The document discusses the nerve supply of the lungs. The lungs receive nerve fibers from the pulmonary plexuses, including parasympathetic, sympathetic, and visceral afferent fibers. Parasympathetic fibers originate from the vagus nerves and act as bronchoconstrictors, vasodilators, and secretomotors. Sympathetic fibers originate from the thoracic spinal cord and act as bronchodilators, vasoconstrictors, and inhibit alveolar gland secretion. Visceral afferent fibers transmit reflexive and nociceptive sensory information. Abnormalities in these nerve pathways contribute to the pathophysiology of bronchial asthma.
