Differential chemosensory function and receptor expression of splanchnic and pelvic colonic afferents in mice

Abstract: Lumbar splanchnic (LSN) and sacral pelvic (PN) nerves convey different mechanosensory information from the colon to the spinal cord. Here we determined whether these pathways also differ in their chemosensitivity and receptor expression. Using an in vitro mouse colon preparation, individual primary afferents were tested with selective P2X and transient receptor potential vanilloid receptor 1 (TRPV1) receptor ligands. Afferent cell bodies in thoracolumbar and lumbosacral dorsal root ganglia (DRG) were retrograd… Show more

“…It is abundant in peptidergic thoracolumbar vascular afferents, 113,114 and is detectable in the majority of their perivascular, intramuscular, ganglionic and mucosal axons in the gut wall. 115 TrpV1 might be directly activated by the acidosis that accompanies frank tissue damage 116 or by local increases in temperature during inflammation.…”

“…bradykinin, 5-HT, neuronal growth factor, tryptase), but also mild acidosis are able to sensitize TRPV1 and enhance the probability of channel gating by heat and capsaicin (Chuang et al, 2001;Ji et al, 2002;Amadesi et al, 2004;Sugiuar et al, 2004). Because TRPV1 was suggested to play a crucial role in nociception based on its expression on mostly unmyelinated visceral afferents (Ward et al, 2003;Brierley et al, 2005;Christianson et al, 2006), a vast number of studies investigating its role in visceral sensation and pain emerged (Caterina et al, 2000). (Reviews by Di Marzo et al, 2002;Geppetti and Trevisani, 2004;Holzer, 2008b;Blackshaw et al, 2010).…”

“…Similar roles were suggested in bladder afferents [51]. Capsaicin potently activates splanchnic and pelvic colonic serosal afferents, which is followed by pronounced mechanical desensitization exclusively in splanchnic afferents [13]. This suggests that the coupling of TRPV1 may differ between splanchnic and pelvic pathways.…”

“…TRPV1 is more highly expressed in gut innervating afferents than skin innervating afferents [27], with up to 60% of lumbosacral and 82% of thoracolumbar colonic DRG neurones immunoreactive for TRPV1 [13,27,28], which is similar to the proportion of thoracic gastric DRG neurones [29]. TRPV1 is found correspondingly in peripheral terminals of gut afferents [30], and in 40-80% of gastric vagal afferent neurones [29,31].…”
