Dynamic resistance exercise-induced pressor response does not alter hypercapnia-induced cerebral vasodilation in young adults
Excessive arterial pressure elevation induced by resistance exercise (RE) attenuates peripheral vasodilatory function, but its effect on...
-
Exercise pressor responses are exaggerated relative to force production during, but not following, thirty-minutes of rhythmic handgrip exercise
PurposeThis study tested the hypothesis that blood pressure responses would increase relative to force production in response to prolonged bouts of...
-
Additive influence of exercise pressor reflex activation on Valsalva responses in white and black adults
AimThis study aimed to determine if activation of the exercise pressor reflex exerts additive or redundant influences on the autonomic responses to...

Impact of the glutamatergic neurotransmission within the A5 region on the cardiorespiratory response evoked from the midbrain dlPAG
Stimulation of the dorsolateral periaqueductal grey matter (dlPAG) in rats evokes an active defensive behaviour together with a cardiorespiratory...
-
Repetitive high-sustained gravitoinertial stress does not modulate pressure responsiveness to peripheral sympathetic stimulation
PurposeWe evaluated the hypothesis that repetitive gravitoinertial stress would augment the arterial-pressure response to peripheral sympathetic...

Peri-spinal Neurovascular Response Triggered by a Painless Electrical Nerve Stimulation in Patients with Chronic Arterial Hypertension
PurposeAlterations of the central nervous system are frequent complications in patients with chronic arterial hypertension (AHT). However, functional...

Hemodynamic changes in the temporalis and masseter muscles during acute stress in healthy humans
PurposeAutonomic control of orofacial areas is an integral part of the stress response, controlling functions such as pupil dilatation, salivation,...
-
Impact of acute mental stress on ankle blood pressure in young healthy men: a pilot study
ObjectiveAcute mental stress (MS) increases arm blood pressure (BP); however, it remains unclear whether a stress-induced pressor response is also...

Cardiovascular Responses to Exercise in Diabetes
Individuals with diabetes are commonly encouraged to participate in regular exercise or physical activity to help manage their disease and protect...

Circuit-Specific Control of Blood Pressure by PNMT-Expressing Nucleus Tractus Solitarii Neurons
The nucleus tractus solitarii (NTS) is one of the morphologically and functionally defined centers that engage in the autonomic regulation of...

Evaluation of tradipitant, a selective NK1 antagonist, on response to oxycodone in humans
RationalePreclinical studies demonstrate that the NK1 receptor is involved in opioid reinforcement and withdrawal expression. Few studies have...

The effect of aging on carotid artery wall mechanics during maximal resistance exercise
IntroductionAge-related stiffening of the large elastic arteries (e.g., common carotid artery [CCA]) may impair wall dynamics (i.e., strain) and...

Effects of alpha-adrenergic receptor blockade on coronary circulation in postmenopausal women
We sought to investigate the effect of the α1-adrenergic receptor blockade during handgrip exercise (Grip), isolated metaboreflex activation...

Uncovering the neural control of laryngeal activity and subglottic pressure in anaesthetized rats: insights from mesencephalic regions
To assess the possible interactions between the dorsolateral periaqueductal gray matter (dlPAG) and the different domains of the nucleus ambiguus...

TNFα Triggers an Augmented Inflammatory Response in Brain Neurons from Dahl Salt-Sensitive Rats Compared with Normal Sprague Dawley Rats
Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF)-α is a proinflammatory cytokine (PIC) and has been implicated in a variety of illness including cardiovascular disease....

Dynamic cerebral autoregulation in anterior and posterior cerebral circulation during cold pressor test
We hypothesized that cerebral blood flow (CBF) regulation in the posterior circulation differs from that of the anterior circulation during a cold...
-
Acute self-myofascial release modulates cardiac autonomic function and hemodynamic parameters at rest and reduces cardiovascular stress reaction
PurposeSelf-myofascial release (SMR) is a form of self-massage aiming to release tension, improve blood flow, and alleviate muscle soreness. This...

Chemical Stimulation of Renal Tissue Induces Sympathetic Activation and a Pressor Response via the Paraventricular Nucleus in Rats
Sympathetic activation and the kidney play critical roles in hypertension and chronic heart failure. The role of the kidney in sympathetic activation...

Stress-induced HPA activation in virtual navigation and spatial attention performance
BackgroundPrevious research has shown that spatial performance (e.g. navigation, visuospatial memory, attention) can be influenced by acute stress;...

Ischemic preconditioning of the muscle reduces the metaboreflex response of the knee extensors
PurposeThis study investigated the effect of ischemic preconditioning (IP) on metaboreflex activation following dynamic leg extension exercise in a...
