Article Synopsis
- The study investigated heart rate responses and the effects of vagal electrical stimulation in rats after sinoaortic denervation, looking at both acute (1 day) and chronic (20 days) phases.
- In the acute phase, rats exhibited hypertension and tachycardia, while in the chronic phase, heart rate and blood pressure normalized, but blood pressure variability remained high.
- Chronic phase rats showed increased binding and affinity of muscarinic acetylcholine receptors, indicating that adaptations in the cardiac parasympathetic pathway occur as a response to baroreceptor disruption.
