Glomus vagale masquerading as a carotid body tumor: A diagnostic surprise – A Case Report [PDF]
Background Glomus vagale tumors are rare paragangliomas that arise along the vagus nerve, typically within the parapharyngeal space. Their clinical presentation often involves symptoms of vagus nerve dysfunction, such as hoarseness, dysphagia, or ...

Intracellular calcium release activates carotid body afferents by fentanyl [PDF]
We recently reported [Peng YJ, Nanduri J, Wang N, Xie Z, Fox AP, Prabhakar NR. Function (Oxf) 6: zqaf020, 2025] that fentanyl activates carotid body (CB) afferents via kappa opioid receptors (KORs), while CB denervation exacerbates, coadministration of ...

Genetic map of the carotid body stem cell niche with focus on the O2-sensing chemoreceptor cell lineage [PDF]
Adaptive homeostatic responses to oxygen (O2) deficiency (hypoxia) are essential for survival. The prototypical acute O2-sensing organ is the carotid body (CB), a neural crest-derived tissue with chemoreceptor glomus cells that express hypoxia-inhibited ...

Tissue-specific mitochondrial HIGD1C promotes oxygen sensitivity in carotid body chemoreceptors
Mammalian carotid body arterial chemoreceptors function as an early warning system for hypoxia, triggering acute life-saving arousal and cardiorespiratory reflexes. To serve this role, carotid body glomus cells are highly sensitive to decreases in oxygen
