IH attenuates carotid baroreceptor responses to increased carotid sinus pressures. Examples of carotid baroreceptor response to step increase in carotid sinus pressure (20-mmHg steps) in a control (A) and IH-treated (B) rat. Bottom in A and B represents step increase in intra-carotid sinus pressure. Superimposed action potentials of a single fiber from which the data were derived are shown in the inset of A and B. C–H: average data of functional parameters of carotid baroreceptor activity in control and IH-treated rats. Data are means ± SE; n = 18 baroreceptors from 6 rats each in control and IH. Significant difference compared with control: *P < 0.05; **P < 0.01; ***P < 0.001; n.s. denotes P > 0.05 compared with control.
