1. The circulatory effects of artificial hyperventilation with air and low oxygen mixtures were studied in rabbits anaesthetized with chloralose-urethane and given decamethonium iodide. The role of vagal afferents in the response to hypoxia was also assessed in spontaneously breathing unanaesthetized and anaesthetized animals.2. In the anaesthetized rabbit artificial hyperventilation inhibited all the changes in autonomic activity to the heart and peripheral circulation resulting from stimulation of the arterial chemoreceptors, and also reduced vagal efferent tone. In animals with section of the carotid sinus and aortic nerves the changes in autonomic activity observed during hypoxia and hyperventilation were much smaller than in normal animals and affected only cardiac autonomic activity.3. The effects of hyperventilation during hypoxia were mediated chiefly through vagal afferents rather than through the effects of hypocapnia. In the absence of changes in autonomic activity (e.g. during artificial hyperventilation with air) the circulatory effects were small and less clearly related to afferent vagal activity.4. In the spontaneously breathing anaesthetized and unanaesthetized rabbit vagal afferent activity resulting from the respiratory response to hypoxia inhibits sympatho-adrenal activity in the same way as during hypoxia with artificial hyperventilation.5. The importance of the vagal afferent input in the rabbit is discussed in relation to the qualitative differences in circulatory response with increasing severity of hypoxia, and in relation to the effects of anaesthesia.
