“…At a molecular level, several mechanisms such as endoplasmic reticulum stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, and redoxsensitive transcriptional factors have all been attributed to brain-derived Ang II promoting neurogenic hypertension and baroreflex impairment (Nautiyal et al, 2013;Coble et al, 2015;Young and Davisson, 2015;Case et al, 2017). An increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels in the brainstem cardioregulatory centers is a crucial step by which Ang II is able to augment multiple cardiovascular parameters such as sympathetic tone, heart rate, and water intake (Zimmerman et al, 2002(Zimmerman et al, , 2004Nozoe et al, 2008;Chan and Chan, 2012).…”
