Renal Afferents
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The etiology of hypertension, a critical public health issue affecting one in three US adults, involves the integration of the actions of multiple organ systems, including the renal sympathetic nerves. The renal sympathetic nerves, which are comprised of both afferent (sensory input) and efferent (sympathetic outflow) arms, have emerged as a major potential therapeutic target ...
متن کاملRenal afferents signaling diuretic activity in the cat.
Mechanoreceptors and chemoreceptors have been identified inside the kidney, but their functional role is still largely unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate whether changes in urine output could modify the discharge rate of renal afferent fibers. Experiments were performed in anesthetized cats in which afferent renal nerve activity (ARNA) was recorded by standard electrophysiologica...
متن کاملCardiac afferents attenuate renal sympathetic baroreceptor reflexes during acute hypertension.
We have studied the effect of acute hypertensive episodes on the renal sympathetic baroreceptor reflex in conscious rabbits and the role played by cardiac afferents and endogenous opiate mechanisms. Renal sympathetic nerve activity was recorded during brief perivascular balloon-induced ramp changes in mean arterial pressure before and during 40-minute elevations in resting pressure. Methoxamine...
متن کاملCT afferents
Do you have a ‘scientific hero’ — if so, who and why? I would mention Max Perutz for his influence on my career shift from medicine toward molecular biology. Reading about his work at the time revealed my genuine interest toward biology. Perutz was a brilliant scientist, a founding member of modern molecular biology in Europe and a great mentor who knew how to inspire young scientists toward pu...
متن کاملRole of vagal afferents in the control of renal sympathetic nerve activity in the rabbit.
The influence of vagal afferents on renal sympathetic nerve activity was studied in nine rabbits anesthetized with sodium pentobarbital and artificially ventilated with oxygen. Arterial Pco2 and pH were kept normal. The aortic depressor and the carotid sinus nerves were cut. The mean impulse frequency was determined from multifiber preparations of the renal nerve. Blood volume was altered eithe...
