Zheng JA, Pan JY, Hou HC: [Role of paraventricular nucleus of hypothalamus in pressor response to stimulation of renal afferent nerve in cats]. Sheng Li Xue Bao. 1991 Aug;43(4):330-7.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the role of paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus (PVN) and alpha 1 adrenergic receptor of PVN in the pressor responses to stimulation of renal afferent nerve in alpha 1-chloralose-anesthetized cats with carotid sinoaortic denervation and vagotomy. The pressor response to stimulation of renal afferent nerve consisted of a primary and a second components. The primary component response was completely blocked while the second component was not blocked by autonomic blocking agents (hexomethonium and atropine). Bilateral lesions of PVN greatly attenuated the pressor response before and after autonomic blockade. Intracerebroventricular and PVN injection alpha 1, adrenergic antagonist (prazosin) significantly decreased in the pressor response to stimulation of renal afferent nerve. These results indicate that paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus and alpha 1 adrenergic receptors in central nervous system, especially in PVN, play an important role in the pressor responses to stimulation of renal afferent nerve. |
