Highlights PVN in sympathetic control models; leaves open targeted interventions in hypertension or HF.
The paraventricular nucleus plays a crucial role in regulating the basal level, bursting pattern, and coordination of efferent sympathetic nerve outflow.
Kenney et al. (2002) conducted a review in Sympathetic nerve outflow regulation. Paraventricular nucleus (PVN) modulation was evaluated on Efferent sympathetic nerve activity. The paraventricular nucleus is an important component of the central neurocircuitry regulating the basal level of activity and bursting pattern of efferent sympathetic nerve outflow.
