Abstract:AimsTo investigate whether there is a change in i) basal RAR activity and ii) their responses to SP, in rabbits with HAPE.MethodsExperiments were performed in anesthetized, artificially ventilated and thoracotomized rabbits. After routine cannulations, the RAR activity was recorded from cervical vagus nerve. Increasing doses of SP were administered into the right atrium in control rabbits (C) breathing room air (n= 6) and in rabbits with HAPE (n= 6). To produce HAPE, rabbits were placed in a high altitude simu… Show more
