Significats de afferent pathway en anglès

The hepatic afferent pathway has been shown to be responsive to glucoprivic as well as lipoprivic stimuli.

It has been established that the liver, through the afferent pathway of the vagus nerve, can influence insulin secretion.

We investigated NGF gene transfer to the bladder and bladder afferent pathways for treating diabetic cystopathy.

Conclusions: The NGF gene may be transferred and expressed in the bladder and bladder afferent pathways using HSV vectors.

New afferent pathways have been discovered, as well as novel properties of previously known afferents such as the midbrain dopaminergic inputs.

Background & aims: Cerebral evoked potential (EP) responses to visceral stimulation represent a powerful method to assess visceral afferent pathways.

Some airway receptors mediate or influence cough through activation of vagal afferent pathways which converge on brain stem respiratory networks and of supramedullary centres.

The cortical activity responsible for hallucinations results from altered or reduced input into these regions, or a loss of ascending inhibition of their afferent pathways.

Recording of cerebral evoked responses (EP) allows the assessment of visceral afferent pathways and gut-brain communication, but the optimal stimulation parameters remain to be established.
