Intravenous B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) enhances the bradycardia of reflexes from the heart, including the von Bezold-Jarisch reflex, but its site of action is unknown. The peptide is unlikely to penetrate the blood-brain barrier but could act on afferent or efferent reflex pathways. To investigate the latter, two types of experiment were performed on urethane-anesthetized (1.4 g/kg iv) rats. First, the activity was recorded extracellularly from single cardiac vagal motoneurons (CVMs) in the nucleus ambiguus. CVMs were identified by antidromic activation from the cardiac vagal branch and by their barosensitivity. Phenyl biguanide (PBG), injected via the right atrium in bolus doses of 1-5 mug to evoke the von Bezold-Jarisch reflex, caused a dose-related increase in CVM activity and bradycardia. BNP infusion (25 pmol.kg(-1).min(-1) iv) significantly enhanced both the CVM response to PBG (n = 5 rats) and the reflex bradycardia, but the log-linear relation between those two responses over a range of PBG doses was unchanged by BNP. The reflex bradycardia was not enhanced in five matched time-control rats receiving only vehicle infusions. In five other rats the cervical vagi were cut and the peripheral right vagus was stimulated supramaximally at frequencies of 1-20 Hz. The bradycardic responses to these stimuli were unchanged before, during, and after BNP infusion. We conclude that systemic BNP in a moderate dose enhances the von Bezold-Jarisch reflex activation of CVM, in parallel with the enhanced reflex bradycardia. That enhancement is due entirely to an action before the vagal efferent arm of the reflex pathway.  相似文献

The usefulness of selective inhibitors of type 4 phosphodiesterase (PDE4) in the treatment of inflammation and pulmonary diseases is limited by their side effects: nausea and vomiting. We studied the effect of three structurally diverse PDE4 inhibitors on the vagal nerve afferent and efferent fibers in anesthetized rats. The effects of RS14203, (R)-rolipram, and CT-2450 were evaluated on the von Bezold-Jarisch reflex (vagal afferent fibers) and in a model of vagal electrical stimulation (vagal efferent fibers). All three PDE4 inhibitors were administered at 1, 10, or 100 microg/kg (iv) 15 min prior to the induction of bradycardia by an iv injection of 2-methyl-5-HT (von Bezold-Jarisch reflex) or by vagal electrical stimulation. At 100 microg/kg, RS14203 significantly potentiated the 2-methyl-5-HT response. No statistically significant effects were observed with (R)-rolipram or CT-2450 at the doses studied. RS14203, (R)-rolipram, or CT-2450 (1-100 microg/kg iv) did not affect the bradycardia induced by vagal electrical stimulation. Consequently, our results show that RS14203 selectively facilitates serotoninergic neurotransmission in vagal afferent fibers. The emetic action of RS14203 may be mediated by this mechanism.  相似文献

The effects of hypothalamic stimulation on cardiac reflexes have been investigated in the cod Gadus morhua and frog Rana temporaria. Cardiac reflexes were elicited by electrical stimulation of the medullar vagal lobes in fishes and central end of cardiac vagal branch in frogs. During simultaneous or successive stimulation of the hypothalamic region and vagal structures, modulation of the reflexes was observed. Reflex bradycardia was either augmented or inhibited, indicating the corresponding pattern of hypothalamic influences. No correlation was found between the parameters of stimulation, reflex intensity, hypothalamic region and the pattern of modulating influences. The data obtained suggest the existence of opposite modulating influences of the hypotalamic region upon parasympathetic reflexes in the heart of fishes and frogs.  相似文献

家兔Bezold—Jarisch反射的血流动力学效应   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
在40只麻醉兔,观察经冠脉内注射尼古丁诱发Bezold-Jarisch反射时的血流动力学变化。反射效应表现为心率减慢、动脉血压和左心室收缩压降低以及左心室内压微分值减小。切断两侧窦神经和减压神经后,上述效应增强;两侧迷走神经切断后,多数动物反射效应消失。 冠脉内注射尼古丁后,心输出量和总外周阻力均下降。人工起搏心脏以防止心率减慢时,对上述效应无明显影响。动物阿托品化并切除两侧星状神经节后,心率减慢基本消失,但动脉血压降低的程度并无明显变化。结果提示,Bezold-Jarisch反射时所表现的动脉血压降低,可归因于心输出量减少和总外周阻力降低,而以后者为主。  相似文献

Stimulation of cardiopulmonary receptors with phenylbiguanide (PBG) elicits depressor cardiovascular reflex responses, including decreases in blood pressure and heart rate mediated in part by the brain stem parasympathetic cardiac neurons in the nucleus ambiguus (NAmb). The present study examined NAmb neurotransmitter mechanisms underlying the influence of electroacupuncture (EA) on the PBG-induced hypotension and bradycardia. We hypothesized that somatic stimulation during EA modulates PBG responses through opioid and γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) modulation in the NAmb. Anesthetized and ventilated cats were studied during repeated stimulation with PBG or cardiac vagal afferents while low-frequency EA (2 Hz) was applied at P5-6 acupoints overlying the median nerve for 30 min and NAmb neuronal activity, heart rate, and blood pressure were recorded. Microinjection of kainic acid into the NAmb attenuated the PBG-induced bradycardia from -60 ± 11 to -36 ± 11 beats/min. Likewise, EA reduced the PBG-induced depressor and bradycardia reflex by 52 and 61%, respectively. Cardiac vagal afferent evoked preganglionic cellular activity in the NAmb was reduced by EA for about 60 min. Blockade of opioid or GABA(A) receptors using naloxone and gabazine reversed the EA-related modulation of the evoked cardiac vagal activity by 73 and 53%, respectively. Similarly, naloxone and gabazine reversed EA modulation of the negative chronotropic responses from -11 ± 5 to -23 ± 6 and -13 ± 4 to -24 ± 3 beats/min, respectively. Thus EA at P5-6 decreases PBG evoked hypotension and bradycardia as well as the NAmb PBG-sensitive preganglionic cardiac vagal outflow through opioid and GABA neurotransmitter systems.  相似文献

Aspects of cardiovascular reflexes in pathologic states   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
Cardiovascular reflexes that are mediated by receptors in the heart and blood vessels control a variety of important hemodynamic and humoral functions. The action of these receptors can be shown to be abnormal in several pathologic states. Left atrial receptors exhibit a depressed discharge sensitivity in dogs with chronic congestive heart failure caused by an aortocaval fistula. The reflex effects of atrial receptor stimulation are also depressed in heart failure. Left ventricular receptor stimulation has been implicated in the abnormal vascular responses to exercise in patients with aortic stenosis. The arterial baroreflex control of heart rate is abnormal in animals and humans with various forms of hypertension. Arterial baroreceptors from hypertensive animals show a resetting of their pressure-discharge curve to higher pressures. The arterial baroreflex is also depressed in chronic heart failure. This effect may result from an abnormality of the efferent limb of the reflex arc or from changes in the interaction between baroreceptors and cardiac receptors centrally. A final possibility may be abnormal arterial baroreceptor discharge characteristics in heart failure.  相似文献

Diet-induced obesity (DIO) attenuates the arterial cardiac baroreceptor reflex, but the mechanisms and sites of action are unknown. This study tested the hypothesis that DIO impairs central aortic baroreceptor pathways. Normal chow control (CON) and high-fat-chow obesity-resistant (OR) and obesity-prone (OP) rats were anesthetized (inactin, 120 mg/kg) and underwent sinoaortic denervation. The central end of the aortic depressor nerve (ADN) was electrically stimulated to generate frequency-dependent baroreflex curves (5-100 Hz) during selective activation of myelinated (A-fiber) or combined (A- and C-fiber) ADN baroreceptors. A mild stimulus (1 V) that activates only A-fiber ADN baroreceptors induced robust, frequency-dependent depressor and bradycardic responses in CON and OR rats, but these responses were completely abolished in OP rats. Maximal activation of A fibers (3 V) elicited frequency-dependent reflexes in all groups, but a dramatic deficit was still present in OP rats. Activation of all ADN baroreceptors (20 V) evoked even larger reflex responses. Depressor responses were nearly identical among groups, but OP rats still exhibited attenuated bradycardia. In separate groups of rats, the reduced heart rate (HR) response to maximal activation of ADN A fibers (3 V) persisted in OP rats following pharmacological blockade of β(1)-adrenergic or muscarinic receptors, suggesting deficits in both parasympathetic nervous system (PNS) and sympathetic nervous system (SNS) reflex pathways. However, the bradycardic responses to direct efferent vagal stimulation were similar among groups. Taken together, our data suggest that DIO severely impairs the central processing of myelinated aortic baroreceptor control of HR, including both PNS and SNS components.  相似文献

We demonstrated previously that atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) enhances reflex bradycardia to intravenous serotonin [5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT)] (von Bezold-Jarisch reflex) in rats. To determine whether 1) ANP affects this cardiopulmonary vagal reflex in another species and 2) B-type (BNP) and C-type (CNP) natriuretic peptides share with ANP the ability to modulate this reflex, we used intravenous phenylbiguanide (PBG), a 5-HT(3) agonist, as the stimulus to evoke a von Bezold-Jarisch reflex (dose-related, reproducible bradycardia) in conscious adult sheep (n = 5). Three doses of PBG (13 +/- 3, 20 +/- 3, and 31 +/- 4 microg/kg) injected into the jugular vein caused reflex cardiac slowing of -7 +/- 1, -15 +/- 2, and -36 +/- 3 beats/min, respectively, under control conditions. These doses of PBG were repeated during infusions of ANP, BNP, or CNP (10 pmol. kg(-1). min(-1) iv), or vehicle (normal saline). Each of the natriuretic peptides significantly (P < 0.05) enhanced the sensitivity of bradycardic responses to PBG by 94 +/- 8% (ANP), 142 +/- 55% (BNP), and 61 +/- 16% (CNP). Thus not only did ANP sensitize cardiopulmonary chemoreceptor activation in a species with resting heart rate close to that in humans, but BNP and CNP also enhanced von Bezold-Jarisch reflex activity in conscious sheep.  相似文献

The central nervous system effects of bombesin on cardiovascular function were examined in conscious, freely-moving rats. Intracerebroventricular administration of bombesin elevated mean arterial pressure, reduced heart rate and inhibited cold-induced tachycardia. Adrenalectomy prevented bombesin-induced elevations of mean arterial pressure. In contrast, bombesin-induced bradycardia was neither adrenal-dependent nor a baroreceptor-mediated reflex response to increased arterial pressure. Systemic atropine methyl nitrate treatment attenuated bombesin-induced bradycardia, suggesting that bombesin acts within the central nervous system to stimulate cardiac vagal activity.  相似文献

We investigated the mechanisms of esophageal distension-induced reflexes in decerebrate cats. Slow air esophageal distension activated esophago-upper esophageal sphincter (UES) contractile reflex (EUCR) and secondary peristalsis (2P). Rapid air distension activated esophago-UES relaxation reflex (EURR), esophago-glottal closure reflex (EGCR), esophago-hyoid distraction reflex (EHDR), and esophago-esophagus contraction reflex (EECR). Longitudinal esophageal stretch did not activate these reflexes. Magnitude and timing of EUCR were related to 2P but not injected air volume. Cervical esophagus transection did not affect the threshold of any reflex. Bolus diversion prevented swallow-related esophageal peristalsis. Lidocaine or capsaicin esophageal perfusion, esophageal mucosal layer removal, or intravenous baclofen blocked or inhibited EURR, EGCR, EHDR, and EECR but not EUCR or 2P. Thoracic vagotomy blocked all reflexes. These six reflexes can be activated by esophageal distension, and they occur in two sets depending on inflation rate rather than volume. EUCR was independent of 2P, but 2P activated EUCR; therefore, EUCR may help prevent reflux during peristalsis. All esophageal peristalsis may be secondary to esophageal stimulation in the cat. EURR, EHDR, EGCR, and EECR may contribute to belching and are probably mediated by capsaicin-sensitive, rapidly adapting mucosal mechanoreceptors. GABA-B receptors also inhibit these reflexes. EUCR and 2P are probably mediated by slowly adapting muscular mechanoreceptors. All six reflexes are mediated by vagal afferent fibers.  相似文献

Both enhanced sympathetic drive and altered autonomic control are involved in the pathogenesis of heart failure. The goal of the present study was to determine the extent to which chronically enhanced sympathetic drive, in the absence of heart failure, alters reflex autonomic control in conscious, transgenic (TG) rabbits with overexpressed cardiac Gsalpha. Nine TG rabbits and seven wild-type (WT) littermates were instrumented with a left ventricular (LV) pressure micromanometer and arterial catheters and studied in the conscious state. Compared with WT rabbits, LV function was enhanced in TG rabbits, as reflected by increased levels of LV dP/dt (5,600 +/- 413 vs. 3,933 +/- 161 mmHg/s). Baseline heart rate was also higher (P < 0.05) in conscious TG (247 +/- 10 beats/min) than in WT (207 +/- 10 beats/min) rabbits and was higher in TG after muscarinic blockade (281 +/- 9 vs. 259 +/- 8 beats/min) or combined beta-adrenergic receptor and muscarinic blockade (251 +/- 6 vs. 225 +/- 9 beats/min). Bradycardia was blunted (P < 0.05), whether induced by intravenous phenylephrine (arterial baroreflex), by cigarette smoke inhalation (nasopharyngeal reflex), or by veratrine administration (Bezold-Jarisch reflex). With veratrine administration, the bradycardia was enhanced in TG for any given decrease in arterial pressure. Thus the chronically enhanced sympathetic drive in TG rabbits with overexpressed cardiac Gsalpha resulted in enhanced LV function and heart rate and impaired reflex autonomic control. The impaired reflex control was generalized, not only affecting the high-pressure arterial baroreflex but also the low-pressure Bezold-Jarisch reflex and the nasopharyngeal reflex.  相似文献

Animals decerebrated at the precollicular-premammillary body level exhibit spontaneous locomotion without any artificial stimulation. Our laboratory reported that the cardiovascular and autonomic responses at the onset of spontaneous locomotor events are evoked by central command, generated from the caudal diencephalon and the brain stem (Matsukawa K, Murata J, and Wada T. Am J Physiol Heart Circ Physiol 275: H1115-H1121, 1998). In this study, we examined whether central command and/or a reflex resulting from muscle afferents modulates arterial baroreflex function using a decerebrate cat model. The baroreflex was evoked by stimulating the aortic depressor nerve (ADN) at the onset of spontaneous muscle contraction (to test the possible influence of central command) and during electrically evoked contraction or passive stretch (to test the possible influence of the muscle reflex). When the ADN was stimulated at rest, heart rate and arterial blood pressure decreased by 40 +/- 2 beats/min and 11 +/- 1 mmHg, respectively. The baroreflex bradycardia was attenuated to 55 +/- 4% at the onset of spontaneous contraction. The attenuating effect on the baroreflex bradycardia was not observed at the onset and middle of electrically evoked contraction or passive stretch. The depressor response to ADN stimulation was identical among resting and any muscle interventions. The inhibition of the baroreflex bradycardia during spontaneous contraction was seen after beta-adrenergic blockade but abolished by muscarinic blockade, suggesting that the bradycardia is mainly evoked through cardiac vagal outflow. We conclude that central command, produced within the caudal diencephalon and the brain stem, selectively inhibits the cardiac component, but not the vasomotor component, of the aortic baroreflex at the onset of spontaneous exercise.  相似文献

In acute experiments on anesthetized cats, afferent spike activity from the parasympathetic (vagal) and sympathetic cardiac nerves, ECG, and cardiodynamic indices were recorded. The effects of indomethacin-induced blockade of cyclo-oxygenase pathway in metabolism of arachidonic acid on the development of cardiogenic reflex responses after intracoronary injections of veratrine, bradykinin, or prostacyclin were tested. It was found that after indomethacin injection depressor cardiogenic vagal reflexes, evoked by veratrine or bradykinin administrations, became significantly suppressed or practically disappeared. This was accompanied by a drop in the frequency of afferent vagal activity in the cardiac nerves. This effect could be observed throughout the entire period of influence of indomethacin (about 2 h after its injection). Veratrine or bradykinin, being injected simultaneously with prostacyclin, provided faster partial recovery of depressor responses (at 1 h) and promoted some activation of vagal cardiac nerves, despite the effect of indomethacin. Injection of indomethacin did not change the pattern of sympathetic afferent activity. It is suggested that the main derivative of cyclo-oxygenase pathway of arachidonic acid metabolism, prostacyclin, is able to modulate vagal nervous activity at the level of afferent structures in the heart. Prostacyclin may appear a humoral component of cardiogenic depressor reflexes of a vagal nature.Neirofiziologiya/Neurophysiology, Vol. 28, No. 1, pp. 53–61, January–February, 1996.  相似文献

Schertel et al. (J. Appl. Physiol. 61: 1237-1240, 1984) reported that pulmonary C fibers initiate the prompt apnea followed by rapid shallow breathing evoked by pulmonary arterial injections of capsaicin. However, doubt has remained as to whether these changes in breathing pattern are induced exclusively by direct stimulation of pulmonary C fibers or whether secondary stimulation of slowly adapting pulmonary stretch receptors by capsaicin-induced reflex bronchoconstriction also contributes to the response. To determine the contribution of this secondary mechanism to changes in breathing pattern, we evoked the pulmonary chemoreflex in spontaneously breathing dogs before and after blockade of muscarinic receptors with atropine. Right atrial injections of capsaicin before the administration of atropine induced a classical pulmonary chemoreflex, i.e., apnea, hypotension, and bradycardia followed by rapid shallow breathing and bronchoconstriction. After atropine, all components of the pulmonary chemoreflex induced by right atrial injections of capsaicin remained intact except bronchoconstriction. However, the absolute magnitude of the change in each component of the reflex except apnea was significantly attenuated. We conclude that the classic pulmonary chemoreflex is a complex phenomenon initiated primarily by stimulation of pulmonary C fibers but significantly influenced by secondary stimulation of slowly adapting pulmonary stretch receptors.  相似文献

Using decerebrate frogs (Rana catesbeiana), we investigated the role of vagal and laryngeal sensory feedback in controlling motor activation of the larynx. Vagal and laryngeal nerve afferents were activated by electrical stimulation of the intact vagal and laryngeal nerves. Pulmonary afferents were activated by lung inflation. Reflex responses were recorded by measuring efferent activity in the laryngeal branch of the vagus (Xℓ) and changes in glottal aperture. Two glottic closure reflexes were identified, one evoked by lung inflation or electrical stimulation of the main branch of the vagus (Xm), and the other by electrical stimulation of Xℓ. Lung inflation evoked a decrementing burst of Xℓ efferent activity and electrical stimulation of Xm resulted in a brief burst of Xℓ action potentials. Electrical stimulation of Xℓ evoked a triphasic mechanical response, an abrupt glottal constriction followed by glottal dilatation followed by a long-lasting glottal constriction. The first phase was inferred to be a direct (nonreflex) response to the stimulus, whereas the second and third represent reflex responses to the activation of laryngeal afferents. Intracellular recordings of membrane potential of vagal motoneurons of lung and nonlung types revealed EPSPs in both types of neurons evoked by stimulation of Xm or Xℓ, indicating activation of glottal dilator and constrictor motoneurons. In summary, we have identified two novel reflexes producing glottic closure, one stimulated by activation of pulmonary receptors and the other by laryngeal receptors. The former may be part of an inspiratory terminating reflex and the latter may represent an airway protective reflex. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Neurobiol 33: 213–222, 1997  相似文献

We investigated the afferent vagal pathways mediating respiratory reflexes evoked by reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the lungs of anesthetized rats. Spontaneous inhalation of 0.2% aerosolized H(2)O(2) acutely evoked initial bradypnea followed by delayed tachypnea, which was frequently mixed with delayed augmented inspiration. The initial response was abolished after perivagal capsaicin treatment (PCT), but was prolonged during vagal cooling (VC) to 7 degrees C; PCT and VC are known to differentially block the conduction of unmyelinated C and myelinated fibers, respectively. The delayed responses were eliminated during VC but emerged earlier after PCT. Vagotomy, catalase (an antioxidant for H(2)O(2)), dimethylthiourea (an antioxidant for. OH), or deferoxamine (an antioxidant for. OH) largely or totally suppressed these reflexive responses, whereas sham nerve treatment, heat-inactivated catalase, saline vehicle, or iron-saturated deferoxamine failed to do so. These results suggest that 1) the H(2)O(2)-evoked initial and delayed airway reflexes are antagonistic and may result from stimulation of lung C fibers and rapidly adapting receptors, respectively, and 2) the reflex effects of H(2)O(2) are, in part, due to the action of. OH on these afferents.  相似文献

The present study was undertaken to determine the afferent and efferent pathways involved in the phenyldiguanide (PDG)-induced reflex response in rats. Intravenous (iv) injection of PDG (10 microg/kg), produced hypotension, bradycardia and apnea over a period of time. Bilateral vagotomy abolished the PDG-induced reflex changes. Atropine (2 mg/kg; iv) blocked only the bradycardiac response produced by PDG, while prazosin (0.5 mg/kg; iv) blocked the hypotensive response, and bilateral vagotomy in these animals abolished the apneic response. In separate series of experiments, intrapericardial injection of lignocaine abolished the hypotensive and bradycardiac responses evoked by PDG in artificially ventilated rats. The results reveal that the PDG-induced reflex is mediated through vagal afferents originating from the heart and efferents involve three different pathways. The bradycardiac response was through the muscarinic receptors, the hypotension is mediated through alpha1 adrenoceptors and the apnea presumably through the spinal motoneurones supplying the respiratory muscles.  相似文献

We reported previously that the thromboxane A(2) (TxA(2)) mimetic U-46619 stimulates cardiac vagal afferent nerves, eliciting a reflex decrease in heart rate (HR) and arterial blood pressure (ABP). The present experiments were designed to test the hypothesis that TxA(2) evokes these changes via the release of serotonin [5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT)] and activation of the 5-HT(3) receptor. Injections of the 5-HT(3) antagonist tropisetron (1 mg of 3-tropanyl-indole-3-carboxylate or ICS-205-930) attenuated the decreases in HR and ABP induced by left atrial injections of U-46619 (20 microg). Tropisetron administration also eliminated the U-46619-induced increase in impulse frequency in a majority of cardiac, vagal afferent units tested. Measurement of serum 5-HT levels revealed an elevation in serum 5-HT levels after U-46619 injection in those rabbits that displayed a significant HR change following injection of U-46619. These results indicate that although other factors may also contribute to these reflex responses, the release of 5-HT and stimulation of the 5-HT(3) receptor plays a significant role in coronary reflexes induced by TxA(2).  相似文献

Although mesencephalic locomotor region (MLR) stimulation and the exercise pressor reflex have been shown to increase whole nerve renal sympathetic activity, it is not known whether these mechanisms converge onto the same population of renal sympathetic postganglionic efferents. In decerebrate cats, we examined the responses of single renal sympathetic postganglionic efferents to stimulation of the MLR and the exercise pressor reflex (i.e., static contraction of the triceps surae muscles). We found that, in most instances (24 of 28 fibers), either MLR stimulation or the muscle reflex, but not both, increased the discharge of renal postganglionic sympathetic efferents. In addition, we found that renal sympathetic efferents that responded to static contraction while the muscles were freely perfused responded more vigorously to static contraction during circulatory arrest. Moreover, stretch of the calcaneal (Achilles) tendon stimulated the same renal sympathetic efferents as did static contraction. These findings suggest that MLR stimulation and the exercise pressor reflex do not converge onto the same renal sympathetic postganglionic efferents.  相似文献

Vagal efferents, consisting of distinct lower motor and preganglionic parasympathetic fibers, constitute the motor limb of vagally mediated reflexes. Arising from the nucleus ambiguus, vagal lower motor neurons (LMN) mediate reflexes involving striated muscles of the orad gut. LMNs provide cholinergic innervation to motor end plates that are inhibited by myenteric nitrergic neurons. Preganglionic neurons from the dorsal motor nucleus implement parasympathetic motor and secretory functions. Cholinergic preganglionic neurons form parallel inhibitory and excitatory vagal pathways to smooth muscle viscera and stimulate postganglionic neurons via nicotinic and muscarinic receptors. In turn, the postganglionic inhibitory neurons release ATP, VIP, and NO, whereas the excitatory neurons release ACh and substance P. Vagal motor effects are dependent on the viscera's intrinsic motor activity and the interaction between the inhibitory and excitatory vagal influences. These interactions help to explain the physiology of esophageal peristalsis, gastric motility, lower esophageal sphincter, and pyloric sphincter. Vagal secretory pathways are predominantly excitatory and involve ACh and VIP as the postganglionic excitatory neurotransmitters. Vagal effects on secretory functions are exerted either directly or via release of local mediators or circulating hormones.  相似文献
