Vagal mediation of the effects of atrial natriuretic factor on blood pressure and arterial baroreflexes in the rabbit.

M Volpe, A Cuocolo, F Vecchione, AF Mele… - Circulation …, 1987 - Am Heart Assoc
We investigated the hemodynamic effect of synthetic atrial natriuretic factor Auriculin A (ANF)
and its influence on arterial baroreflex control of heart rate, systemic blood pressure, and …

Atrial natriuretic factor and arterial baroreceptor reflexes in unanesthetized rats.

AU Ferrari, A Daffonchio, C Sala, S Gerosa… - Hypertension, 1990 - Am Heart Assoc
The modulation exerted by atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) on the cardiac and vascular
influences of arterial baroreceptors was investigated in two groups of unanesthetized …

Atrial natriuretic factor-induced systemic vasoconstriction in conscious dogs, rats, and monkeys.

YT Shen, MA Young, J Ohanian, RM Graham… - Circulation …, 1990 - Am Heart Assoc
This study addresses the hypothesis that atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) is a primary
vasodilator, which reduces arterial pressure directly and increases total peripheral …

Interactions between atrial natriuretic factor and the autonomic nervous system

CC Lang, AD Struthers - Clinical Autonomic Research, 1991 - Springer
In addition to its natriuretic, hormonal and vascular actions, atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) may
interact importantly with the function of the autonomic nervous system. It has been …

Sympathoinhibitory effects of atrial natriuretic factor in normal humans.

JS Floras - Circulation, 1990 - Am Heart Assoc
In rats, atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) reduces sympathetic nerve activity (SNA) reflexively by
sensitizing cardiac mechanoreceptors with inhibitory vagal afferents. We performed three …

Atrial natriuretic factor potentiates forearm reflex vasoconstriction induced by cardiopulmonary receptor deactivation in man.

M Volpe, N De Luca, MC Bigazzi, F Vecchione… - Circulation, 1988 - Am Heart Assoc
Previous evidence suggests that atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) interferes with the autonomic
control of circulation. In the present study we investigated whether ANF modulates forearm …

Converting enzyme inhibition prevents the effects of atrial natriuretic factor on baroreflex responses in humans.

M Volpe, G Lembo, G Condorelli, N De Luca… - Circulation, 1990 - Am Heart Assoc
The aim of this study was to assess the influence of atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) on arterial
baroreflex chronotropic responses and to investigate whether this effect of ANF is affected by …

Selective antagonism of hormone-induced vasoconstriction by synthetic atrial natriuretic factor in the rat microcirculation.

KG Proctor, SL Bealer - Circulation research, 1987 - Am Heart Assoc
Synthetic atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) was either added to suffusate solutions (30 nM) or
infused into the jugular vein (0.1 nanomol/min/100 g) of anesthetized rats. Steady-state …

Atrial natriuretic factor inhibits adrenergic and purinergic neurotransmission in the rabbit isolated vas deferens.

JG Drewett, GJ Trachte, GR Marchand - Journal of Pharmacology and …, 1989 - ASPET
This study tests the hypothesis that atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) acts to inhibit
neurotransmission in the rabbit vas deferens. The vas deferens is a unique model of …

Atrial natriuretic factor attenuates carotid baroreflex-mediated cardioacceleration in humans

TJ Ebert, AW Cowley Jr - American Journal of Physiology …, 1988 - journals.physiology.org
We tested the hypothesis that infusions of atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) attenuate carotid
baroreflex-mediated tachycardia in humans. The afferent profile from carotid baroreceptors …
