We determined whether angiotensin II (ANG II) modulates the arterial baroreflex control of lumbar sympathetic nerve activity (LSNA) in chloralose-anesthetized rabbits. Intravenous infusion (iv) of ANG II caused significantly less reflex bradycardia and less inhibition of LSNA than iv phenylephrine (PE) for equivalent increments in arterial pressure. During a background iv infusion of ANG II, which caused a small sustained increase in arterial pressure, the reflex inhibition of heart rate (HR) and LSNA in response to further increases in pressure with graded doses of PE was attenuated, but the reflex increase in HR and LSNA in response to hypotension with graded doses of nitroprusside was unchanged. This modulation of the baroreflex by ANG II is specific since a similar background infusion of PE did not alter baroreflex responses to further increases or to decreases in arterial pressure. The frequency of aortic baroreceptors was comparable for equivalent increases in pressure caused by iv ANG II or PE. When ANG II was confined to the isolated carotid sinuses, the reflex inhibition of HR and LSNA during distension of carotid sinuses was unchanged. An excitatory effect of ANG II on the efferent limb of the baroreflex that would oppose the reflex bradycardia or inhibition of LSNA is unlikely because when the pressor effect of ANG II was prevented by nitroprusside, there were no changes in HR and LSNA. We conclude that through an effect on the central nervous system iv ANG II has a selective effect on the arterial baroreflex; it impairs reflex decreases in HR and LSNA during hypertension but not reflex increases in HR and LSNA during hypotension.
