The caudal nucleus of the solitary tract (NTS) serves as the site of the first synapse for visceral sensory inputs to the central nervous system. The NTS sends functional projections to multiple brain nuclei, with gastric-related projections primarily targeting the dorsal motor nucleus of the vagus

Recombinant interferon-α (rIFN-α) has been widely used for treating viral infections. However, the clinical efficacy of unmodified rIFN-α is limited due to small molecular size and rapid clearance from circulation. In this study we developed a novel strategy for half-life extension of porcine IFN-α

Herpesvirus particles have a complex architecture consisting of an icosahedral capsid that is surrounded by a lipid envelope. Connecting these two components is a layer of tegument that consists of various amounts of 20 or more proteins. The arrangement of proteins within the tegument cannot easily

It will be well to restate the main problem at this point and to examine how far the accumulated data can help to elucidate it. The problem is this: Why are old mice generally resistant to all forms of peripheral inoculation of vesicular stomatitis virus when intracerebral injection is equally fatal

Cardiac vagal neurons play a critical role in the control of heart rate and cardiac function. These neurons, which are primarily located in the nucleus ambiguus (NA) and the dorsal motor nucleus of the vagus (DMNX), dominate the neural control of heart rate under normal conditions. Cardiac vagal
