Sensory nerves in adult rats regenerate and restore sensory function to the skin independently of endogenous NGF.
We have investigated the possible roles of NGF, and of impulse activity, in the regeneration of sensory nerves. Unexpectedly, the ability of crushed axons to regrow and to restore functional recovery of three sensory modalities in adult rat skin (A alpha-mediated touch, A delta-mediated mechanonociception, and C-fiber-mediated heat nociception) was totally unaffected by anti-NGF treatment. This...
متن کاملEndogenous NGF and nerve impulses regulate the collateral sprouting of sensory axons in the skin of the adult rat.
We have investigated the co-involvement of endogenous NGF and impulses in the collateral sprouting of cutaneous sensory nerves in adult rats, specifically the A delta-axons involved in mechanonociception and the C-fibers that mediate heat nociception. Their collateral sprouting was measured by the progressive expansion, respectively, of the behaviorally defined "pinch" and "heat" fields into su...
متن کاملSensory nerves and pancreatitis.
Sensory nerves are a kind of nerve that conduct afferent impulses from the periphery receptors to the central nervous system (CNS) and are able to release neuromediators from the activated peripheral endings. Sensory nerves are particularly important for microcirculatory response, and stimulation of pancreatic sensory nerves releases a variety of neuropeptides such as substance P (SP), calciton...
متن کاملPurines and sensory nerves.
P2X and P2Y nucleotide receptors are described on sensory neurons and their peripheral and central terminals in dorsal root, nodose, trigeminal, petrosal, retinal and enteric ganglia. Peripheral terminals are activated by ATP released from local cells by mechanical deformation, hypoxia or various local agents in the carotid body, lung, gut, bladder, inner ear, eye, nasal organ, taste buds, skin...
متن کاملEarly social isolation provokes electrophysiological and structural changes in cutaneous sensory nerves of adult male rats.
Sensory and social deprivation from the mother and littermates during early life disturbs the development of the central nervous system, but little is known about its effect on the development of the peripheral nervous system. To assess peripheral effects of early isolation, male rat pups were reared artificially in complete social isolation (AR); reared artificially with two same-age conspecif...
