| Abstract | 1. The participation of the paratrigeminal nucleus (Pa5) in the pressor response produced by bradykinin in the dorsolateral medulla of rats was investigated. The microinjection of 6 pmol of bradykinin directly over the paratrigeminal nucleus of unanaesthetized rats produced a significant increase in arterial pressure and a moderate increase in heart rate. 2. Bradykinin microinjections in different sites surrounding the Pa5 compromising the external cuneate nucleus, the trigeminal nucleus, the lateral and ventral spinal trigeminal tract and the dorsal trigeminal tract rostral and caudal to the Pa5 did not elicit significant pressor responses. In contrast, microinjections in the paratrigeminal nucleus produced pressor effects. Injections in the dorsolateral medulla directly over the paratrigeminal nucleus produced larger responses than when injections were made in the nucleus. Saline injections in the different nuclei did not produce pressor effects. 3. Neurochemical lesioning of the Pa5, with microinjections of ibotenic acid in the Pa5, abolished the pressor response to bradykinin injected over the lesioned nucleus. The effect was present, however, when bradykinin was injected on the contralateral side to the lesion, over the intact nucleus of the same animal. Pretreatment with capsaicin (injected in the lateral cerebral ventricle), which causes selective degeneration of afferent sensory fibres, did not alter the pressor effect of bradykinin injected over the paratrigeminal nucleus. 4. Dose-related responses were produced by different concentrations of bradykinin (0.6-1.8 pmol) microinjected over the nucleus. The bradykinin receptor antagonist HOE 140, injected over the paratrigeminal nucleus 30 min earlier, abolished the pressor response caused by bradykinin. 5. Low doses of bradykinin injected in or directly over the paratrigeminal nucleus increased arterial pressure and caused a small increase in heart rate by stimulating kinin receptors of the paratrigeminal nucleus in the dorsolateral medulla of awake and unrestrained rats. The pattern of the response was consistent with that of sympathetic stimulation. The paratrigeminal nucleus, which receives primary afferents and projects to the nucleus tractus solitarii and the rostral ventral lateral medulla, may be positioned as relay nucleus possibly connecting sensory input to structures that regulate blood pressure. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
