Does sympathetic splanchnic nerve stimulation at various frequencies increase power in mesenteric resistance and blood pressure in conscious rats?
The peripheral sympathetic nervous system in rats can transmit signals at frequencies higher than traditionally assigned to sympathetic vasomotor activity, overlapping with the respiration-related high-frequency range.
Stauss et al. (1996) studied this question.
