PY - 2008 DA - 2008/10/19 TI - Immunohistochemical characterization of nodose cough receptor neurons projecting to the trachea of guinea pigs JO - Cough SP - 9 VL - 4 IS - 1 AB - Cough in guinea pigs is mediated in part by capsaicin-insensitive low threshold mechanoreceptors (cough receptors). Functional studies suggest that cough receptors represent a homogeneous population of nodose ganglia-derived sensory neurons. In the present study we set out to characterize the neurochemical profile of cough receptor neurons in the nodose ganglia.
