Popis: The effects of intravenous administration of guanethidine and guanethidine plus atropine on the reflex vasodilatation induced in the perfused hindlimb by the electrostimulation of the sinus nerve were studied in dogs. Guanethidine induced a marked decrease in the reflex response of the perfused hindlimb. Moreover, the following administration of atropine completely abolished the hemodynamic response to the sinus nerve stimulation. These findings suggest that the cholinergic system is involved, along with the sympathetic and the histaminegic system, in the genesis of the reflex vasodilatation produced by the electrostimulation of the sinus nerve.
