Activation of Vagal Afferents after Intravenous Injection of Interleukin-1beta : Role of Endogenous Prostaglandins

Intravenous administration of interleukin-1 (IL-1) activates central autonomic neuronal circuitries originating in the nucleus of the solitary tract (NTS). The mechanism(s) by which blood-borne IL-1 regulates brain functions, whether by operating across the blood-brain barrier and/or by activating peripheral sensory afferents, remains to be characterized. It has been proposed that vagal afferents originating in the periphery may monitor circulating IL-1 levels, because neurons within the NTS are primary recipients of sensory information from the vagus nerve and also exhibit exquisite sensitivity to blood-borne IL-1. In this study, we present evidence that viscerosensory afferents of the vagus nerve respond to intravenously administered IL-1beta . Specific labeling for mRNAs encoding the type 1 IL-1 receptor and the EP3 subtype of the prostaglandin E2 receptor was detected in situ over neuronal cell bodies in the rat nodose ganglion. Moreover, intravenously applied IL-1 increased the number of sensory neurons in the nodose ganglion that express the cellular activation marker c-Fos, which was matched by an increase in discharge activity of vagal afferents arising from gastric compartments. This response to IL-1 administration was attenuated in animals pretreated with the cyclooxygenase inhibitor indomethacin, suggesting partial mediation by prostaglandins. In conclusion, these results demonstrate that somata and/or fibers of sensory neurons of the vagus nerve express receptors to IL-1 and prostaglandin E2 and that circulating IL-1 stimulates vagal sensory activity via both prostaglandin-dependent and -independent mechanisms.

Key words: nodose ganglion; viscerosensory; nucleus of the solitary tract; autonomic; cytokine; c-Fos; blood-brain barrier; neuroimmunomodulation; inflammation; acute-phase response
