Both GABAA and GABAB receptors mediate vagal inhibition in nucleus tractus solitarii neurones in anaesthetized rats.
GABA receptors in the nucleus tractus solitarius (NTS) are known to play an important role in the mediation/modulation of various cardiovascular/respiratory functions. Vagal afferent activation of these neurones usually evokes an initial excitation followed by a long lasting inhibition. The present study examines the role of GABA(B) as well as GABA(A) receptors in the mediation of this inhibiti...
متن کاملModulation of exercise tachycardia by vasopressin in the nucleus tractus solitarii.
Our objective was to study the role of vasopressinergic synapses at the nucleus tractus solitarii (NTS) in the modulation of exercise-induced tachycardia. We evaluated the effect of NTS administration of vasopressin (AVP) or vasopressin antagonist (AVPant) on heart rate (HR) and mean arterial pressure (MAP) responses during dynamic exercise in male rats with chronic arterial and NTS cannulas. S...
متن کاملHemodynamic effects elicited by stimulation of the nucleus tractus solitarii.
Microinjection of the excitatory amino acid L-glutamate into the nucleus tractus solitarii (NTS) elicits decreases in arterial pressure and heart rate. In the present study, we sought to determine the regional hemodynamic effects that were correlated with changes in arterial pressure and heart rate produced by stimulation of the NTS. In anesthetized rats, blood flow in the renal (RBF), superior...
متن کاملExtracellular ATP both inhibits and facilitates calcium channel currents in acutely dissociated rat nucleus tractus solitarius.
The postsynaptic actions of exogenously applied adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) were investigated in nucleus tractus solitarius (NTS) of the rat. Whole cell patch-clamp recordings were used to examine the regulation of voltage-dependent Ca2+ channels (VDCCs) currents (I(Ca)) by ATP in freshly dissociated NTS. Application of ATP inhibited I(Ca) from -905 pA to -741 pA. In addition to this inhibi...
متن کاملInhibition of baroreflex by angiotensin II via Fos expression in nucleus tractus solitarii of the rat.
We evaluated the modulatory action of angiotensin II at the nucleus tractus solitarii on spontaneous baroreceptor reflex response, the angiotensin subtype receptors involved, and the role of Fos protein in this process, using Sprague-Dawley rats anesthetized with pentobarbital sodium. Microinjection bilaterally of angiotensin (Ang ) II (5, 10, 20, or 40 pmol) into the nucleus tractus solitarii ...
