SOD1 Overexpression Preserves Baroreflex Control of Heart Rate with an Increase of Aortic Depressor Nerve Function

Figure 5

Baroreceptor afferent function: baroreceptor function curves for C57 () and SOD1 () groups were reconstructed using the averaged parameters of sigmoid logistic function curves (see Table 2). The baroreceptor discharge function curve for SOD1 mice is significantly higher for SOD mice compared to C57 () and the gain of the baroreceptor afferent function curve was significantly higher for the SOD1 mice than for the C57 mice ().
