In adults, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and functional dyspepsia (FD) are chronic conditions that often start during childhood. We investigated mucosal serotonin (5-HT) signalling in children with the idea that data from subjects with a shorter history may improve our understanding of underlying pathophysiological mechanisms. 98 children undergoing gastroscopy or colonoscopy were prospectively studied. Biopsy specimens were evaluated for inflammation, enterochromaffin cell numbers, 5-HT content, and mRNA levels for the synthetic enzyme, tryptophan hydroxylase 1 (TpH1) and the serotonin transporter (SERT) were assessed by quantitative real-time RT-PCR. Data from 12 children with IBS and 17 with FD were compared to age-matched controls (12 with rectal biopsies and 12 with gastric biopsies) and to subjects with organic disorders. In patients with FD, a small number of immune cells were observed in the gastric mucosa in half of the patients, but no abnormalities with respect of the 5-HT pathway were identified. In patients with IBS, no differences were detected between patients and controls regarding intraepithelial lymphocytes and CD3+ cells in the lamina propria although all patients exhibited at least a slight inflammatory infiltrate. In the IBS samples, higher 5-HT content (P<0.01) and lower SERT mRNA (P<0.05) were detected as compared to controls. Severe inflammation in the colonic mucosa had a high impact on 5-HT signalling with a significant decrease in EC cells (P<0.01) and 5-HT content (P<0.01) and a high SERT mRNA expression (P<0.01). These results confirm in children the role of 5-HT signalling in IBS and argue against such a role in FD.
