The purpose of this article is to give a concise state-of-the-art account of the neural
mechanism of the arterial baroreceptor reflex. Our emphasis is on the central mechanism …

The CNS control of the cardiovascular system involves the coordination of a series of
complex neural mechanisms which integrate afferent information from a variety of peripheral …

Abstract Glucagon‐like peptide‐1 (GLP‐1) is derived from the peptide precursor pre‐pro‐
glucagon (PPG) by enzymatic cleavage and acts via its receptor, glucagon‐like peptide‐1 …

Despite increasing focus on brainstem respiratory control mechanisms in the rat, relatively
little is known about the central organization of chemoreceptor pathways in this species. To …

The central distributions of primary afferent axons in the facial, trigeminal (mandibular
branch), glossopharyngeal, and vagal nerves of the rat have been re-examined using the …

Nitroglycerin is a vasodilator which induces vascular relaxation by releasing nitric oxide in
the wall of blood vessels. It has been suggested that the cardiovascular inhibitory responses …

The afferent connections of cell groups in the antroventral third ventricular (AV3V) region
were investigated using wheat germ agglutinin-horseradish peroxidase conjugate injections …

Brainstem projections of the aortic nerve in the rat were studied using the transganglionic
transport of horseradish peroxidase. Labeled axons were found to project predominantly to …

Central projections of the Arnold's nerve (the auricular branch of the vagus nerve; ABV) of
the cat were examined by the transganglionic HRP method. After applying HRP to the …

The medullary projections of afferent neurons with cell bodies in the petrosal ganglion have
been investigated using an antidromic map** technique. Of the ninety‐three units studied …
