Abnormal enteric nervous system organization and gastrointestinal motility in mice with valproic acid-induced neural tube defects
ENS organization and GI motility are disrupted in mouse embryos with a VPA-induced NTD. This has important implications for our understanding of neurogenic bowel in central nervous system diseases such as spina bifida.
