Кафедра факультетской терапии ВолГМУ

Abstract

Examination of the 67 patients with the functional gastrointestinal disorders (FGID) by means of ELISA test demonstrated a decrease in endogenous serotonin and melatonin level with the simultaneous elevation of inflammat ory cytokine concentration. Revealed neuroendocrine and cytokine changes suggest contribution of neurohumoral and cytokine systems in development of FGID.

Keywords
