Microinjection of angiotensin II into the nucleus tractus solitarii attenuates the baroreceptor reflex-mediated bradycardia by inhibiting both vagal and cardiac sympathetic components. However, it is not known whether the baroreflex modulation of other sympathetic outputs (i.e., noncardiac) also are inhibited

Lesion or pharmacological manipulation of the dorsolateral pons can transform the breathing pattern to apneusis (pathological prolonged inspiration). Apneusis reflects a disturbed inspiratory off-switch mechanism (IOS) leading to a delayed phase transition from inspiration to expiration. Under intact conditions the
