STEPHENSON, R. B., 0. A. SMITH, AND AM &HER. Baroreceptor regulation of heart rate in baboons during different behavioral states. Am. J. Physiol. 241 (Regulatory Integrative Comp. Physiol. 10): R277-R285, 1981.-Heart rate (HR) responses to sinusoidal changes in blood pressure were studied in baboons during four states: sleep (S), lever pressing (LP) reinforced by food, eating (E), and wheel turning (WT), a mild dvnamic leg exercise reinforced by shock avoidance. Cyclical i& ‘lation at frequencies of 0.032-0.18 Hz of a cuff implanted on the descending aorta caused systolic pressure to vary by HZ mmHg. Reflex sensitivity, expressed as the change in HR per unit change in systolic pressure was greatest during S, least during WT, and intermediate during LP and E. These differences in sensitivity became more pronounced when assessed by using interval between heart beats rather than HR. This discrepancy resulted f&m the unequal control HR in the four behavioral states, and it disappeared when sensitivity was computed Erom fractional rather than absolute changes in rate or interval. Because time lag of reflex responses was significantly less during, S, LP, and E than during WT, dominance of vagal (faster) over sympathetic (slower) effects was considered likely during S, LP, and E but not during WT. Accordingly, vagal contributions to reflex responses (shown by sensitivity measurements after P-adrenergic blockade with propranolol) were largest in S and smallest in WT, whereas sympathetic contributions (apparent after cholinergic blockade with atropine) were small and equal in the four behavioral states. Nonlinearity (saturation) of baroreceptors or the heart could not account for depressed reflex sensitivity during WT, because reflex sensitivity remained low during WT even when blood pressure was lowered by constriction of the vena cava or when HR was lowered by propranolol. We conclude that differences in sensitivity among the behavioral states result from central modulation of the vagal component of the baroreceptor reflex.
