VISCERAL PERCEPTION Visceral perception: inflammatory and non-inflammatory mediators
Visceral hypersensitivity is currently the most widely accepted mechanism responsible for abdominal pain. Inflammatory mediators are known to sensitise primary afferents and to recruit silent nociceptors. Recent evidence suggests that non-inflammatory mediators also have the potential to trigger visceral pain. This sequence of events may constitute part of an alerting system which prompts the c...
متن کاملVISCERAL PERCEPTION Visceral perception: sensory transduction in visceral afferents and nutrients
The possible mechanisms that may be involved in nutrient detection in the wall of the gastrointestinal tract are reviewed. There is strong functional and electrophysiological evidence that both intrinsic and extrinsic primary afferent neurones mediate mechanoand chemosensitive responses in the gastrointestinal tract. This review focuses on the extrinsic afferent pathways as these are the ones t...

متن کاملVISCERAL PERCEPTION Centrally acting agents and visceral sensitivity
The evidence relating to the site and mechanism of action of “centrally acting” agents which may affect visceral sensitivity is reviewed. Antidepressant drugs such as amitriptyline as well as the newer selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors are thought to act at the level of the CNS. Opiates, including morphine as well as compounds such as trimebutine or fedotozine designed for therapeutic use...
