Popis: Vagal afferent neurons innervating visceral organs are involved not only in organ regulation but also in generation or modulation of pain and nociception in various ways. This influence originating in visceral organs has to be understood in the frame of protection of body tissues when the body is endangered by invading organisms, antigens, toxins, and other events.
