The paper investigates how immune responses to infection affect peripheral sympathetic neuron functions, finding that cytokines and interferons alter nerve growth and neuron excitability.

This study shows midbrain dopamine neurons modulate splenic immunity via a brain-to-body circuit involving the DVC and celiac ganglion, reducing spleen weight and naive CD4+ T-cell populations.

This study maps reciprocal connectivity between the periaqueductal gray (PAG) and brainstem respiratory nuclei in rats, revealing distinct patterns of connectivity with the Kolliker-Fuse nucleus and limited connections with the Botzinger complex.

The paper maps descending forebrain projections to midbrain, pons, and medulla oblongata respiratory control nuclei, revealing distinct cortical inputs to specific nuclei involved in breathing and orofacial behaviors.
