Identification of atropine-and P2X1 receptor antagonist-reistant, neurogenic contractions of the urinary bladder [PDF]

, 2007
Acetylcholine and ATP are excitatory cotransmitters in parasympathetic nerves. We used P2X1 receptor antagonists to further characterize the purinergic component of neurotransmission in isolated detrusor muscle of guinea pig urinary bladder.

Is Dysphagia in Multiple System Atrophy Responsive to Levodopa? Results from a Retrospective Study

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Dysphagia remains a major clinical concern in multiple system atrophy (MSA), and so far, lacks relevant treatment options. Objective To systematically assess levodopa‐responsiveness of dysphagia in MSA. Methods 19 MSA‐patients underwent endoscopic swallowing evaluation in Off‐ and On‐state, following an adapted FEES‐levodopa‐test ...

Circadian Immunity and Vascular Inflammation in Cardiovascular Disease Chronotherapy Windows: Time for a Re‐Assessment

Med Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Circadian rhythms orchestrate cardiovascular physiology by regulating immune and inflammatory pathways. Disruption of these rhythms profoundly alters vascular homeostasis, thereby promoting the onset and progression of cardiovascular diseases (CVD).

Right Temporoparietal Junction Involvement in Autonomic Responses to the Suffering of Others: A Preliminary Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Study. [PDF]

, 2020
Functional neuroimaging studies have emphasized distinct networks for social cognition and affective aspects of empathy. However, studies have not considered whether substrates of social cognition, such as the right temporoparietal junction (TPJ), play a

The autonomic nervous system in atrial fibrillation—pathophysiology and non-invasive assessment

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine
The autonomic nervous system plays a crucial role in atrial fibrillation pathophysiology. Parasympathetic hyperactivity result in a shortening of the action potential duration, a reduction of the conduction wavelength, and as such facilitates reentry in ...

Sympathetic Shift and Insular Alteration: Unravelling the Link Between Anxiety and Heart Rate Variability in Parkinson's Disease

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Anxiety and autonomic dysfunction are frequent non‐motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease (PD). Their relationship, as well as the neural mechanisms underlying this relationship, remain unexplored. Objectives We aimed to investigate the relationship between cardiovascular functions and anxiety in PD and the structural neural changes ...

Leptin Controls Parasympathetic Wiring of the Pancreas during Embryonic Life

Cell Reports, 2016
The autonomic nervous system plays a critical role in glucose metabolism through both its sympathetic and parasympathetic branches, but the mechanisms that underlie the development of the autonomic innervation of the pancreas remain poorly understood ...

Early Autonomic Burden in Prodromal Parkinson's Disease Predicts Cognitive Impairment

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Autonomic dysfunction is a known contributor to cognitive impairment in Parkinson's disease (PD), but its impact during prodromal stage is unknown. Objective The aim was to determine whether early autonomic burden predicts incident cognitive impairment in prodromal PD.

Baroreflex and autonomic responses to two equated isometric resistance exercise protocols in females

Revista Brasileira de Cineantropometria e Desempenho Humano
Different resistance exercise sessions/set configurations seem to lead to distinct hemodynamic, baroreflex, and autonomic responses. Nevertheless, the baroreflex and autonomic reactivities to an equated impulse-to-rest ratio (I:R) isometric exercise ...
