  • Title: [Comparison of somatosympathetic reflex in normotensive and spontaneously hypertensive rats].
    Author: Shcherbin IuI, Tsyrlin VA.
    Journal: Ross Fiziol Zh Im I M Sechenova; 2003 Jan; 89(1):22-8. PubMed ID: 12669589.
    Abstract:
    In chloralose anaesthetized and paralyzed normotensive (Wistar, Wistar--Kyoto) and spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR), a somatosympathetic reflex in the cervical sympathetic trunk elicited by a single electrical shock to forelimb afferent fibres in the median nerve was recorded. It has been shown that the elicited response of SHR is similar to the response of normotensive rats. Amplitude of somatosympathetic reflex in SHR is larger than that of somatosympathetic reflex in normotensive animals. It is supposed that somatosympathetic reflex in hypertensive and normotensive rats is formed in the same way. However, reflex excitability of sympathetic nervous system in SHR is greater.
