Challenges to the Vestibular System in Space: How the Brain Responds and Adapts to Microgravity
Frontiers in Neural Circuits, 2021 In the next century, flying civilians to space or humans to Mars will no longer be a subject of science fiction. The altered gravitational environment experienced during space flight, as well as that experienced following landing, results in impaired ...

Current Hypertension Reports, 2016 The etiology of hypertension, a critical public health issue affecting one in three US adults, involves the integration of the actions of multiple organ systems, including the renal sympathetic nerves. The renal sympathetic nerves, which are comprised of both afferent (sensory input) and efferent (sympathetic outflow) arms, have emerged as a major ...

Divergent Conceptualization of Embodied Emotions in the English and Chinese Languages
Brain Sciences, 2022 Traditional cognitive linguistic theories acknowledge that human emotions are embodied, yet they fail to distinguish the dimensions that reflect the direction of neural signaling between the brain and body. Differences exist across languages and cultures

Exercise intolerance and fatigue in chronic heart failure: is there a role for group III/IV afferent feedback? [PDF]
, 2020 Exercise intolerance and early fatiguability are hallmark symptoms of chronic heart failure. While the malfunction of the heart is certainly the leading cause of chronic heart failure, the patho-physiological mechanisms of exercise intolerance in these ...

Cardiac vagal afferent neurotransmission in health and disease: review and knowledge gaps
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2023 The meticulous control of cardiac sympathetic and parasympathetic tone regulates all facets of cardiac function. This precise calibration of cardiac efferent innervation is dependent on sensory information that is relayed from the heart to the central ...

Bronchopulmonary afferent nerves [PDF]
Respirology, 2003 Abstract: Vagal afferent nerves are the primary communication pathways between the bronchopulmonary system and the central nervous system. Input from airway afferent nerves to the CNS is integrated in the brainstem and ultimately leads to sensations and various reflex outputs.
