The effects of systematic hypercapnia on the hindlimb perfusion pressures of acute spinal cats
Normal levels of CO₂ are responsible for the maintenance of approximately 30% of sympathetic neurogenic vascular tone in intact cats. The central medullary chemoreceptors have been implicated as the major source of this CO₂ dependent neurogenic vascular tone. However, it is possible that spinal cord...
