Pulmonary Circulation, 2020 Lung ischemia–reperfusion injury (LIRI) is a common clinical concern. As the injury occurs, the pulmonary afferent nerves play a key role in regulating respiratory functions under pathophysiological conditions.

TRPV1 marks synaptic segregation of multiple convergent afferents at the rat medial solitary tract nucleus. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 TRPV1 receptors are expressed on most but not all central terminals of cranial visceral afferents in the caudal solitary tract nucleus (NTS). TRPV1 is associated with unmyelinated C-fiber afferents.

Mechanisms of sensorineural cell damage, death and survival in the cochlea. [PDF]
, 2015 The majority of acquired hearing loss, including presbycusis, is caused by irreversible damage to the sensorineural tissues of the cochlea. This article reviews the intracellular mechanisms that contribute to sensorineural damage in the cochlea, as well ...

Visual and Electrosensory Circuits of the Diencephalon in Mormyrids [PDF]
, 1990 Mormyrids are one of two groups of teleost fishes known to have evolved electroreception, and the concomitant neuroanatomical changes have confounded the interpretation of many of their brain areas in a comparative context, e.g., the diencephalon, where ...

Modulation of gastrointestinal vagal neurocircuits by hyperglycemia
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2013 Glucose sensing within autonomic neurocircuits is critical for the effective integration and regulation of a variety of physiological homeostatic functions including the co-ordination of vagally-mediated reflexes regulating gastrointestinal functions ...

Purinergic mechanosensory transduction and visceral pain [PDF]
, 2009 In this review, evidence is presented to support the hypothesis that mechanosensory transduction occurs in tubes and sacs and can initiate visceral pain.

State Estimation in the Cerebellum [PDF]
, 2008 An exciting hypothesis about the cerebellum is that its role is one of state estimation—a process that combines afferent copies of motor commands with afferent sensory signals to produce a representation of the current status of the peripheral motor ...

Visceral Afferent Pathways and Functional Brain Imaging
The Scientific World Journal, 2003 The application of functional imaging to study painful sensations has generated considerable interest regarding insight into brain dysfunction that may be responsible for functional pain such as that suffered in patients with irritable bowel syndrome ...

Modulation of Neurally Mediated Vasodepression and Bradycardia by Electroacupuncture through Opioids in Nucleus Tractus Solitarius. [PDF]
, 2018 Stimulation of vagal afferent endings with intravenous phenylbiguanide (PBG) causes both bradycardia and vasodepression, simulating neurally mediated syncope.
