Aldosterone-Sensitive Nucleus Tractus Solitarius Neurons Regulate Sensitivity of the Baroreceptor Reflex in High Sodium–Loaded Rats

Aldosterone-Sensitive Nucleus Tractus Solitarius Neurons Regulate Sensitivity of the Baroreceptor Reflex in High Sodium–Loaded Rats

We examined the role of aldosterone-sensitive neurons in the nucleus tractus solitarius (NTS) in the arterial baroreceptor reflex (baroreflex) function. Baroreflex sensitivity was induced by phenylephrine in high sodium–loaded rats and was significantly reduced. This baroreflex sensitivity was rever...
