| Abstract | 1. Stimulation of cutaneous and spinal visceral nociceptive afferents and intrathecal nicotine reduces bradykinin-induced plasma extravasation (BK-induced PE) in the knee joint of the rat. This depression is mediated by the hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis and is potentiated by subdiaphragmatic vagotomy. It is believed that activity in vagal afferents tonically inhibits ascending impulse transmission in the neuraxis projecting to the hypothalamus. Vagotomy, by removing such inhibition, allows greater depression of BK-induced PE. In this study we determined whether the vagal afferents which negatively regulate activities of the HPA axis are present in all branches of the abdominal vagus nerves or only in specific branches. 2. We measured the depression of BK-induced PE elicited by graded stimulation of spinal visceral afferents with intraperitoneal capsaicin and by intrathecal nicotine in vagus-intact rats and in rats in which specific vagal branches were selectively interrupted. (i) Interruption of the coeliac branches mimicked the effect of total subdiaphragmatic vagotomy in potentiating the depression of BK-induced PE generated by intrathecal nicotine and by stimulation of spinal visceral afferents. (ii) Interruption of the gastric and hepatic branches of the abdominal vagus nerves together or individually did not affect the depression of BK-induced PE generated by the two stimuli. 3. These results indicate that afferent activity in coeliac and accessory coeliac vagal branches is involved in the regulation of the nociceptive system-initiated depression of BK-induced PE. The afferent fibres in these vagal branches involved probably monitor physiological events in abdominal visceral organs. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
