Figure 2. NO precursor and two NO donors in the NTS attenuate the baroreceptor reflex.

Figure 2

Group data summarising the effects of bilateral NTS microinjections of l-arginine (l-Arg, 100 pmol), diethylamine nonoate (NONOate, 500 pmol) and sodium nitroprusside (SNP, 50 pmol) on the baroreceptor reflex responses in heart rate and integrated phrenic nerve activity. The reflex cardiac response is expressed as the gain (see Methods) and data are taken from the linear part of the input-output function curve. Washout values were obtained up to 20 min after a bilateral microinjection. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001.
