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.

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

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 ...

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 ...

Afferent connections of the valvula cerebelli in two teleosts, the common goldfish and the green sunfish [PDF]
, 1989 The afferent connections of the valvula cerebelli were examined in one cypriniform teleost (Carassius auratus) and one perciform teleost (Lepomis cyanellus) with the use of horseradish peroxidase as a retrograde tracer.

Differential regulation of bladder pain and voiding function by sensory afferent populations revealed by selective optogenetic activation [PDF]
, 2010 Bladder-innervating primary sensory neurons mediate reflex-driven bladder function under normal conditions, and contribute to debilitating bladder pain and/or overactivity in pathological states. The goal of this study was to examine the respective roles
