Abstract | Hypertension, a major public health issue, is estimated to contribute to 10% of all deaths worldwide. Further, the salt sensitivity of blood pressure is a critical risk factor for the development of hypertension. The hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN) coordinates neuro-hormonal responses to alterations in plasma sodium and osmolality and multiple G Protein-Coupled Receptors (GPCRs) are involved in fluid and electrolyte homeostasis. In acute animal studies, our laboratory has shown that central Gαi/o subunit protein signal transduction mediates hypotensive and bradycardic responses and that Gz/q, proteins mediate the release of arginine vasopressin (AVP) and subsequent aquaretic responses to acute pharmacological stimuli. Extending these studies, our laboratory has shown that central Gαi |
