Descriptor plexo submucoso
Entry term(s) plexo de Meissner
Scope note: Una de las dos redes neurales ganglionares que, en conjunto, constituyen el sistema nervioso entérico. El plexo submucoso (de Meissner) se aloja en el tejido conjuntivo de la submucosa. Sus neuronas inervan el epitelio, los vasos sanguíneos, las células endocrinas, otros ganglios submucosos y los ganglios mientéricos, jugando un importante papel en la regulación iónica y el transporte de agua.

Scope note: One of two ganglionated neural networks which together form the enteric nervous system. The submucous (Meissner's) plexus is in the connective tissue of the submucosa. Its neurons innervate the epithelium, blood vessels, endocrine cells, other submucosal ganglia, and myenteric ganglia, and play an important role in regulating ion and water transport.
