Experimental environment improves the reliability of short-latency afferent inhibition.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2023

Experimentally Induced Bladder Permeability Evokes Bladder Afferent Hypersensitivity in the Absence of Inflammation

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2020
Interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS) is a chronic urological condition characterised by urinary urgency, frequency and pelvic pain, that significantly impacts the quality of life for ∼5% of women.

elPBN neurons regulate rVLM activity through elPBN-rVLM projections during activation of cardiac sympathetic afferent nerves. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The external lateral parabrachial nucleus (elPBN) within the pons and rostral ventrolateral medulla (rVLM) contributes to central processing of excitatory cardiovascular reflexes during stimulation of cardiac sympathetic afferent nerves (CSAN).

The therapeutic promise of ATP antagonism at P2X3 receptors in respiratory & urological disorders

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2013
A sensory role for ATP was proposed long before general acceptance of its extracellular role. ATP activates & sensitizes signal transmission at multiple sites along the sensory axis, across multiple synapses. P2X & P2Y receptors mediate ATP modulation of

Involvement of TRPV1 Channels in Energy Homeostasis

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2018
The ion channel TRPV1 is involved in a wide range of processes including nociception, thermosensation and, more recently discovered, energy homeostasis.

Altered Vagal Signaling and Its Pathophysiological Roles in Functional Dyspepsia

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2022
The vagus nerve is crucial in the bidirectional communication between the gut and the brain. It is involved in the modulation of a variety of gut and brain functions.

T Cell Migration from Inflamed Skin to Draining Lymph Nodes Requires Intralymphatic Crawling Supported by ICAM-1/LFA-1 Interactions. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
T cells are the most abundant cell type found in afferent lymph, but their migration through lymphatic vessels (LVs) remains poorly understood. Performing intravital microscopy in the murine skin, we imaged T cell migration through afferent LVs in vivo ...

Excitatory and inhibitory synaptic mechanisms at the first stage of integration in the electroreception system of the shark

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2014
High impulse rate in afferent nerves is a common feature in many sensory systems that serve to accommodate a wide dynamic range. However, the first stage of integration should be endowed with specific properties that enable efficient handling of the ...

A Human Sensory Pathway Connecting the Foot to Ipsilateral Face That Partially Bypasses the Spinal Cord

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2019
Human sensory transmission from limbs to brain crosses and ascends through the spinal cord. Yet, descriptions exist of ipsilateral sensory transmission as well as transmission after spinal cord transection.

Primary Afferent Depolarization and Frequency Processing in Auditory Afferents [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Neuroscience, 2010
Presynaptic inhibition is a widespread mechanism modulating the efficiency of synaptic transmission and in sensory pathways is coupled to primary afferent depolarizations. Axonal terminals of bush-cricket auditory afferents received 2–5 mV graded depolarizing inputs, which reduced the amplitude of invading spikes and indicated presynaptic inhibition ...
