摘要
Cardiovascular effects of activation of opioid receptor like receptors (ORL1 receptors) in the nucleus ambiguus were studied in urethane-anesthetized, adult male Wistar rats. Microinjections of nociceptin (0.31, 0.62, 1.25 and 2.25 mmol/L) into the nucleus ambiguus elicited increases in heart rate (17.5 +/- 4, 33.3 +/- 2.9, 16.5 +/- 1.5 and 13.9 +/- 2.7 beats/min, respectively) which were blocked by an ORL1 receptor antagonist. These results indicate that activation of ORL1 receptors in the nucleus ambiguus elicits tachycardia. (c) 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
