Spinal cord substance P mediates carbachol-induced cardiovascular responses from the rostral ventrolateral medulla. 1990

Intrathecal (i.t.) infusion of substance P (SP) antagonist, (D-Pro2, D-Trp7,9)-substance P (20 micrograms), lowered blood pressure profoundly without any significant change of heart rate. The hypertensive and tachycardic responses elicited by microinjection of carbachol (25 ng/site) into the bilateral rostral ventrolateral medulla (rVLM) were blocked by i.t. infusion of SP antagonist. These data provided evidence that an excitatory cardiovascular effect induced by cholinergic system in rVLM may be mediated mainly by the SP receptors in spinal cord.

D009411 Nerve Endings Branch-like terminations of NERVE FIBERS, sensory or motor NEURONS. Endings of sensory neurons are the beginnings of afferent pathway to the CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM. Endings of motor neurons are the terminals of axons at the muscle cells. Nerve endings which release neurotransmitters are called PRESYNAPTIC TERMINALS. Ending, Nerve,Endings, Nerve,Nerve Ending
