Activation of the sympathetic nervous system hastens the rate of progression and severity of chronic heart failure (CHF). Chemically sensitive nerves in the carotid body (CB) that stimulate sympathetic nerve activity become overly active in CHF and contribute to this phenomenon. The stimulus for activation of these CB chemoreceptors is not known. Blood supply to tissues is impaired due to the failing...
An exaggerated exercise pressor reflex (EPR) contributes to exercise intolerance and excessive sympatho‐excitation in the chronic heart failure (CHF) state. However, the components of this reflex that are responsible for the exaggerated EPR in CHF remain unknown. To determine whether muscle afferent function is altered in CHF, we recorded the discharge of group III and IV afferents in response to...
