A Novel Organ-Specific Approach to Selectively Target Sensory Afferents Innervating the Aortic Arch

A Novel Organ-Specific Approach to Selectively Target Sensory Afferents Innervating the Aortic Arch

The brain maintains cardiovascular homeostasis, in part, via the arterial baroreflex which senses changes in blood pressure (BP) at the level of the aortic arch. Sensory afferents innervating the aortic arch employ baroreceptors to convert stretch exerted on the arterial wall into action potentials...
