Our aim was to assess the\r\nusefulness of three-dimensional (3D) imaging by X-ray phase-contrast tomography in evaluating the\r\nENS of the human bowel.\r\nMaterial and methods: Myenteric ganglia were identified in full-thickness biopsies of the ileum and\r\ncolon by hematoxylin & eosin staining. A1-mm biopsy punch was taken from the paraffin blocks and\r\nplaced into a KaptonVR tube for subsequent tomographic investigation. The samples were scanned,\r\nwithout further preparation, using phase-contrast tomography at two different scales: overview scans\r\n(performed with laboratory setups), which allowed localization of the nervous tissue ( 1mm effective\r\nvoxel size); and high-resolution scans (performed with a synchrotron endstation), which imaged localized\r\nregions of 320x320x320 mm3 (176 nm effective voxel size).\r\nResults: The contrast allowed us to follow the shape and the size changes of the ganglia, as well as\r\nto study their cellular components together with the cells and cellular projections of the periganglional\r\nspace. Furthermore, it was possible to show the 3D network of the myenteric plexus and to quantify\r\nits volume within the samples.\r\nConclusions: Phase-contrast X-ray tomography can be applied for volume analyses of the human ENS\r\nand to study tissue components in unstained paraffin-embedded tissue biopsies. This technique could\r\npotentially be used to study disease mechanisms, and to compare healthy and diseased tissues in clinical\r\nresearch."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1080/00365521.2020.1815079"],["dc.identifier.pmid","32907418"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/80786"],["dc.identifier.url","https://mbexc.uni-goettingen.de/literature/publications/70"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","DOI Import GROB-399"],["dc.relation","EXC 2067: Multiscale Bioimaging"],["dc.relation.eissn","1502-7708"],["dc.relation.issn","0036-5521"],["dc.relation.orgunit","Institut für Röntgenphysik"],["dc.relation.workinggroup","RG Salditt (Structure of Biomolecular Assemblies and X-Ray Physics)"],["dc.rights","CC BY 3.0"],["dc.subject.gro","biomedical tomography"],["dc.title","3D analysis of the myenteric plexus of the human bowel by X-ray phase-contrast tomography – a future method?"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.subtype","original_ja"],["dc.type.version","published_version"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

The aim of this pilot study was to assess whether three-dimensional (3d) imaging of skin biopsies could be used to examine various tissue components in patients with gastrointestinal dysmotility.Material and methodsFour dysmotility patients of different etiology and two healthy volunteers were included. From each subject, two 3-mm punch skin biopsies were stained with antibodies against protein gene product 9.5 or evaluated as a whole with two X-ray phase-contrast computed tomography (CT) setups, a laboratory µCT setup and a dedicated synchrotron radiation nanoCT end-station.ResultsTwo patients had reduced IENFD, and two normal IENFD, compared with controls. µCT and X-ray phase-contrast holographic nanotomography scanned whole tissue specimens, with optional high-resolution scans revealing delicate structures, without differentiation of various fibers and cells. Irregular architecture of dermal fibers was observed in the patient with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome and the patient with idiopathic dysmotility showed an abundance of mesenchymal ground substance.Conclusions3d phase-contrast tomographic imaging may be useful to illustrate traits of connective tissue dysfunction in various organs and to demonstrate whether disorganized dermal fibers could explain organ dysfunction."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1111/srt.12974"],["dc.identifier.pmid","33022848"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/83598"],["dc.identifier.url","https://mbexc.uni-goettingen.de/literature/publications/82"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","DOI Import GROB-399"],["dc.relation","EXC 2067: Multiscale Bioimaging"],["dc.relation.eissn","1600-0846"],["dc.relation.issn","0909-752X"],["dc.relation.orgunit","Institut für Röntgenphysik"],["dc.relation.workinggroup","RG Salditt (Structure of Biomolecular Assemblies and X-Ray Physics)"],["dc.rights","CC BY-NC-ND 4.0"],["dc.subject.gro","biomedical tomography"],["dc.title","3d phase‐contrast nanotomography of unstained human skin biopsies may identify morphological differences in the dermis and epidermis between subjects"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.subtype","original_ja"],["dc.type.version","published_version"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]
