Effects of Temperature on Steady-State Activity and Dynamic Responses of Carotid Baro- and Chemoreceptors

  • Conference paper
Chemoreception in the Carotid Body

Abstract

It is well known that carotid baroreceptors are highly responsive to the rate of rise and fall in arterial blood pressure. Like other mechanoreceptors, such as muscle spindles (12), crayfish stretch receptors (11), and Pacinian corpuscles (6), they adapt markedly to applied stimuli (2,4,7,8). McCloskey (9), Gray (5), and Black et al. (1) have demonstrated that chemoreceptors of the carotid body also adapt if they are stimulated by hypercapnia.
