Lesions in rostral ventromedial or rostral ventrolateral medulla block neurogenic hypertension.
Neurogenic hypertension results from the removal of inhibitory baroreceptor afferent input to vasomotor systems in the central nervous system. We sought to determine whether the bilateral destruction of neurons in the rostral ventrolateral or rostral ventromedial medulla, made using microinjections of N-methyl-D-aspartic acid (30 nmol in 200 nL), would block the acute increase in arterial press...
متن کاملPulsatile compression of the rostral ventrolateral medulla in hypertension.
The rostral ventrolateral medulla (RVLM) has been known to be a major regulating center of sympathetic and cardiovascular activities. An association between essential hypertension and neurovascular compression of the RVLM has been reported in clinical observations, including magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies. To reconfirm this relationship, we performed MRI using a high-resolution 512 x ...
متن کاملOxidative impairment of mitochondrial electron transport chain complexes in rostral ventrolateral medulla contributes to neurogenic hypertension.
The role for mitochondrial electron transport chain (ETC) in neurogenic hypertension is unidentified. We evaluated the hypothesis that feedforward depression of mitochondrial ETC functions by superoxide anion (O(2)(.-)) and hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)) in rostral ventrolateral medulla (RVLM), a brain stem site that maintains sympathetic vasomotor tone and contributes to oxidative stress and neu...
متن کاملNeurochemical properties of BDNF-containing neurons projecting to rostral ventromedial medulla in the ventrolateral periaqueductal gray
The periaqueductal gray (PAG) modulates nociception via a descending pathway that relays in the rostral ventromedial medulla (RVM) and terminates in the spinal cord. Previous behavioral pharmacology and electrophysiological evidence suggests that brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) plays an important role in descending pain modulation, likely through the PAG-RVM pathway. However, detailed ...
متن کاملPermanent lesion in rostral ventromedial medulla potentiates swim stress-induced analgesia in formalin test
Objective(s): There are many reports about the role of rostral ventromedial medulla (RVM) in modulating stress-induced analgesia (SIA). In the previous study we demonstrated that temporal inactivation of RVM by lidocaine potentiated stress-induced analgesia. In this study, we investigated the effect of permanent lesion of the RVM on SIA by using formalin test as a model of acute inflammatory pa...
