Meanings of afferent nerve fiber in inglés

Based on structural characteristics we identified four types of vagal afferent nerve fiber terminals in the trachea.

In contrast, electrophysiological studies concluded that the vagal afferent nerve fibers also densely innervate mucosa in more distal esophagus.

The vestibular system relays information about head position via afferent nerve fibers to the brain in the form of action potentials.

Gastric functions are controlled by local and hormonal mediators as well as by viscero- afferent nerve fibers and by efferents from the central nervous system.

This sensitization can be reproduced in the guinea pig and is most likely mediated by the esophageal afferent nerve fibers carried by the vagus nerves.
