| dc.abstract.en | The autonomic nervous system regulates internal organs and peripheral circulation, which enables the maintenance of homeostasis in vertebrate species. One of the brain regions involved in autonomic and endocrine homeostasis regulation is the paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus (PVN). The PVN is a unique site at which multiple input signals can be assessed and integrated. The regulation of the autonomic system by the PVN and, especially, the sympathetic flow, depends upon the integration of inhibitory and excitatory neurotransmitter action. The excitatory neurotransmitters such as glutamate and angiotensin II, and inhibitory neurotransmitters such as γ‑aminobutyric acid and nitric oxide, play a key role in the physiological function of the PVN. Moreover, arginine‑vasopressin (AVP) and oxytocin (OXT) are important in the regulation of sympathetic system activity. The PVN is also crucial for maintaining cardiovascular regulation, with its integrity being pivotal for blood pressure regulation. Studies have shown that pre‑autonomic sympathetic PVN neurons increase blood pressure and the dysfunction of these neurons is directly related to elevated sympathetic nervous system activity under hypertension. Etiology of hypertension in patients is not fully known. Thus, understanding the role of PVN in the generation of hypertension may help to treat this cardiovascular disease. This review focuses on the PVN’s inhibitory and excitatory neurotransmitter interactions that regulate sympathetic system activity in physiological conditions and hypertension. | |
