We examined the role of carotid baroreceptors in the short-term modulation of sympathetic outflow to the muscle vascular bed and parasympathetic outflow to the heart in 10 healthy adults. Afferent carotid baroreceptor activity was modified with 30-mmHg neck suction or pressure applied during held expiration, and efferent sympathetic activity was measured with microelectrodes inserted percutaneously into peroneal nerve muscle fascicles. Sympathetic responses were conditioned importantly by directional changes of carotid transmural pressure: increased pressure (onset of neck suction or offset of neck pressure) inhibited (totally) sympathetic activity, and reduced pressure (offset of neck suction or onset of neck pressure) augmented sympathetic activity. Responses occurred after a latency of about 2 s and did not persist as long as changes of neck-chamber pressure. Cardiac intervals were prolonged by increased carotid transmural pressures and shortened by decreased carotid transmural pressures, but, in contrast to sympathetic responses, cardiac responses adapted only slightly during neck-chamber pressure changes. Our results suggest that in the human a common baroreceptor input is processed differently in central vagal and sympathetic networks. Muscle sympathetic responses to changing levels of afferent baroreceptor traffic are profound but transitory. They appear to be conditioned more by changes of arterial pressure than by its absolute levels.
