WebMD's Eyes Anatomy Pages provide a detailed picture and definition of the human eyes. Learn about their function and problems that can affect the eyes.
Gross Anatomy The vagus nerve is the longest cranial nerve. It contains motor and sensory fibers and, because it passes through the neck and thorax to the abdomen, has the widest distribution in the body. It contains somatic and visceral afferent fibers, as well as general and special ...
1B). This nerve is one of the few examples of sympathetic afferents with relatively long preganglionic and short postganglionic fibers, and noradrenergic cell bodies are located in the vicinity of the vas (Sjöstrand, 1965). In rats, the hypogastric nerve innervates bilaterally, so that ...
Anatomy. The sciatic nerve arises from the L4 through S3 roots of the sacral plexus, passes through the pelvis, and becomes superficial at the lower margin of the gluteus maximus muscle. It then descends into the lower extremity in the posterior aspect of the thigh, supplying sensory innervation...

Regarding the mechanisms by which peripheral nerves regulate salamander limb regeneration, diffusible nerve factors were shown to cross the filter and promote blastema cell proliferation.29In response to initial nerve injury signals, SCs undergo phenotypic changes, downregulating myelin proteins, such as ...
Phosphorylated MAP kinase ERK 1/2 (pERK) immunolabelling was performed on sections from the different experimental groups using a DAKO Omnis auto-stainer. The primary antibody (pERK 1/2, 1:800, MAB4370, Cell Signalling Technology, Genesearch, Qld) diluted in antibody Diluent (S0809, Agilent ...
where t is the time of an action potential in the VN (i.e., preganglionic cell) and t0is the time of the previous action potential in the ICSN cell (i.e., post-ganglionic cell) (in ms, Additional file1: Fig. 12). With each vagal event, a random number generator (scope _...
As used herein, the term “affected cell” refers to a cell of a subject afflicted with a disease, injury, or disorder, which affected cell has an altered phenotype relative to a subject not afflicted with a disease or disorder. Cells or tissue are “affected” by a disease, injury, or...
