MODULATION OF SYNAPTIC TRANSMISSION AT THE NUCLEUS TRACTUS SOLITARIUS
The caudal nucleus tractus solitarius (cNTS) is the key recipient of the primary afferents from visceral sensory neurons and also an important site that processes and integrates gastrointestinal, cardiovascular and respiratory functions. Glutamate and gamma-aminobutyric acid are the major …

Functional Identification of Nucleus Tractus Solitarius (NTS) Barosensitive Neurons: Effect of Chronic Intermittent Hypoxia (CIH)
… work that CIH-induced the cell loss in the nucleus ambiguus (NA), we conclude that CIH attenuates the functions of NA, whereas enhances the NTS functions to compensate for the loss of function in NA

Hindbrain Serotonin Neurons Activate 5-HT1A Receptors in the Nucleus Tractus Solitarius (NTS) to Modulate Sympathetic and Ventilatory Recovery Following Hypotensive Hemorrhage
… the IVth cerebroventricle in the vicinity of the nucleus tractus solitarius (NTS) rapidly increases normal perfusion pressure following hemorrhage in unanaesthetized rats. This result indicates that 8-OH-DPAT may act in the NTS to mediate its effect. Studies have also shown that serotonin neurons …

Activation of 5-HT1A Receptors in the Nucleus Tractus Solitarius Facilitate Ventilatory Responses to Hypoxic Hypercapnia and Promote Sympathetic Recovery Following Hypotensive Hemorrhage
… Lesion of serotonergic nerve terminals in the nucleus tractus solitarius (NTS) attenuates ventilatory and sympathetic responses to hemorrhage, and peripheral chemoreceptor stimulation. Thus, we propose that serotonin is released in the NTS during hemorrhage to activate 5-HT<sub>1A</sub> …

Peptide Corrination for the Mitigation of Nausea and Emesis in the Treatment of Type 2 Diabetes
… expressed withinthe area postrema (AP) and the nucleus tractus solitarius (NTS), regions known to influence nausea and emesis. Prevention of such effects were achieved via corrination, covalent attachment to vitamin B12 (B12) or other corrin constructs, of GLP glucagon-like peptide-one (GLP-1) …

THE NUCLEUS TRACTUS SOLITARIUS (NTS) AT THE LEVEL OF THE MEDULLA OBLOCATA IS THE FIRST AND MOST IMPORTANT CENTER OF THE BARORECEPTOR REFLEX AND ONE OF THE LOCI WHERE THE CATECHOLAMINES REGULATE CENTRALLY THE LEVELS OF THE ARTERIAL BLOOD PRESSURE. PREVIOUS RESEARCH ON ANESTHETIZED ANIMALS CONCLUDED …

Characterization of Tyrosine Hydroxylase-Positive Neurons Projections from the Paraventricular Nucleus of Hypothalamus to Hindbrain Autonomic Regulatory Centers
… projections of TH neurons in the paraventricular nucleus hypothalamus (PVN) to key parasympathetic and sympathetic premotor nuclei in medulla oblongata, including the nucleus tractus solitarius (NTS), dorsal motor nucleus of the vagus (DMV), and rostral ventrolateral medulla (RVLM), remains …

Neurobehavioral Mechanisms Contributing To Alterations In Food Intake Driven By Caudal Hindbrain Acting Signals
… hubs that modulate this control, including the nucleus tractus solitarius (NTS) in the caudal hindbrain. As such, this dissertation investigates the neurobehavioral mechanisms contributing to alterations in food intake driven by caudal hindbrain acting signals as well as investigations of …

Central Neural Cardiorespiratory Areas in Exercise
… the posterior hypothalamus, periaqueductal grey, nucleus tractus solitarius and rostral ventrolateral medulla, all of which are known cardiorespiratory control areas. These results strongly suggest that regular physical activity changes the pattern and extent of activation in the brain. In study …

Exercise Pressor Reflex Dysfunction in Hypertension
… of working muscle, respectively, project to the nucleus tractus solitarius (NTS) in the brainstem. Within this nucleus, nitric oxide (NO) is produced from L-arginine via the enzymatic activity of nitric oxide synthase (NOS). Brainstem NO has been shown to modulate exercise pressor reflex-driven …

The use of the Fos technique to investigate the physiology and pharmacology of trigeminovascular sensation
… II outer (IIo) of CM, C1 and C2, and the caudal nucleus tractus solitarius (cNTS) of CM and lamina X of C1 and C2 are two anatomically- and functionally-continuous nuclei which receive sensory input from dural structures and which are activated following stimulation of these structures. 2. Fos …
