Kynurenic acid blocks the cardiovascular response to BMI. Time course of changes in heart rate (HR; beats/min; top) and mean arterial pressure (MAP; mmHg; bottom) in conscious, chronically instrumented rats after bilateral, intra-amygdalar coinjection of 100 pmol BMI with either xanthurenic acid (XAN) or kynurenic acid (KYN). The changes in HR and MAP for BMI + KYN (3.0 nmol) and for BMI + KYN (10 nmol) are significantly different compared with BMI + XAN and BMI + KYN (1.0 nmol). BMI + XAN and BMI + KYN (10 nmol), n = 5; all others,n = 4. HR: F(3,14) = 25.70; MAP: F(3,14) = 21.86.
