Changes in GABAergic inputs in the paraventricular nucleus maintain sympathetic vasomotor tone in chronic heart failure
(Elsevier B.V., 2012-11-02)The paraventricular nucleus (PVN) of the hypothalamus is an important region of the brain involved in the regulation of sympathetic vasomotor tone. Accumulating evidence supports the idea that a change in hypothalamic ...
