  • Role of the medulla oblongata in normal and high arterial blood pressure regulation: the contribution of Escola Paulista de Medicina - UNIFESP SERGIO L. CRAVO RUY R. CAMPOS EDUARDO COLOMBARI MÔNICA A. SATO CÁSSIA M. BERGAMASCHI GUSTAVO R. PEDRINO MARCOS L. FERREIRA-NETO OSWALDO U. LOPES Multidisciplinaria (Ciencias Naturales y Exactas) Hypertension vasomotor nuclei arterial pressure baroreceptor reflexes sympathetic nerve activity Several forms of experimental evidence gathered in the last 37 years have unequivocally established that the medulla oblongata harbors the main neural circuits responsible for generating the vasomotor tone and regulating arterial blood pressure. Our current understanding of this circuitry derives mainly from the studies of Pedro Guertzenstein, a former student who became Professor of Physiology at UNIFESP later, and his colleagues. In this review, we have summarized the main findings as well as our collaboration to a further understanding of the ventrolateral medulla and the control of arterial blood pressure under normal and pathological conditions. 2009 artículo científico 0001-3765 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=32713479021 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=327 Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências application/pdf Academia Brasileira de Ciências Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências (Brasil) Num.3 Vol.81
