A vagal-to-sympathetic reflex controls lung vascular leak
Dynamic regulation of the vascular barrier is required for an effective inflammatory response, allowing delivery of plasma proteins and immune cells to sites of insult. Although normally protective, sustained leak becomes costly in organs like the lung, where swelling stiffens tissue and impairs breathing, yet many upstream regulators remain unidentified. Using a chemogenetic screen of vagal…
