(2014)Satellite glial cells (SGCs) are the main glia in sensory ganglia. They surround neuronal bodies and form a cap that prevents the formation of chemical or electrical synapses between neighboring neurons. SGCs have been ...

Icekson, Gabriel; Dominguez, Claudia V.; Dedios, Valentina P.; Arroyo, Jorge; Alcayaga Urbina, Julio (Elsevier, 2013)tIn mammals, adaptation to chronic hypoxia requires the integrity of the arterial chemoreceptors, speciallythe carotid body (CB). Chronic hypoxia increases the sensibility of the CB by acting on the receptorcells, but there ...

Soto, Carolina R.; Ortiz, Fernando C.; Vargas, Romina V.; Arroyo, Jorge; Alcayaga Urbina, Julio (ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2010-05-02)Acetylcholine and ATP appear to mediate excitatory transmission between receptor (glomus) cells and the petrosal ganglion (PG) neuron terminals in the carotid body. In most species these putative transmitters are excitatory, ...

Gila, Pilar M.; Gurovich, Luis; Schaffer, Bruce; Alcayaga Urbina, Julio; Rey, Sergio; Iturriaga, Rodrigo (ELSEVIER, 2008)Phytomonitoring techniques for irrigation of avocado orchards indicate that plants respond very rapidly to fluctuations in soil water content. Root to leaf abscicic acid transport cannot fully explain the almost immediate ...
