MrgprC11+ Jugular Neurons Control Airway Hyperresponsiveness in Allergic Airway Inflammation

The lung is densely innervated by sensory nerves, the majority of which are derived from the vagal sensory neurons. Vagal ganglia consist of two different ganglia, termed nodose and jugular ganglia, with distinct embryonic origins, innervation patterns, and physiological functions in the periphery. Since nodose neurons constitute the majority of the vagal ganglia, our understanding of the function of jugular nerves in the lung is very limited. This study aims to investigate the role of MrgprC11
