Abstract:
Objective:To study the possibility that responses of fever and c- Fos expression in rat PVN and NTS to intraperitoneal administration of LPS are rnediated by vagal afferents. Methods: Rectal temperature was detected by digital temperature detecting instrument. c-Fos expressis was detected by immunohistochemistry staining.Results:The rectal temperature change value in vagotomy LPS gnoup was significantlydecreased compared with that in sham IPS group,and there was striking difference betwen them, p <0.05.It was increased significantlycompared with that in vagotomy NS group, P < 0.05.The percentage of c-Fos positive neurons in rat PVN and NTS in vagotomy LPS group wassignificantly decreased compared with that in sham LPS group,and there were difference between them, p <0.01.Itwas stnkingly increased compared with that in vagotomy conrol group,respectively, P <0.01.Conclusion:The results indicate that vagus nerve is one of thepathways of peripheal LPS signal communicating to CNS.
