Popis: | Connections between the midbrain dorsolateral periaqueductal grey (dlPAG) and the pontine A5 region have been shown. The stimulation of both regions evokes similar cardiovascular responses: tachycardia and hypertension. Accordingly, we have studied the interactions between dlPAG and A5 region in spontaneously breathing anesthetized rats. dlPAG was electrically stimulated (20–30 μA 1-ms pulses were given for 5 s at 100 Hz). Changes in the evoked cardiorespiratoy response were analysed before and after ipsilateral microinjections of muscimol (GABAergic agonist, 50 nl, 0.25 nmol, 5 s) within the A5 region. Electrical stimulation of the dlPAG produces, in the rat, a response characterized by tachypnoea (p |
