Resection of Extratemporal Paragangliomas Including Carotid Body and Glomus Vagale Tumors [PDF]
Paragangliomas, also known as glomus tumours or chemodectomas, are neuroendocrine tumours that originate from glomus cells in paraganglia. They are derived from the embryonal neural crest. The cells are part of the sympathetic nervous system and serve as

Cxs and Panx- hemichannels in peripheral and central chemosensing in mammals
Connexins (Cxs) and Pannexins (Panx) form hemichannels at the plasma membrane of animals. Despite their low open probability under physiological conditions, these hemichannels release signaling molecules (i.e., ATP, Glutamate, PGE2) to the extracellular ...

Carotid stiffness and physical activity in elderly : a short report of the SAPALDIA 3 cohort study [PDF]
Regular physical activity has been shown to reduce cardiovascular disease risk in the general population. While smaller studies in specified groups (highly trained versus untrained individuals) indicate a certain dose-dependent effect of physical ...

Fernando De Castro and the discovery of the arterial chemoreceptors
When De Castro entered the carotid body (CB) field, the organ was considered to be a small autonomic ganglion, a gland, a glomus or glomerulus, or a paraganglion.

Effect of hypoxia on intracellular pH of glomus cells cultured from cat and rat carotid bodies.
To test the hypothesis that hypoxia may induce cellular acidification during chemotransduction in the carotid body, we compared the effects of hypoxia and of extracellular acidosis on intracellular pH (pHi) of glomus cells cultured from rat and cat ...

Changes in Geometry and Hemodynamics After Carotid Endarterectomy
Background: Many studies on cerebral atherosclerosis and its treatment have been conducted over the past 60 years. Several modifications of open surgical treatment (carotid endarterectomy) have been proposed.

Chronic cobalt causes hypertrophy of glomus cells in the rat carotid body
We tested the hypothesis that chronic cobalt administration would induce carotid body cellular response along with polycythemia as found in chronic hypoxia if common oxygen-sensitive mechanisms were involved in the two instances.
