Article Synopsis
- Carotid bodies are chemoreceptors that help regulate breathing by monitoring blood oxygen, carbon dioxide, and pH levels, and their increased activity is linked to high blood pressure.
- Researchers used a dual-mode ultrasound array system to safely ablate the carotid bodies in spontaneously hypertensive rats, utilizing advanced imaging techniques for precise targeting and monitoring of the treatment.
- The study found that targeting the carotid bodies with focused ultrasound could potentially lower blood pressure, indicating the need for further research in larger animal models and clinical trials in humans.
