[Characteristics of central acute resetting of high threshold baroreflex in rabbit's aortic nerves].
Experiments were performed on 37 urethane-anesthetized rabbits. The aortic nerves, carotid sinus nerves and vagus nerves were cut, MAP and renal sympathetic nerve activity (RSNA) were recorded. The conditional stimulation CSc (0.5 ms, 10 Hz, 4-6V, 5 min) was used to mimic the information of baroreflex non-medullated afferent fibers responding to acute increase of BP. Test stimulation TSa (0.02 ms, 0-80 Hz/30 s, 4-6V) and TSc (0.5 ms, 0-20 Hz/30s, 4-6V) was used to examine the responses of baroreflex A- and C-fibers. After CSc at 1 min the reflex MAP and RSNA of TSc was attenuated at 45.5% (P less than 0.01) and 10.6% (P less than 0.05), the MAP response of TSa was attenuated at 32.1% (P less than 0.05), but the RSNA response was not. From the further investigation it is concluded that the characteristics of central acute resetting are dependent on the components of baroreflex afferent fibers. The reflex responses are attenuated mainly by correspondent afferent components.
