Cerebral artery mass in the rabbit is reduced by chronic sympathetic denervation.

چکیده
Weights of matching right and left middle or posterior cerebral arteries and their main branches from the same animal were compared 8-10 weeks after unilateral denervation by superior cervical ganglionectomy. When compared in pairs, the denervated arterial systems weighed significantly less (mean 85%) than their innervated counterparts. This suggests that the sympathetic innervation exerts a trophic influence on extracerebral arteries.

The Effect of Chronic Inflammation on Knee Joint Vascular β-adrenoceptors in Rabbit
It has been shown that inflammation reduces the effectiveness of sympathetic nerves in the regulation of knee joint blood flow, and the joint vascular- ß adrenoceptors are changed due to acute inflammation from a majority of ß-1 to an equality of ß-1 and ß-2 receptors.. To investigate the role of sympathetic nerves in nerve induced vasoconstriction and changes in joint vascular ß-adrenoceptors ...
متن کاملNeurogenic vasodilation of cat cerebral arteries.
Transmural nerve stimulation (TNS) with 0.3-msec pulses between 1 and 25 Hz dilated cat cerebral artery segments in the presence of active muscle tone. Maximum vasodilatation occurred at 8 Hz. The dilator response to exogenous acetylcholine, but not to TNS, was abolished by atropine. Neither physostigmine nor hemicholinium affected the dilator response to TNS, which persisted after administrati...
متن کاملAlterations in the vascular β-adrenoceptors of the rabbit knee joint due to acute inflammation
It has been shown that acute inflammation reduces the effectiveness of sympathetic nerves in the regulation of knee joint blood flow. To investigate the role of vascular β- adrenoceptors in this event, 12 NZW rabbits were maintained anaesthetized by 1 % halothane in N2O/O2, and acute knee joint inflammation was induced by intra-articular injection of 1 ml of 2% carageenan solution 24 hours be...
متن کاملLocal Sympathetic Denervation of Femoral Artery in a Rabbit Model by Using 6-Hydroxydopamine In Situ
Both artery bundle and sympathetic nerve were involved with the metabolism of bone tissues. Whether the enhancing effects of artery bundle result from its accompanying sympathetic nerve or blood supply is still unknown. There is no ideal sympathetic nerve-inhibited method for the in situ denervation of artery bundle. Therefore, we dipped the femoral artery in the 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) loca...
متن کاملEffect of sympathetic denervation on smooth muscle cell proliferation in the growing rabbit ear artery.
The effect of sympathetic denervation on the uptake of 3H-thymidine (3H-Tdr) into the ear artery of a growing rabbit was studied in vitro and in vivo. Uptake into the right artery was compared with that into the left 2 and 3 weeks after left superior cervical ganglionectomy in 4-week-old rabbits. Denervation was confirmed by the absence of catecholamine fluorescence. The total uptake of 3H--Tdr...
