• Abstract

  The nucleus of solitary tract (NTS) is located in the brainstem, the first area in the central nervous system that receives projections from the peripheral baroreceptors and chemoreceptors. Studies demonstrated that L-glutamate and more recently the ATP are the neurotransmitters involved in the peripheral chemorreflex in the NTS. The hypoxia is a well-known stimulus that decreases the par…

• Abstract

  Blood volume alterations could be caused by different physiological conditions like vomit, increased of sodium intake, or use of diuretics. The sodium depletion produced by Subcutaneous Injection (sc) of the diuretic furosemide associated by a 24 hours sodium deficient diet causes changes in the body fluid balance, activating behavioral, hormonal and autonomic responses to reclaim such ch…

• Abstract

  The salivation is under control of autonomic nervous system. Studies have showen that animals submitted to chronic hypoxia and application of anoxic or hypoxic perfusate in isolated salivary glands reduced salivary flow. However, there are no evidences that show how is the salivation in animals submitted to chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH). Chronic exposure to intermittent hypoxia is a …
