Abstract:
:Recent studies in this laboratory have demonstrated the ability of acetylcholine receptor agonists to produce systemic arterial pressor responses through stimulation of spinal muscarinic receptors. In urethane-anesthetized rats a new surgical procedure was employed to permit microinjection of drugs into the cerebrospinal fluid surrounding the medulla without significant redistribution to spinal sites and vice versa. Pretreatment with intracisternal (medullary level) injection of 10 micrograms of atropine significantly inhibited the expression of the pressor response produced by intrathecal injection of 5 micrograms of carbachol. This inhibition was due at least partly to the interruption of a medullary component of a spinobulbar pathway involving medullary muscarinic receptors. It was not due to redistribution of atropine from medullary to spinal sites since significant levels of atropine were not detected in the spinal cord after intracisternal injection of the drug. The remainder of the pressor response to intrathecal carbachol after medullary muscarinic receptor blockade was most likely due to interactions within the spinal cord itself.
