Alcayaga Urbina, Julio; Retamal, Mauricio Antonio; Cerpa, Verónica; Arroyo, Jorge; Zapata, Patricio (Elsevier, 2003)The petrosal ganglion (PG) provides sensory innervation to the carotid sinus and carotid body through the carotid (sinus) nerve (CN). Application of either acetylcholine (ACh) or adenosine 5′-triphosphate (ATP) to the PG ...

Alcayaga Urbina, Julio; Varas, Rodrigo; Arroyo, Jorge; Iturriaga, Rodrigo; Zapata, Patricio (1999)We have recently reported that application of acetylcholine (ACh) or nicotine to the petrosal ganglion - the sensory ganglion of the glossopharyngeal nerve - elicits a burst of discharges in the carotid nerve branch, ...

Alcayaga Urbina, Julio; Varas, Rodrigo; Arroyo, Jorge; Iturriaga, Rodrigo; Zapata, Patricio (Elsevier, 1999)NaCN is a classical stimulus used to elicit discharges from carotid body chemoreceptors. The effect is assumed to be mediated by glomus (type I) cells, which release an excitatory transmitter for the excitation of carotid ...

Alcayaga Urbina, Julio; Iturriaga, Rodrigo; Varas, Rodrigo; Arroyo, Jorge; Zapata, Patricio (1998)The petrosal ganglion innervates carotid body chemoreceptors through the carotid (sinus) nerve. These primary sensory neurons are activated by transmitters released from receptor (glomus) cells, acetylcholine (ACh) having ...
