Recently, Wittenberg et al confirmed that the intracranial #baroreceptor mechanism triggers proportional sympathetic responses & contributes to BP regulation in rats.

New study in @JPhysiol shows how the brain regulates blood pressure! Intracranial baroreceptors respond to pressure changes, triggering BP increases to maintain #cerebral flow.
Using #OxyLite, the team showed pO2 dips were minimal, ruling out hypoxia. physoc.onlinelibrary.wiley.c…

Additional data on the intracranial baroreflex !
Nice work in @JPhysiol ! @FionaMcbryde
