Abstract
Background
Studies have reported the use of a hypertonic saline solution (HSS) for the treatment of hypotensive hemorrhage (HH). Despite the established role of central mechanisms in the cardiovascular recovery induced by HSS during HH, the involvement of the Subfornical Organ (SFO) in these responses remains to be elucidated. The present study evaluated the role of SFO and adrenergic neurotransmission in the nucleus in the cardiovascular responses to HSS infusion in hemorrhagic rats.
Methods
Mean arterial pressure (MAP), heart rate (HR), and aortic vascular resistance (AVR) were recorded in Wistar rats. HH was performed through blood withdrawal until a MAP of 60 mmHg was attained. Nanoinjections of saline (NaCl; 0.15 M; control group; n = 7), muscimol (4 mM; GABAergic agonist; muscimol group; n = 7), or propranolol (10 mM; non-selective β-adrenergic blocker; propranolol group; n = 7) in SFO were performed 10 min after the onset of blood withdrawal, followed by HSS infusion (NaCl; 3 M; 1.8 ml∙kg−1) 20 min after the beginning of HH.
Results
Hypotension, bradycardia, and aortic vasoconstriction were observed in all groups During HH. Sodium overload reestablished MAP and HR while maintaining aortic vasoconstriction in the control group. Activation of GABA A receptors or β-adrenergic receptor blockade in the SFO prevents HSS-induced recovery of MAP and HR. In addition, maintenance of aortic vasoconstriction induced by HSS infusion was abolished by SFO inhibition.
Conclusions
The results suggest that the integrity of SFO neurons and β-adrenergic neurotransmission are essential for cardiovascular recovery promoted by sodium overload in hemorrhagic rats.
期刊介绍：
This is an international journal with broad coverage of all aspects of the autonomic nervous system in man and animals. The main areas of interest include the innervation of blood vessels and viscera, autonomic ganglia, efferent and afferent autonomic pathways, and autonomic nuclei and pathways in the central nervous system.
The Editors will consider papers that deal with any aspect of the autonomic nervous system, including structure, physiology, pharmacology, biochemistry, development, evolution, ageing, behavioural aspects, integrative role and influence on emotional and physical states of the body. Interdisciplinary studies will be encouraged. Studies dealing with human pathology will be also welcome.
