In cortical circuits, this provides critical feedforward and feedback inhibition. Given their important roles and unique functional features in instructing neuronal circuit function, PV-interneurons have served as an excellent model system for uncovering molecular mechanisms underlying the specification of neuronal synapse properties. Moreover, studies on PV-interneurons led to the discovery of novel mechanisms of neuronal plasticity as PV-networks rapidly adapt their connectivity in response to changes in sensory experience and during learning processes.

Therefore, timely exploration of sympathetic-gut communication is essential. <strong>Recent findings:</strong> Previous studies have revealed that sympathetic signaling inhibits intestinal peristalsis and blood flow while enhancing nutrient assimilation during feeding. Emerging evidence further identifies a neuro-metabolic axis in which sympathetic activity suppresses enteroendocrine hormone secretion, thereby linking systemic energy balance to central nervous system function. Additionally, bidirectional SNS-immune interactions have been uncovered; these pathways govern antimicrobial defense yet paradoxically exacerbate inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), and colorectal cancer (CRC). <strong>Summary:</strong> This review briefly summarizes anatomical insights into sympathetic-gut projections, highlights their dual roles in metabolic homeostasis and immune modulation, and explores therapeutic opportunities targeting sympathetic pathways for gut-related disorders.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":10999,"journal":{"name":"Current Opinion in Neurobiology","volume":"93 ","pages":"Article 103051"},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2025-05-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144168520","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While rods and cones enable image-forming vision, evolution has preserved and extended evolutionarily ancient yet critical non-image-forming visual functions, including circadian photoentrainment, pupillary light reflexes, and light-mediated modulation of metabolism, mood, and neurodevelopment. Although non-image-forming visual functions have been partially characterized in humans and model organisms, our understanding of the neural circuit mechanisms by which light orchestrates diverse behavior remains fragmented. The discovery of ipRGCs, combined with recent advances in systems neuroscience tools, has yielded critical breakthroughs in three domains: (1) light information encoding within photoreceptors, (2) systematic mapping of retinofugal pathways, and (3) central mechanisms of light-regulated physiological functions.
