Animal and human data indicate pathological afferent signaling emanating from the carotid body that drives sympathetically mediated elevations in blood pressure in conditions of hypertension. This first-in-man, proof-of-principle study tested the safety and feasibility of unilateral carotid body resection in 15 patients with drug-resistant hypertension. The procedure proved to be safe and feasi...
Carotid plaque is a good surrogate endpoint for assessing arterial atherosclerosis, and atherosclerosis is a reliable predictor of cardiovascular diseases. However, the effect of body mass index on carotid plaque is unknown. Therefore, we aimed to explore the association between body mass index and carotid plaque in a low-income Chinese population. Residents aged ≥45 years and free of stroke an...
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES The traditional Framingham score underestimates cardiovascular risk in certain populations. Extending its time-scale to 30 years and assessing its relationship with the presence of carotid atherosclerotic plaque may improve risk stratification. The objectives were: a) to determine the percentage of patients previously classified with the traditional score who were re...
There are three types of histological change in the carotid bodies which appear to have physiological and clinical associations. A prominence of the dark variant of chief cells with their contents of met-enkephalin and other peptides appears to be associated with acute exposure to hypoxia. Proliferation of sustentacular cells around the clusters of chief cells appears to be related to ageing an...
OBJECTIVE Chemoreceptors play an important role in the autonomic modulation of circulatory and ventilatory responses to changes in arterial O(2) and/or CO(2). However, studies evaluating hemodynamic responses to hypoxia and hypercapnia in rats have shown inconsistent results. Our aim was to evaluate hemodynamic and respiratory responses to different levels of hypoxia and hypercapnia in consciou...

Carotid body tumors are rare benign tumors of the neck but dangerous because their vascular nature and position between Internal and External carotid arteries quite sitting on the carotid bifurcation. Carotid body tumours are paragangliomas, tumors, originating from paraganglionic bodies of autonomous nerve system of the embriological neural crest and increasing gradually. Despite their gradual...
In a previous study, DBA/2J and A/J inbred mice showed extremely different hypoxic ventilatory responses, suggesting variations in their carotid bodies. We have assessed the morphological and functional differences of the carotid bodies in these mice. Histological examination revealed a clearly delineated carotid body only in the DBA/2J mice. Many typical glomus cells and glomeruli appeared in ...
The carotid surgical experience of Cheltenham General Hospital over a 13 year period (1968-81) is presented. This includes 42 operations for stenosis, and 12 further operations for carotid body tumour, carotid aneurysm, subclavian steal syndrome and trauma to the internal carotid artery. The operative techniques and complications are briefly discussed and reasons advanced for a more agressive a...
