that is, it regulates the contractions of the muscles of the intestinal wall necessary for the movement of food masses through the intestines. Auerbach's plexus also plays an important role in regulating the secretion of fluid and electrolytes in the intestine.

The myenteric nerve plexus (Myenteric Plexus) is located between the longitudinal and circular muscle fibers of the intestinal wall and consists of transversely oriented nerve fibers. It controls contractions of the intestinal muscles and ensures coordination between the muscle layers of the intestine. The myenteric plexus also regulates the secretion of fluid and electrolytes in the intestines and controls the passage of food masses through the intestines.

Both plexuses work closely with each other to ensure optimal bowel function. Disruption of these plexuses can lead to various diseases of the gastrointestinal tract, such as constipation, diarrhea, colitis, etc.

In general, Auerbach's plexus and the myenteric plexus are important components of the intestinal nervous system that are essential for optimal function of the digestive tract. Their interaction and coordination play a crucial role in ensuring proper peristalsis, controlling the excretion of fluid and electrolytes and maintaining normal bowel function in general.

The plexus of nerve ganglia and fibers of Auerbach and the vagus nerves is the most numerous system of autonomic innervation of the intestine. They are located in the thickness of the striated muscular wall of the intestine within the muscle layer and under it. This deep extra-organ nerve formation is located on both sides of the human intestines and runs along their course along the entire length of the intestine from its beginning to the end, forming a sac-like shape. This structure is almost surrounded by a skin layer of the peritoneum. On the lateral surface of the peritoneum near the transverse colon it is partially covered by a nerve plexus. Its upper section goes around the common iliac plexus
