Pressor response to compression of the ventrolateral medulla mediated by glutamate receptors.
The rostral ventrolateral medulla (RVLM) is considered a major center for the regulation of sympathetic and cardiovascular activities. Several clinical studies have indicated a possible causal relationship between neurovascular contact of the left RVLM and essential hypertension, and some investigators have suggested that the left RVLM is more sensitive to pulsatile compression than the right R...
متن کاملMetabotropic glutamate receptors in the ventrolateral medulla of rats.
We investigated the hypothesis that stimulation of metabotropic excitatory amino acid receptors in the ventrolateral medulla evokes cardiovascular responses. Thus, (1S,3R)-1-aminocyclopentane-1,3-dicarboxylic acid [(1S,3R)-ACPD], a selective agonist of metabotropic excitatory amino acid receptors, was microinjected into the rostral or caudal ventrolateral medulla of halothane-anesthetized Sprag...
متن کاملAngiotensin type 1A receptors in C1 neurons of the rostral ventrolateral medulla modulate the pressor response to aversive stress.
The rise in blood pressure during an acute aversive stress has been suggested to involve activation of angiotensin type 1A receptors (AT(1A)Rs) at various sites within the brain, including the rostral ventrolateral medulla. In this study we examine the involvement of AT(1A)Rs associated with a subclass of sympathetic premotor neurons of the rostral ventrolateral medulla, the C1 neurons. The dis...
متن کاملAT(1) receptors mediate excitatory inputs to rostral ventrolateral medulla pressor neurons from hypothalamus.
Angiotensin II type 1 (AT(1)) receptors are located on pressor neurons in the rostral ventrolateral medulla, and their activation results in an increase in arterial pressure. However, the normal role of these AT(1) receptors in cardiovascular regulation is unknown. In this study, we tested the hypothesis that these receptors mediate synaptic excitation of rostral ventrolateral medullary pressor...
متن کاملEffect of GABAA Receptors in the Rostral Ventrolateral Medulla on Cardiovascular Response to the Activation of the Bed Nucleus of the Stria Terminalis in Female Ovariectomized Rats
Background: The areas of the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis (BST) with a high density of estrogen receptors are involved in cardiovascular regulation and send axonal projections to the rostroventrolateral medulla (RVLM). We aimed to find the contribution of the RVLM to cardiovascular responses elicited by glutamate microinjection into the BST. Methods: Experiments were done in α-ch...
