The effects of bolus intracarotid (IC) infusions of dopamine (DA), norepinephrine (NE), and 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) on activity in single or few-fiber carotid chemoreceptor afferent nerve preparations were studied in pentobarbital anesthetized dogs. The effects of IV infusions of DA were also assessed. IC injections of DA (10 .mu.g) and (5-HT) (1 .mu.g) consistently produced a burst of intense activity followed by a period of inhibition. A similar effect was seen with IC NE (20-40 .mu.g) injections, but the burst of excitation occurred in only 45% of the injections. Inhibition of activity was seen in 88% of the IC NE injections. Low IC doses of all 3 amines produced inhibition of chemoreceptor afferent activity. High doses of DA IV (.apprx. 60 .mu.g/kg) produced excitation followed by depression, while lower doses (.apprx. 21 .mu.g/kg) produced only inhibition. The excitatory effects of all 3 amines were blocked by d-tubocurarine (50-435 .mu.g/kg IV). Inhibitory effects of all 3 amines were blocked by dihydroergotamine (140-270 .mu.g/kg). The inhibitory effect produced by DA was specifically blocked by haloperidol (50-400 .mu.g/kg IV). DA, NE and 5-HT can modulate carotid body activity by increasing or decreasing responses to physiologic stimuli.
