In the present study, the researchers carried out a large - scale analysis of sympathetic nerve cells, from which they were able to demonstrate that there are many different types of sympathetic neurons and that the different types are associated with a particular functions.

Not exact matches

These data represent evidence that at least a portion of the circulating dopamine - β - hydroxylase activity arises from sympathetic nerve terminals.

Treatment of rats with 6 - hydroxydopamine, a drug which destroys sympathetic nerve terminals, leads to a decrease in serum dopamine - β - hydroxylase activity.

Sympathetic nerves originate inside the vertebral column, toward the middle of the spinal cord in the intermediolateral cell column (or lateral horn), beginning at the first thoracic segment of the spinal cord and are thought to extend to the second or third lumbar segments.

«Too little sodium can also increase sympathetic nerve activity, which raises the risk of heart attacks, and boost the secretion of aldosterone, a hormone produced by the adrenal gland that is bad for the cardiovascular system.»

Immature sympathetic neurons respond to NGF with a burst of metabolic activity that provides the material necessary for the growth of the nerve fiber and the manufacture of molecules of neurotransmitter.

Rather it seemed the tumor was releasing some chemical factor that was in turn inducing the remarkable growth of the sympathetic ganglia and the exuberant branching of their nerve fibers.

Apparently the NGF injected into the brain diffused through the motor and sensory roots of the spinal cord and reached the sympathetic chain ganglia flanking the cord, where it induced the outgrowth of nerve fibers.

This finding implies that the tip of a growing sympathetic nerve fiber elongates along a diffusion gradient of NGF released by the target organ.

Studies conducted by Hendry at the Australian National University and by K. Stockel and H. Thoenen at the Basel Institute for Immunology have demonstrated that NGF is taken up at the terminal nerve endings of the sympathetic fibers and transported back to the neuronal cell body along the axon.

This ability of NGF to sustain sympathetic neurons in culture has since made possible some ingenious and revealing experiments on neuronal differentiation [see «The Chemical Differentiation of Nerve Cells.»

He wanted to see how sensory and sympathetic ganglia, sending out their nerve fibers to these peripheral «fields of innervation,» would adjust to the different dimensions and configurations of the foreign organs.

The blood pressure probably because your sympathetic fight or flight nerves has activated inflammation coz of the virus.

Torea Rodriguez: Yeah, I look for all sorts of different ways to simulate vagus nerve when trying to heal autoimmunity because so many of us get kinda stuck in the cycle of the sympathetic side of the nervous system and it's very hard to start to retrain the body to start activating the parasympathetic side.

This pose stimulates the adrenal glands, opens the chest, and creates the chinlock of Jalandara Bandha, which stimulates the vagus nerve, calming the sympathetic nervous system.

Second, cryotherapy may calm the sympathetic (fight or flight) nervous system and slow nerve conduction as well as increase parasympathetic response.Third, cryotherapy may mitigate the release of inflammatory mediators and creatinine kinase, a product of muscle breakdown.
