An increase in plasma ANG II causes neuronal activation in hypothalamic nuclei and a slow
pressor response, presumably by increasing sympathetic drive. We evaluated whether the …

Elevated NaCl concentrations of the cerebrospinal fluid increase sympathetic nerve activity
(SNA) in salt-sensitive hypertension. Neurons of the rostral ventrolateral medulla (RVLM) …

To identify neuronal populations possibly contributing to the sympathetic hyperactivity in rats
with congestive heart failure (CHF) after myocardial infarction (MI), immunohistochemical …

Several brain regions are proposed as contributing to chronic sympatho-excitatory effects of
elevated circulating angiotensin II. However, earlier c-Fos studies have been limited to acute …

In the brain, ouabain-like compounds (OLC) and the reninangiotensin system (RAS)
contribute to sympathetic hyperactivity in rats after myocardial infarction (MI). This study …

Recent studies indicate that renal sympathetic nerve activity is chronically suppressed in
angiotensin (Ang II) hypertension and that baroreflexes play a critical role in mediating this …

The major goal of this study was to determine whether there is increased activation of
medullary neurons that participate in the central baroreceptor reflex pathway in dogs with …

Hypertension is a prevalent pathology that increases risk for numerous cardiovascular
diseases. Because the etiology of hypertension varies across patients, specific and effective …

To map changes in neuronal activity in the brains of Dahl salt-sensitive (Dahl S) vs. salt-
resistant (Dahl R) rats by high-sodium diet, we used immunohistochemical detection of Fra …

To identify central neurons participating in cardiovascular regulation in hypertension, we
studied Fos staining, a marker for synaptically activated neurons, in adult male normotensive …
