Dynamic GABAergic afferent modulation of AgRP neurons [PDF]
Nature Neuroscience, 2016 Agouti-related peptide (AgRP) neurons of the arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus (ARC) promote homeostatic feeding at times of caloric insufficiency, yet they are rapidly suppressed by food-related sensory cues before ingestion. Here we identify a highly selective inhibitory afferent to AgRP neurons that serves as a neural determinant of this rapid ...

Central and peripheral contributions of T-type calcium channels in pain
Molecular Brain, 2022 Chronic pain is a severely debilitating condition that reflects a long-term sensitization of signal transduction in the afferent pain pathway. Among the key players in this pathway are T-type calcium channels, in particular the Cav3.2 isoform. Because of

Projection neurons in lamina III of the rat spinal cord are selectively innervated by local dynorphin-containing excitatory neurons [PDF]
, 2012 Large projection neurons in lamina III of the rat spinal cord that express the neurokinin 1 receptor are densely innervated by peptidergic primary afferent nociceptors and more sparsely by low-threshold myelinated afferents. However, we know little about

Acid sensing by visceral afferent neurones [PDF]
Acta Physiologica, 2010 AbstractAcidosis in the gastrointestinal tract can be both a physiological and pathological condition. While gastric acid serves digestion and protection from pathogens, pathological acidosis is associated with defective acid containment, inflammation and ischaemia.

Neurochemical Properties of Dental Primary Afferent Neurons [PDF]
Experimental Neurobiology, 2012 The long belief that dental primary afferent (DPA) neurons are entirely composed of nociceptive neurons has been challenged by several anatomical and functional investigations. In order to characterize non-nociceptivepopulation among DPA neurons, retrograde transport fluorescent dye was placed in upper molars of rats and immunohistochemical detection ...

Direct and indirect regulation of spinal cord Ia afferent terminal formation by the γ-Protocadherins
Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2011 The Pcdh-γ gene cluster encodes 22 protocadherin adhesion molecules that interact as homophilic multimers and critically regulate synaptogenesis and apoptosis of interneurons in the developing spinal cord. Unlike interneurons, the two primary components
