Angiotensin (ANG) can produce a biphasic arterial pressure response, i.e., an increase followed by a decrease. Because ANG type 1 (AT1) receptors mediate the pressor response to ANG, we hypothesized that the opposing depressor action is mediated by the ANG type 2 (AT2) receptors. In thiobutabarbital (Inactin)-anesthetized rats bolus injections of angiotensin III (ANG III; 100, 300, and 1,000 ng/kg iv) produced peak increases in MAP at 20 s of 13.4 +/- 1.4, 20.1 +/- 2, and 27.5 +/- 2.8 mmHg and maximum decreases in pressure at 120 s of -6.3 +/- 1.5, -6.8 +/- 2.2, and -11.4 +/- 4.9 mmHg.

Gastric pacing has been investigated as a potential treatment for gastroparesis. New pacing protocols are required to improve symptom and motility outcomes; however, research progress has been constrained by a limited understanding of the effects of electrical stimulation on slow-wave activity.

In tonic REM sleep, PNS activity remains high, but phasic REM sleep is associated with brief alterations of SNS/PNS balance along with irregular and phasic changes in HR. Alcohol elevates SNS activity, producing an overall increased HR during sleep.
