摘要: Abstract Kainic acid injections into the ventral medulla oblongata of sodium pentobarbital-anesthetized rats caused an almost immediate increase in mean arterial pressure which reached hypertensive levels (200mm Hg). Correlated with this rise blood was a two-fold amount SP-like immunoreactivity (SPLI) spinal cord superfusion samples. Baseline values obtained from pool two went from∼ 10pg/10min to∼ 20pg/10min. Rats pretreated intracerebroventricular serotonin neurotoxin, 5,7-dihydroxytryptamine (5,7-DHT), were also given kainic medulla. 5,7-DHT did not block response to nor elevation SPLI superfusates. However, baseline decreased by ∼ 50% 5,7-DHT-treated rats. These findings show that activation causes superfusates conmitant pressure. responses appear be independent serotonergic systems.
