Refractory Nausea and Vomiting Due to Central Nervous System Injury: A Focused Review

Life
The area postrema (AP) is a circumventricular organ (CVO) at the base of the fourth ventricle. It has a crucial role in regulating nausea and vomiting due to its unique blood–brain barrier (BBB)-permeability and extensive neural connectivity.

Area postrema excites and inhibits sympathetic-related neurons in rostral ventrolateral medulla in rabbit

, 1994
This study investigated the effects of area postrema stimulation on the activity of cardiovascular-related neurons in the rostral ventrolateral medulla and determined whether the effects were mediated by cell bodies.

Hiccups, severe vomiting and longitudinally extensive transverse myelitis in a patient with prostatic adenocarcinoma and Aquaporin-4 antibodies

, 2021
Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) is not defined as a classical paraneoplastic neurological syndrome, however there are growing evidences that NMOSD may be rarely associated with cancer.

Characteristics of Neuromyelitis Optica in Young Mexican Patients

Sclerosis
Background: Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) is an autoimmune demyelinating disease with important disability accumulation. Early-onset NMOSD, defined as disease onset before age 50, exhibits distinct clinical characteristics compared to ...

Role of alpha-adrenergic mechanisms on responses to area postrema stimulation and circulating vasopressin

, 1993
This study evaluated the role of catecholamines in the nucleus tractus solitarius (NTS) on the inhibition of renal sympathetic nerve activity (RSNA) due to direct electrical stimulation of the area postrema. In addition, the effects of catecholaminergic

Effects of area postrema stimulation on neurons of the nucleus of the solitary tract

, 1991
Previous studies have suggested that neurons of the area postrema may modulate cardiovascular function through an interaction at the level of the nucleus of the solitary tract (NTS).

Area postrema mediates tumor effects on food intake, body weight, and learned aversions

, 1985
Growth of a Leydig cell [LTW (m)] tumor in rats is associated with the development of significant hypophagia and severe aversions to the available diet. Lesions of the area postrema and nearby caudal medial area of the solitary tract were found to block

Neurons in area postrema mediate vasopressin-induced enhancement of the baroreflex

, 1990
Intravenous infusion of arginine vasopressin (AVP) has been shown to enhance baroreflex sensitivity, and this enhancement is dependent on the integrity of the area postrema.

Area Postrema: A Unique Regulator of Cardiovascular Function

, 1992
The area postrema, which does not have a blood-brain barrier, can sense changes in levels of blood-borne hormones. This circumventricular organ plays an important role in animal models of hypertension, recovery from hemorrhage, control of baroreflexes ...
