Carotid chemoreceptor discharge during epinephrine infusion in anesthetized cats
It is known that during exercise there is an increase in plasma epinephrine. The purpose of the present investigation was to determine whether stimulation of carotid chemoreceptors by epinephrine is a direct effect or secondary to epinephrine-induced ...

Abstract Cerebral blood flow (CBF) is essential for sustaining neuronal metabolism and cognitive performance; however, the precise relationship between perfusion and cognition remains unclear. Although ageing and disease are associated with progressive declines in CBF and cognitive impairment, the acute effects of altered CBF under environmental ...

Peripheral chemoreceptor inputs to the parabrachial nucleus of the rat
In the urethan-anesthetized rat, extracellular recordings were made from 60 neurons within the region of the parabrachial nucleus (PBN). The activity of 37 of 44 neurons was altered by selective stimulation of peripheral chemoreceptors via intracarotid ...

Abstract Central blood volume (CBV) reduction challenges circulatory and respiratory homeostasis, particularly during the initial compensatory phase (0–2 min), when rapid physiological adaptations occur. In this study, we examined dynamic cardiorespiratory responses to CBV reduction using lower‐body negative pressure (LBNP) in 11 healthy young males ...

Carotid and aortic chemoreceptor function in the rat
Carotid and aortic chemoreceptor function was studied in normal Wistar rats. Sodium cyanide, lobeline HCl, and doxapram HCl in the doses of 2–400 mug/kg injected into the external carotid artery stimulated respiration significantly.

Sympathetic regulation of the cerebral circulation by the carotid chemoreceptor reflex
The effects of carotid chemoreceptor reflex stimulation (intracarotid injection of nicotine 0.2 microgram/kg) were examined in conscious dogs on the cerebral circulation, using the radioactive microsphere technique to measure cerebral blood flow.

HilD-regulated chemotaxis proteins contribute to Salmonella Typhimurium colonization in the gut
In the enteric pathogen Salmonella Typhimurium, invasion and motility are coordinated by HilD, a master regulator that activates expression of genes encoding the type III secretion system 1 and some motility genes, including the chemotaxis gene mcpC ...

Chemoreceptor stimulation on sympathetic activity: dependence on respiratory phase
Experiments were performed on chloralose-anesthetized, vagotomized, paralyzed, and artificially ventilated cats breathing 100% O2. Peripheral chemoreceptors were stimulated by rapid injections of CO2-saturated NaHCO3 in different phases of the ...

Interindividual variability in static apnoea performance is partly explained by genetic factors
Abstract A large interindividual variability exists in maximal apnoea duration and the physiological adjustments that occur during apnoea. Although a few genes have been found to be associated with some of the cardiovascular responses during apnoea, the extent to which genetic and environmental factors contribute to individual differences in apnoea ...

Abstract Sympathetic nervous system activation is a hallmark of high‐altitude hypoxia, yet the afferent mechanisms remain incompletely defined. We examined the relative contributions of pulmonary arterial mechanoreceptors and carotid chemoreceptors – two excitatory pathways co‐activated by hypoxia – to sustained sympathoexcitation at altitude.
