Involvement of catecholaminergic medullary pathways in cardiovascular responses to acute changes in circulating volume

Water deprivation and hypernatremia are major challenges for water and sodium homeostasis. Cellular integrity requires maintenance of water and sodium concentration within narrow limits. This regulation is obtained through engagement of multiple mechanisms and neural pathways that regulate the volum...
