The effect of bombesin (5 ng/kg/min X 2.5 h) on basal pituitary secretion as well as on the response to thyrotropin releasing hormone (TRH; 200 micrograms) plus luteinizing hormone releasing hormone (LHRH; 100 micrograms) was studied in healthy male volunteers. The peptide did not change the basal level of growth hormone (GH), prolactin, thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH). On the contrary, the pituitary response to releasing hormones was modified by bombesin administration. When compared with control (saline) values, prolactin and TSH levels after TRH were lower during bombesin infusion, whereas LH and FSH levels after LHRH were higher. Thus bombesin affects in man, as in experimental animals, the secretion of some pituitary hormones.  相似文献

This study examined hypertrophy after head extension resistance training to assess which muscles of the complicated cervical neuromuscular system were used in this activity. We also determined if conventional resistance exercises, which are likely to evoke isometric action of the neck, induce generalized hypertrophy of the cervical muscle. Twenty-two active college students were studied. [mean (SE) age, weight and height: 21 (1) years, 71 (4) kg and 173 (3) cm, respectively]. Subjects were assigned to one of three groups: RESX (head extension exercise and other resistance exercises), RES (resistance exercises without specific neck exercise), or CON (no training). Groups RESX (n = 8) and RES (n = 6) trained 3 days/week for 12 weeks with large-muscle mass exercises (squat, deadlift, push press, bent row and mid-thigh pull). Group RESX also performed three sets of ten repetitions of a head extension exercise 3 days/week with a load equal to the 3 × 10 repetition maximum (RM). Group CON (n = 8) was a control group. The cross-sectional area (CSA) of nine individual muscles or muscle groups was determined by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the cervical region. The CSA data were averaged over four contiguous transaxial slices in which all muscles of interest were visible. The 3 × 10 RM for the head extension exercise increased for RESX after training [from 17.9 (1.0) to 23.9 (1.4) kg, P < 0.05] but not for RES [from 17.6 (1.4) to 17.7 (1.9)␣kg] or CON [from 10.1 (2.2) to 10.3 (2.1) kg]. RESX showed an increase in total neck muscle CSA after training [from 19.5 (3.0) to 22.0 (3.6) cm2, P < 0.05], but RES and CON did not [from 19.6 (2.9) to 19.7 (2.9)␣cm2 and 17.0 (2.5) to 17.0 (2.4) cm2, respectively]. This hypertrophy for RESX was due mainly to increases in CSA of 23.9 (3.2), 24.0 (5.8), and 24.9 (5.3)% for the splenius capitis, and semispinalis capitis and cervicis muscles, respectively. The lack of generalized neck muscle hypertrophy in RES was not due to insufficient training. For example, the CSA of their quadriceps femoris muscle group, as assessed by MRI, increased by 7 (1)% after this short-term training (P < 0.05). The results suggest that: (1) the splenius capitis, and semispinalis capitis and cervicis muscles are mainly responsible for head extension; (2) short-term resistance training does not provide a sufficient stimulus to evoke neck muscle hypertrophy unless specific neck exercises are performed; and (3) the postural role of head extensors provides modest loading in bipeds.

Eight fit men [maximum oxygen consumption (O2max) 64.6 (1.9) ml · kg−1 · min−1, aged 28.3 (1.7) years (SE in parentheses) were studied during two treadmill exercise trials to determine the effect of endogenous opioids on insulin and glucagon immunoreactivity during intense exercise (80% O2max). A double-blind experimental design was used with subjects undertaking the two exercise trials in counterbalanced order. Exercise trials were 20 min in duration and were conducted 7 days apart. One exercise trial was undertaken following administration of naloxone (N; 1.2 mg; 3 ml) and the other after receiving a placebo (P; 0.9% NaCl saline; 3 ml). Prior to each experimental trial a flexible catheter was placed into an antecubital vein and baseline blood samples were collected. Immediately after, each subject received either a N or P bolus injection. Blood samples were also collected after 20 min of continuous exercise (running). Glucagon was higher (P < 0.05), while insulin was lower (P < 0.05), during exercise compared with pre-exercise values in both trials. However, glucagon was higher (P < 0.05) in the P than in the N exercise trial [141.4 (8.3) ng · l−1 vs 127.2 (7.6) ng · l−1]. There were no differences in insulin during exercise between the P and N trials [50.2 (4.3) pmol · l−1 vs 43.8 (5) pmol · l−1]. These data suggest that endogenous opioids may augment the glucagon response during intense exercise. Accepted: 15 June 1996  相似文献

 To investigate the role of fluid shifts during the short-term adjustment to acute hypobaric hypoxia (AHH), the changes in lower limb (LV) and forearm volumes (FV) were measured using a strain-gauge plethysmograph technique in ten healthy volunteers exposed to different altitudes (450 m, 2500 m, 3500 m, 4500 m) in a hypobaric chamber. Arterial blood pressure, heart rate, arterial oxygen saturation (S aO2), endtidal gases, minute ventilation and urine flow were also determined. A control experiment was performed with an analogous protocol under normobaric normoxic conditions. The results showed mean decreases both in LV and FV of −0.52 (SD 0.39) ml · 100 ml−1 and −0.65 (SD 0.32) ml · 100 ml−1, respectively, in the hypoxia experiments [controls: LV −0.28 (SD 0.37), FV −0.41 (SD 0.47) ml · 100 ml−1]. Descent to normoxia resulted in further small but not significant decreases in mean LV [−0.02 (SD 0.11) ml · 100 ml−1], whereas mean FV tended to increase slightly [ + 0.02 (SD 0.14) ml · 100 ml−1]; in the control experiments mean LV and FV decreased continuously during the corresponding times [−0.19 (SD 0.31), −0.18 (SD 0.10) ml · 100 ml−1, respectively]. During the whole AHH, mean urine flow increased significantly from 0.84 (SD 0.41) ml · min−1 to 3.29 (SD 1.43) ml · min−1 in contrast to the control conditions. We concluded that peripheral fluid volume shifts form a part of the hypoxia-induced acute cardiovascular changes at high altitude. In contrast to the often reported formation of peripheral oedema after prolonged exposure to hypobaric hypoxia, the results provided no evidence for the development of peripheral oedema during acute induction to high altitude. However, the marked increase in interindividual variance in S aO2 and urine flow points to the appearance of the first differences in the short-term adjustment even after 2 h of acute hypobaric hypoxia.

 In humans, the serum concentration of parathyroid hormone (PTH) is higher in winter than in summer. The increase of PTH can be suppressed by oral vitamin D supplements, which is considered beneficial to those with osteoporosis. The present study investigates whether this effect can also be achieved by serial ultraviolet (UV) irradiation of the skin. In total, 34 women suffering from postmenopausal osteoporosis were included in the open trial. In late winter, 20 patients were irradiated with a spectrum containing UVB, eight times over a period of 4 weeks. The serum concentrations of 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D], 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D [1,25(OH)2D], PTH, osteocalcin, alkaline phosphatase (AP), calcium and phosphorus were measured before the first, and 2 days after the last, dose of radiation. The data were compared to the controls (n=14, no UV exposure), who were evaluated once at the start of the study and then again 4 weeks later. After UV irradiation the level of 25(OH)D was increased, whilst that of PTH remained unchanged. The serum level of osteocalcin decreased in the control group, but did not change in the group of women who had been exposed to UV radiation. The present study of osteoporotic women does not confirm previous findings in studies of healthy volunteers i.e. that PTH can be suppressed by exposure to UVB radiation in winter. Further studies are required to specify whether there are subgroups of osteoporotic people who may benefit from exposure to UVB radiation during winter.

The aim of this study was to quantify the degenerative and regenerative changes in rat soleus muscle resulting from 3-week hindlimb suspension at 45° tilt (HS group, n = 8) and 4-week normal cage recovery (HS-R group, n = 7). Degenerative changes were quantified by microscope examination of muscle cross sections, and the myosin heavy chain (MHC) composition of soleus muscles was studied by sodium dodecyl sulphate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. At the end of 3-week hindlimb suspension, histological signs of muscle degenerative changes were detected in soleus muscles. There was a significant variability in the percentage of fibres referred to as degenerating (%dg) in individual animals in the HS group [%dg = 8.41 (SEM 0.5)%, range 4.66%–14.08%]. Moreover, %dg varied significantly along the length of the soleus muscle. The percentage of fibres with internal nuclei was less than %dg in HS-soleus muscles [4.12 (SEM 0.3)%, range 1.24%–8.86%]. In 4-week recovery rats, the greater part of the fibres that were not referred to as normal, retained central nuclei [15.8 (SEM 2.2)%, range 6.2%–21.1%]. A significant increase in the slow isoform of MHC was recorded in the HS-R rats, compared to muscles from age-matched rats (P < 0.01). These results would suggest that a cycle of myofibre degeneration-regeneration occurred during HS and passive recovery, and that the increased accumulation of slow MHC observed in soleus muscles after recovery from HS could be related to the prevalence of newly formed fibres.

 Maximal voluntary strength of simultaneous bilateral exertion has been shown to be small compared to the sum of the unilateral exertions. Three experiments were conducted to determine the effects of bilateral and unilateral resistance training on this bilateral deficit and to compare these in hands, arms, and legs. In each experiment, the subjects were divided into three groups: unilateral training group, bilateral training group, and control group. The subjects of the training group performed maximal isometric handgrip training in experiment I, and maximal isokinetic arm and leg extension training in experiments II and III. In each experiment, the subjects of the training group continued one of these resistance training exercises three times a week, for 6 weeks. The increase in handgrip strength of the bilateral training group produced in the bilateral condition [5.1 (SEM 2.4)%, after 3 weeks, 6.4 (SEM 2.3) %, after 6 weeks] was significantly greater compared with the control group [−1.1 (SEM 1.0) %, after 3 weeks, −1.5 (SEM 1.1) %, after 6 weeks. The increase in leg extension power of the bilateral training group produced in the bilateral condition [16.1 (SEM 9.6) %, after 3 weeks, 24.1 (SEM 7.4) %, after 6 weeks] was significantly greater compared with the unilateral training group [−5.0 (SEM 3.4) %, after 3 weeks, −3.4 (SEM 4.2) %, after 6 weeks] and the control group [−4.3 (SEM 2.5) %, after 3 weeks, 1.5 (SEM 5.5) %, after 6 weeks]. The increase in handgrip strength of the unilateral training group produced in the unilateral condition [7.3 (SEM 1.7) %, after 3 weeks] was significantly greater compared with the control group [−0.9 (SEM 1.8) %, after 3 weeks]. The increase in arm extension power of the unilateral training group produced in the unilateral condition [7.2 (SEM 1.8) %, after 6 weeks] was significantly greater compared with the bilateral training group [−3.0 (SEM 2.3) %, after 6 weeks] and the control group [−2.1 (SEM 2.6) %, after 6 weeks]. Bilateral indexes (BI) were shifted in a positive direction by bilateral training and tended to shift in a negative direction by unilateral training. With regard to the magnitude of change in BI, there were no significant differences among handgrip, arm extension, and leg extension training. It is suggested that there is lateral specificity in resistance training and that there is no difference among body parts in the modification of bilateral deficit by lateral training.

We used a genetic assay to monitor the behavior of sister chromatids during the cell cycle. We show that the ability to induce sister chromatid exchanges (SCE) with ionizing radiation is maximal in budded cells with undivided nuclei and then decreases prior to nuclear division. SCE can be induced in cells arrested in G2 using either nocodazole or cdc mutants. These data show that sister chromatids have two different states prior to nuclear division. We suggest that the sister chromatids of cir. III, a circular derivative of chromosome III, separate (anaphase A) prior to spindle elongation (anaphase B). Other interpretations are also discussed. SCE can be induced in cdc mutants that arrest in G2 and in nocodazole-treated cells, suggesting that mitotic checkpoints arrest cells prior to sister chromatid separation.

The influence of the increased cerebral blood flow (CBF) induced by acetazolamide on tympanic temperature (T ty) was examined in three healthy male volunteers and in five patients with subacute subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH). The CBF was estimated by means of stable xenon-enhanced computed tomography before and after the administration of acetazolamide. The T ty was recorded continuously in both ears using thermistor thermometers. In all subjects, CBF increased ranging from 11% to 108% after acetazolamide administration. In all the healthy subjects and in two patients with mild SAH, T ty was higher than the oesophageal temperature (T oes) and T ty decreased bilaterally, ranging from 0.07 to 0.35°C as CBF increased. Three patients with severe SAH were febrile, their T oes exceeding T ty, and their T ty rose by 0.30 to 0.53°C with increased CBF. These observations suggest that T ty follows brain temperature which changes with an increase in CBF in euthermic subjects as well as in febrile subjects. Accepted: 3 September 1996  相似文献

Ten young (aged 23–30 years) and nine older (aged 54–59 years) healthy men with a similar size of limb muscle mass performed arm crank and leg cycle exercise for 30 min at relative exercise intensities of 50% and 75% of maximal oxygen uptake for the corresponding muscle group. In the tests, heart rate, blood pressure, gas exchange variables, rating of perceived exertion and blood lactate concentration were measured. The limb muscle mass was determined by anthropometric measurements. At the 75% target exercise level, four of the older men and two of the young men could not complete the arm-cranking test, and one of the older men and two of the young men could not complete the leg-cycle test. During arm-cranking the absolute exercise intensity was similar for the young and older men because of similar maximal values during arm-cranking. But during leg-cycling the absolute excercise intensity was higher for the young men than for the older men due to the difference in corresponding maximal values. During arm-cranking there were no significant differences in the physiological responses between the age groups except that a higher ventilatory response was noted among the older compared to the young men. During leg-cycling the heart rate values were higher among the young compared to the older men. But, when the heart rate values were expressed as a percentage of maximal heart rate in the corresponding maximal tests, no significant differences between the age groups were found. The results indicated that 30-min of arm or leg exercise at the same relative submaximal excercise intensity produces a similar degree of physiological strain in healthy older compared to young men. During arm-cranking, the young and the older men exercised at the same external intensity, indicating a similar ability to perform prolonged excercise using smaller muscle groups expressed both in absolute and relative terms.

The hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal axis is involved throughout the exercise-recovery cycle. Nevertheless, differences in hormone responses during early recovery between sedentary and endurance trained subjects are not well known. The aim of this preliminary study was to monitor plasma cortisol and adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) concentrations both during and after the end of running exercise performed by four endurance trained adults (marathon men) compared to four sedentary subjects. Two parameters, i.e. intensity and duration, were changed on 4 consecutive days. The 1st day (D0) was spent in the laboratory: all blood samples were obtained at rest to determine diurnal variations of each hormone. On the following days (D1–D4) the subjects exercised: D1 and D2 brief (20 min), light (50% maximal heart rate HRmax, D1) or strenuous (80% HRmax, D2), D3 and D4 prolonged (120 min), light (D3) or strenuous (D4). In both groups, neither brief (D1, D2) nor prolonged light exercise (D3) induced any significant variation in plasma ACTH or cortisol concentrations. Plasma ACTH and cortisol concentrations increased only if the exercise was intense and prolonged (D4). The training factor did not modify the intensity or duration thresholds for the activation of the pituitary-adrenocortical response to exercise in the conditions of our experiment. However, during immediate recovery from the four exercise regimens, the plasma ACTH concentrations of the marathon men were constantly above the values of the sedentary subjects, although plasma cortisol concentration remained similar in both groups. As an indirect means of evaluating the relationships between ACTH and cortisol we compared the areas under the cortisol and ACTH curves (AUC) from 0.5 to 3.5h during recovery from D1 to D4 compared to D0 at the same time. Cortisol AUC were similar in the sedentary subjects and marathon men although the ACTH AUC were different in the sedentary subjects and marathon men, suggesting a change in the pituitary-adrenal relationship at some yet indeterminate level. During the immediate recovery from exercise whatever its intensity, the magnitude of the ACTH response was increased in the trained subjects but with a reduced effect upon its target, the adrenal glands. This phenomenon has not been described in the literature. Two non-exclusive phenomena may be involved, i.e. a decreased adrenal sensitivity to ACTH stimulation, and/or a decreased hypothalamo-pituitary axis sensitivity to cortisol negative feedback.

Although Alpine newts (Triturus alpestris) are found at altitudes up to 2500 m, their larvae proved to be extremely sensitive to UV radiation when exposed in clear tapwater to natural sunlight or to comparable artificial UV-B radiation in the laboratory. The experiments revealed severe skin damages (lysis of epithelial cells) and mortality after a few days of exposure. In their natural habitats above the timberline, however, the larvae are protected by the high concentration of dissolved organic carbon in the water leading to an almost complete absorption of UV radiation within the first few centimeters of the water layer. Furthermore, when exposed to UV radiation larvae show erratic swimming activities that may carry them into protected areas. Only in very shallow natural habitats did we detect sublethal UV-like histological effects. Shallow high mountain ponds with clear water normally lack newt populations, probably as a consequence of both low temperature and the effects of UV radiation.

We investigated the effect of training and racing at moderate altitude (MA) on oxidative stress by assessment of serum diene conjugation (DC) and serum antioxidant potential (TRAP). Nine male top level skiers were studied during a national race (20–30 km) at sea level (SL). Thereafter, the athletes trained for 2 weeks at MA, after which they participated in a 20–30 km race at MA. Venous blood samples were taken before and after the race. The DC, indicating early events of lipid peroxi dation, did not change during the race at SL (16 850 vs 15 900 ΔAbsorbance · l−1) or at MA (19 870 vs. 20 630 ΔAbs · l−1). At MA serum DC was higher than at SL both before (25%) and after (30%) the race, the postrace difference being statistically significant (P < 0.05). The TRAP increased during the race at MA (from 1387 to 1943 μmol · 1−1, P  =  0.016), but not at SL (1713 vs 1582 μmol · l−1). These observations would suggest that the level of oxidative stress might be greater during living, training and racing at MA (higher DC levels). Increased TRAP during the race at MA may indicate that the physiological adaptation to extreme acute oxidative stress was altered. The physiological significance of this observation remains to be investigated. Accepted: 18 October 1996  相似文献

By combining the amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) technique with selective genotyping, we constructed a linkage map for rice and assigned each linkage group to a corresponding chromosome. The AFLP map, consisting of 202 AFLP markers, was generated from 74 recombinant inbred lines (RIL) which were selected from both extremes of the population (250 lines) with respect to the response to complete submergence. Map length was 1756 cM, with an average interval size of 8.5 cM. To assign linkage groups to chromosomes, we used 50 previously mapped AFLP markers as anchor markers distributed over the 12 chromosomes. Other AFLP markers were then assigned to specific chromosomes based on their linkage to anchor markers. This AFLP map is equivalent to the RFLP/AFLP map constructed previously as the anchors were in the same order in both maps. Furthermore, tests with two restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) markers and two sequence-tagged site (STS) markers showed that they mapped in the expected positions. Using this AFLP map, a major gene for submergence tolerance was localized on chromosome 9. Quantitative trait loci (QTL) associated with submergence tolerance were detected on chromosomes 6, 7, 11, and 12. We conclude that the combination of AFLP mapping and selective genotyping provides a much faster and easier approach to QTL identification than the use of RFLP markers.

1. To determine whether microvillous olfactory receptor cells mediate responses to pheromonal cues, the olfactory nerves of mature male goldfish were axotomized and both the olfactory and behavioral sensitivity of these animals to olfactory stimuli investigated after which the histological condition of their olfactory epithelia was determined. 2. Behavioral responsiveness to food odor returned within 2 weeks but responsiveness to sexually-active females (pheromones) took 4–10 weeks to return. 3. Electro-olfactogram recordings from the olfactory epithelium of axotomized fish found that olfactory responsiveness to amino acids and pheromones changed little during the first week subsequent to axotomy. However, olfactory sensitivity decreased rapidly during the second week. During the course of the third week, electro-olfactogram sensitivity to amino acids remained while exposure to pheromones evoked no recordable electro-olfactogram. During week 4, sensitivity to amino acids increased further, and weak sensitivity to some pheromones became evident. Further recovery of electro-olfactogram sensitivity to all odorants was slow and erratic over the next 6 months, particularly to the pheromones. 4. Histological examination of the olfactory epithelia of axotomized fish demonstrated that while ciliated receptor cells were present within 2 weeks, microvillous receptor cells took approximately 4 weeks to regenerate. 5. Together these data suggest that microvillous receptor cells mediate responsiveness to pheromones in this species. Accepted: 22 August 1996  相似文献

Integrated electromyography (iEMG) of the m. vastus lateralis was analysed during cycle ergometry in male subjects (n = 8). Two work trials were conducted, one under normoxia (N), the other under environmental normobaric hypoxia (EH in which the oxygen fraction in inspired gas = 0.116), each trial lasting 10 min. The absolute power output (180 W) was the same for both trials and was equivalent to 77 (4)% of maximum heart rate in trial N. Maximal voluntary isometric contractions were performed after each trial to assess changes in force, muscle fibre conduction velocity (MFCV), electromechanical delay (EMD), median frequency of EMG (MF) and maximal iEMG (iEMGmax). Biopy samples of muscle were obtained from the m. vastus medialis before testing. Myosin heavy chain (MHC) differences were determined through sodium dodecyl-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis followed by densitometric analysis. No differences in submaximal iEMG were observed between EH and N trials during the first minute of work. At the end of both work trials iEMG was significantly elevated compared with starting values, however the iEMG recorded in EH exceeded N values by 15%. At the end of the EH trials the following were observed: a decrease in isometric force, MFCV and MF with an increase in EMD and the iEMGmax/force ratio. The iEMGmax was unchanged. No differences in any of these variables were observed after the N trial. Mean (SD) lactate concentrations following EH and N trials were 9.2 (4.4) mmol · 1−1 and 3.5 (1.1) mmol · 1−1, respectively. Results indicate that an increased motor unit recruitment and rate coding was needed in EH to maintain the required power output. The increased motor unit recruitment and rate coding were associated with myoelectric evidence of “peripheral” muscle fatigue. Subjects with higher compositions of type II MHC accumulated more lactate and displayed greater reductions in MF and MFCV during fatigue. Accepted: 16 June 1996  相似文献

Food web statistics showed a complex relationship with measures of habitat variability in temporary ponds. Connectance was highest in short-duration, highly variable habitats, and lowest in habitats of intermediate duration and variability. The number of links and links/taxon increased with increasing duration. Much of the variation in the food web statistics could be explained by a strong linear relationship between number of taxa and number of links/taxon and a quadratic relationship of taxa number with the number of links. However, after accounting for this variation, there remained a relationship of duration with links and links/taxon. The relationship between the food web statistics and duration corresponded to experimental evaluations of predation in these habitats that showed an increasing importance of predation in long-duration habitats. The food web statistics, however, missed threshold effects in the relationship between predation and habitat duration. Differences in food web statistics before and after a regional drought could be explained by a decrease in taxa number after the drought. Connectance was the most robust statistic in relation to taxa number, but was also the least sensitive to changes in habitat characteristics.

The purpose of this work was to show that regulation of the blood flow to the cochlea by the sympathetic nervous system occurs in humans at the level of the cochlear microcirculation during increases in blood pressure and that its involvement depends on the pressure level. Eight anaesthetized patients undergoing tympanoplasty for hearing disease took part in a pharmacological protocol of stimulation and inhibition of the autonomic nervous system (ANS) to provide variations in systolic blood pressure (BPS) and cochlear blood flow (CBF). The CBF was measured by laser-Doppler flowmetry. Changes in autonomic nerve activity were brought about by changes in baroreceptor activity (BR) initiated by the injection of an α adrenergic agent before and after sympathetic and parasympathetic blockade. The CBF variations (δCBF) were plotted against BPS increases at each stage of the ANS inhibition. The BR diminished significantly after α blockade, after α and β blockade, and after α and β blockade and atropine, by 50% (P < 0.01), 29% (P < 0.05), and 95% (P < 0.001) respectively. The BPS increased significantly (P < 0.01) by 36 (SD 9)%, 47 (SD 1)%, and 67 (SD 16)% respectively. The CBF response to an increase in BPS exhibited two opposing variations in the patients: CBF decreased significantly in one group, and increased significantly in the other group. In both groups, δCBF decrease and δCBF increase, respectively, were significant after ANS blockade; even so the decrease and increase, respectively, levelled off at BPS around 160 mmHg before ANS blockade. For BPS below 160 mmHg, correlations between δCBF and BPS were significant before inhibition and after inhibition of ANS. For BPS above 160 mmHg, BPS and δCBF were not correlated before inhibition of ANS, and were significantly correlated after inhibition of ANS. For BPS below 160 mmHg, CBF response to the BPS increase was the same before and after ANS blockade, i.e. ANS control did not predominate; even so, for BPS above 160 mmHg, the CBF response to BPS increase was different before and after ANS blockade: CBF varied significantly after ANS blockade as it varied for BPS below 160 mmHg, while it remained constant before ANS blockade that elicited ANS control of CBF. In conclusion, sympathetic nerve regulation via its vasomotor tone at the level of cochlear microcirculation occurred markedly when the blood pressure was above 160 mmHg; the autonomic nervous system would appear to control the cochlear blood flow against large variations in blood flow in response to hypertensive phenomena.
