The effect of prolonged aortic depressor nerve (ADN) stimulation on carotid sinus baroreflex
regulation of arterial pressure (AP) and renal sympathetic nerve activity (RSNA) was …

This chapter discusses a general picture of baroreceptor function against the background of
structure and mechanics of the baroreceptor zones.“Neurogenic hypertension,” ie, the …

A recent study suggested that exposure of carotid sinus baroreceptors to pulsatile pressures
for a period of minutes can decrease the static threshold pressure at which they begin to …

We compared baroreflex modulation of human vagal-cardiac and sympathetic muscle
activity in healthy volunteers by measuring RR interval and peroneal nerve responses to a …

An age‐associated increase in arterial blood pressure is evident for apparently healthy
humans. This is frequently attributed to stiffening of the central arteries and a concurrent …

Baroreceptors respond to stress changes and are stimulated by the deformation of the tunica
externa of the vessel in which they are located. Whilst the mean intraluminal blood pressure …

Changes in arterial baroreflex control of the circulation occur in experimental and in human
hypertension. Hypertension can affect the afferent, the central, and the efferent portions of …

The sympathetic nervous system and the kidneys exert considerable influence on the long-
term control of blood pressure. The ability of the baroreflex to influence both these systems …

In decerebrate unanesthetized cats, we determined whether either “central command,” the
exercise pressor reflex, or the muscle mechanoreceptor reflex reset the carotid baroreflex …

No. 12, pp. 2055–2062, 2008. Arterial baroreceptors originating in the carotid arteries and
aorta play a pivotal role in the rapid reflex adjustments that accompany acute cardiovascular …
