We assessed the relative roles of aortic (ABR), carotid sinus (CBR), and vagal cardiopulmonary baroreceptors in the reflex control of heart rate and vascular resistance during changes in arterial blood pressure. Injections of phenylephrine (PE) and nitroglycerin (NG) were given intravenously to anesthetized rabbits (chloralose-urethane). Reflex, heart rate responses were impaired significantly ...
