"We now have evidence that brain ACE2 plays a critical role in baroreceptor reflex function and , consequently, in the prevention of hypertension," says Dr. Xia.
Exactly how the baroreceptor reflex works has been a mystery for nearly 100 years, though. “For example, when you stand up, your blood pressure normally drops – rapidly,” a statement from ...
Introduction: The baroreceptor reflex (BR) is the most prominent short-term compensator during blood pressure (BP) challenges. Aim: To study the effect of postconceptional age (PCA, gestational ...
The baroreceptor reflex--sometimes referred to simply as the baroreflex--helps maintain a steady blood pressure by changing heart rate or resistance in the blood vessels.
The Bainbridge reflex acts in opposition to the carotid baroreceptor reflex which increases heart rate when the stretch is decreased in states of hypotension or hypovolemia.
The baroreceptor reflex is a fascinating medical phenomenon. The reflex is controlled by specialized neurons that react in just a fraction of a second to keep blood pressure fairly consistent. For ...
