Abstract:

The current knowledge of the visual pathways in primates includes the patterns of projection from the retina through the dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus (dLGN) to the striate cortex (V1) and the extra-striate projections towards the dorsal and ventral streams. Cells with short wavelength sensitive cone (S-cone) inputs in the dLGN have been studied extensively in New World marmosets but not in Old World macaques. This thesis presents results from studies in the macaque monkey which are more relevant to humans since humans are closer in evolution to Old World than New World monkeys.<br>The spa

Abstract:

A study was performed on decerebrate ferrets to define the contribution of vagal afferent non-myelinated fibres to the baroreceptor heart rate reflex produced by bolus i.v. injection of phenylephrine, using capsaicin as a selective C fibre blocker. Capsaicin blocked pulmonary chemoreflex substantially without any effects on bradycardia evoked by electrical stimulation of vagal efferent fibres to the heart. The significance of the contribution to bradycardia in response to marked increases in blood pressure by vagal C fibres are discussed in relation to findings in electrophysiological studies.

Abstract:

Hypertension affects 1 billion individuals worldwide and is the major contributing factor to cardiovascular disease. However, the WHO considers current antihypertensive drug therapies inadequate, highlighting a need for a novel approach to hypertension management. Baroreceptors are a promising drug target, and express an unusual glutamate receptor coupled to phospholipase D (PLD-GluR). The PLD-GluR has not been isolated and characterised, which is an important step towards its use as a drug target. A good source of the PLD-GluR is muscle spindle primary afferent nerve terminals, the largest me

Abstract:

Animals perceive the external world through their sensory systems, which consists in: i) sensory receptors that detect external stimuli; ii) neuronal pathways that convey the sensory information to the brain; and iii) central neurons organized in relay nuclei that process this information. To study the selective innervation of hindbrain regions by sensory afferents, we mapped the fine-grained topographical representation of sensory projections at the central level: sensory ganglia located more anteriorly project more medially than do ganglia located more posteriorly, and this relates to the ti

Abstract:

[Truncated abstract] One of the problems in researching tinnitus is that it has often been assumed that the physiological mechanisms underlying the tinnitus percept cannot be objectively measured. Nonetheless, it is generally accepted that the percept results from altered spontaneous neural activity at some site along the auditory pathway, although it is still debated whether it is produced by: synchronisation of activity of adjacent neurones; a change in the temporal pattern of activity of individual neurones; or an increase in the spontaneous firing rate per se. Similarly, it is possible tha

Abstract:

The work presented in this thesis concerns neurophysiology and pharmacology of the oesophageal afferent pathways involved in oesophago-pharyngeal reflexes and oesophageal nociception. Disturbances of reflexes governing contractile and relaxation responses of the upper oesophageal sphincter (DOS) are likely to be implicated in the pathophysiology of conditions involving excessive oesophago-pharyngeal regurgitation, impaired oesophageal clearance, and an abnormal belch reflex. Visceral hypersensitivity, a heightened perception of gastrointestinal sensation is frequently observed in functional ga

Abstract:

Spinal cord injuries (SCI) sever communication between supraspinal centers and the central pattern generator (CPG) responsible for locomotion. Because the CPG is intact and retains the ability to initiate locomotor activity, it can be accessed electrically and pharmacologically. The goal of this thesis was to identify and characterize a novel spinal cord surface site along the sacral dorsal column (sDC) for electrically evoking locomotor-like activity in the neonatal rat spinal cord. Stimulation of the sDC robustly activated rhythmic left-right alternation in flexor-related ventral roots th

Abstract:

The central nervous system is largely responsible for receiving sensory information from the environment and determining motor output. Yet, centrally-derived behavior and sensation depends on the optimal maintenance of the cells, tissues, and organs that feed and support these functions. Most of visceral regulation occurs without conscious oversight, making the spinal cord a key site for integration and control. How the spinal cord modulates output to our organs, or sensory information from them, is poorly understood. The overall aim of this dissertation was to better understand spinal pro

Abstract:

Cough is a common symptom of respiratory disease. Assessment of antitussives has relied mainly on animal studies and clinical trials in which recording of natural cough is difficult. This thesis describes the use of ultrasonically nebulized distilled water (UNOW) to induce cough in man. Investigation of the chemosensitivity of this response identified that extremes of pH, a chloride concentration below 75mmol/l, but not changes in osmolarity induce cough which reflects afferent rapidly adapting recep~or sensitivity in animal studies.
