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 ...

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 ...

Current status and future directions of botulinum neurotoxins for targeting pain processing. [PDF]
, 2015 Current evidence suggests that botulinum neurotoxins (BoNTs) A1 and B1, given locally into peripheral tissues such as skin, muscles, and joints, alter nociceptive processing otherwise initiated by inflammation or nerve injury in animal models and humans.

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 ...

The Renal Nerves in Chronic Heart Failure: Afferent and Efferent Mechanisms
Frontiers in Physiology, 2015 The function of the renal nerves has been an area of scientific and medical interest for many years. The recent advent of a minimally invasive catheter-based method of renal denervation has renewed excitement in understanding the afferent and efferent ...

Sex-specific vagal and spinal modulation of breathing with chest compression.
PLoS ONE, 2020 Lung volume is modulated by sensory afferent feedback via vagal and spinal pathways. The purpose of this study was to systematically alter afferent feedback with and without a mechanical challenge (chest compression). We hypothesized that manipulation of

Flexor Reflex Decreases during Sympathetic Stimulation in Chronic Human Spinal Cord Injury [PDF]
, 2009 A better understanding of autonomic influence on motor reflex pathways in spinal cord injury is important to the clinical management of autonomic dysreflexia and spasticity in spinal cord injured patients.

Connections of the corpus cerebelli in the green sunfish and the common goldfish [PDF]
, 1988 Examination of the connections of the corpus cerebelli in one perciform (Lepomis cyanellus) and one cypriniform teleost (Carassius auratus) reveal that ipsilateral afferent connections in both species arise from an anterior group of nuclei in the ...
