enteric plexus myenteric nerve plexus plexus of unmyelinated nerve fibers and postganglionic autonomic cell bodies lying in the muscular coat of the esophagus, stomach and intestines that communicate with the submucosal, subserosal and enteric plexuses[MP][MP:0010801]. FMA:63252 BAMS:myp uberon MA:0001148 NCIT:C52748 EMAPA:32847 Auberbachs plexus note that FMA uses Meissner's plexus as a synonym, rather than separate class plexus nervosus submucosus Auberbach plexus Auberbach's plexus MESH:D009197 GAID:798 Remak's plexus One of two ganglionated neural networks which together form the enteric nervous system. The myenteric (Auerbach's) plexus is located between the longitudinal and circular muscle layers of the gut. Its neurons project to the circular muscle, to other myenteric ganglia, to submucosal ganglia, or directly to the epithelium, and play an important role in regulating and patterning gut motility.
