2-Amino-5-phosphonovalerate (AP5; 153 pmol) injected into the rostral ventrolateral medulla (RVLM) inhibited pressor responses induced by carotid chemoreceptor stimulation. AP5 also inhibited pressor responses to aspartate (0.75 nmol) but not to glutamate (0.53 nmol) similarly injected. High K+(50 mM) released endogenous aspartate and glutamate in a Ca2+-dependent manner from the RVLM. Chemoreceptor stimulation caused a release of aspartate but not of glutamate in the RVLM, and sinus nerve denervation abolished the release of aspartate. Increases in blood pressure induced by intravenous phenylephrine did not release aspartate. These results support the hypothesis that endogenous aspartate in the rat RVLM is involved in the mediation of chemoreceptor reflexes. |
