Vagal and spinal sensory endings in the wall of the hepatic portal and superior mesenteric
veins (PMV) provide the brain with chemosensory information important for energy balance …

Previous investigations have provided evidence that the activity of parasympathetic efferent
neurons in the dorsal motor nucleus of the vagus (DMNV) may be influenced by either vagal …

The nucleus tractus solitarius (NTS) receives subdiaphragmatic visceral sensory information
via vagal A-or C-fibers. We have recently shown that, in contrast to cardiovascular NTS …

The neural gut-brain axis consists of viscerosensory and autonomic motor neurons
innervating the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. Sensory neurons transmit nutrient-related and non …

Abstract Effects of hepatoportal osmo-receptive (or sodium-receptive) afferents on neurons
within the dorsal motor nucleus of the vagus (DMV) were investigated electrophysiologically …

Enteric viscerofugal neurons are mechanosensory interneurons that form the afferent limb of
intestino-intestinal reflexes involving prevertebral sympathetic neurons. Fast synaptic inputs …

The hepatic branch of the vagus nerve has been implicated as an important source of
afferent input controlling both physiological and behavioral homeostasis. In addition, it is …

Intestinofugal afferent neurones (IFANs) are a unique subset of myenteric ganglion
neurones that regulate normal gastrointestinal function. The IFANs relaying …

Previous studies demonstrated that strain H129 of herpes simplex virus-1 undergoes
anterograde transneuronal transport in mice and primates after peripheral or central …

Sympathetic preganglionic neurons (SPNs) may be organized topographically within the
spinal cord for selective control of visceral organs. We used a recombinant herpes simplex …
