Abstract excerpt
Whilst much is known about the function and influence of vagal afferents on the mammalian upper gastrointestinal tract, the phenotypes of the different types of vagal afferent neurons innervating the jejunum is unknown. We have previously shown that spinal afferents supplying the jejunum are predominantly medium-sized sensory neurons that express specific combinations of transient receptor potential vanilloid...
