Fastigial nucleus modulates exercise HR and MAP in dogs; hypothesis-generating for cerebellar autonomic control with no clinical translation yet.
Does lesioning the fastigial nucleus alter cardiovascular responses to dynamic exercise in dogs?
The fastigial nucleus acts as a modulator of heart rate and mean arterial blood pressure during dynamic exercise.
Kenneth J. Dormer (1984) studied this question.
