Abstract:
AIM:To determine the effect of reactive oxygen species on the baroreflex and to investigate the intracellular mechanism responsible for baroreflex dysfunction in the heart failure state.METHODS:In the rat model of cardiomyocytes infarct induced heart failure,baroreflex function was evaluated by measuring the relationship between renal sympathetic nerve activity(RSNA)responses and change of blood pressure by intravenous injection of nitroglycerin and phenylephrine.Alteration in baroreflex function was measured under the different reactive oxygen species(ROS)level induced by intracerebroventricular administration of several chemicals.RESULTS:(1)The range of RSNA response,average slope and maximum gain of baroreflex function curve were(92.2?9.9) mmHg,(0.07%?0.01%)/mmHg and(1.20%?0.10%)/mmHg,respectively,in CHF rats,which were significantly lower than those in sham rats(65.6?7.4) mmHg,(0.13%?0.02%)/mmHg and(3.00%? 0.20%)/mmHg(P
