Influence of blockade of glutamate receptors in the elPBN on the discharges of rVLM cardiovascular neurons in response to stimulation of cardiac sympathetic afferent nerves (CSAN). A and B: CSAN stimulation with application of bradykinin (BK, 2 μg). C and D: electrical CSAN stimulation (E-CSAN). A and C: microinjection of artificial cerebrospinal fluid (aCSF) into the elPBN. B and D: microinjection of kynurenic acid (Kyn, 25 mM) into the elPBN. *P < 0.05, after vs. before BK stimulation. #P < 0.05, after vs. before microinjection of Kyn into the elPBN. E1 and E2 in hatched-bar histograms in D represent peristimulus histograms of an individual neuron shown in E1 and E2. Arrows in E1 and E2 indicate electrical CSAN stimulation.
