A recent study suggested that a transcription factor called paired-like homeobox 2a or Phox2a regulates the expression of the alpha-3 subunit of the ganglionic nicotinergic acetylcholine receptor. The possibility that Phox2a or other mechanisms regulating ganglionic transmission contribute to human autonomic disease deserve further studies. Another study tested mechanisms contributing to impaired adenosine mediated vasodilation of myocardial blood vessels in patients with type-2 diabetes mellitus. The previously suggested idea that the impairment may result from imbalance between nitric oxide mediated vasodilation and adrenergic vasoconstriction could not be confirmed. A third study suggests that certain scents may evoke physiological responses in animals through the autonomic nervous system. The response appears to involve the suprachiasmatic nucleus Steinkopff Verlag Darmstadt, 2007 paired-like homeobox 2a nationallicence Phox2a nationallicence autonomic ganglia nationallicence nicotinergic acetylcholine receptor nationallicence type-2 diabetes mellitus nationallicence positron emission tomography nationallicence adenosine nationallicence scent nationallicence suprachiasmatic nucleus nationallicence Clinical Autonomic Research Steinkopff-Verlag; www.steinkopff.springer.de 17/2(2007-04-01), 61-63 0959-9851 17:2<61 2007 17 10286 https://doi.org/10.1007/s10286-007-0414-3 text/html Onlinezugriff via DOI 1 research-article jats NATIONALLICENCE 856 40 https://doi.org/10.1007/s10286-007-0414-3 text/html Onlinezugriff via DOI NATIONALLICENCE 100 1- Jordan Jens Franz Volhard Clinical Research Center, Max Delbrück Center, and HELIOS Klinikum Berlin, Charité Campus Buch, Haus 129, Wiltbergstr. 50, 13125, Berlin, Germany aut NATIONALLICENCE 773 0- Clinical Autonomic Research Steinkopff-Verlag; www.steinkopff.springer.de 17/2(2007-04-01), 61-63 0959-9851 17:2<61 2007 17 10286 Metadata rights reserved Springer special CC-BY-NC licence nationallicence SWISSBIB 458059609 BK010053 XK010053 XK010000 NATIONALLICENCE NATIONALLICENCE NL-springer
