Norepinephrine(NE) release in posterior nucleus(PH) of the hypothalamus was examined before and during acute shaker (oscillation) stress in sinoaortic denervated(SAD) and sham-operated(SO) rats. NE in PH extracellular fluid of freely moving rats was collected by microdialysis and measured by sensitive radioenzymatic assay. Three days after SAD or SO operation, mean arterial pressure(MAP) and heart rate(HR) were significantly higher in SAD rats than SO rats. Baseline levels of NE in PH dialysate were also significantly elevated in SAD rats. Although five minutes of shaker stress elicited pressor and tachycardic responses coupled with increased NE release in PH of both groups, the increases in MAP and dialysate NE were larger in SAD than SO rats. These findings indicate that noradrenergic neurons in the PH respond to stress-induced stimuli and receive tonic input from baroreflex pathways.
