40 Baroreflex gain decreases with insulin sensitivity.

41 Obesity decreases brain insulin
Baskin et al. Genetically obese Zucker rats have abnormally low brain insulin content. Life Sci 36: , 1985. Gerozissis et al. A potential role of central insulin in learning and memory related to feeding. Cell Mol Neurobiol 21: , 2001. Kaiyala et al. Obesity induced by a high fat diet is associated with reduced brain insulin transport in dogs. Diabetes 49: , 2000. Shows changes in insulin levels in CSF and plasma. Plasma, no change. CSF decreased by >50% at end at gestation, but not at midgestation.

43 Pregnancy decreases baroreflex gain in rats
Non-pregnant (n=10) Pregnant (n=7) Shows that in rats, as in rabbits, pregnancy decreases baroreflex gain. The question is whether icv insulin would normalize the baroreflex, look like non-pregnant. Azar and Brooks. Hypertension (2011).

53 Insulin: brain site of action
ArcN PVN RVLM X X PVN inhibition reverses insulin-mediated increases in LSNA and LSNA gain. PVN microinjection of insulin has no effect. ArcN inhibition reverses insulin-mediated increases in LSNA and LSNA gain.

58 a master regulator of baroreflex function?
Insulin: a master regulator of baroreflex function? Decreases in baroreflex gain and insulin sensitivity are correlated during pregnancy and obesity. Reversal of insulin resistance (rosiglitazone) normalizes baroreflex gain. Brain insulin levels are reduced during pregnancy and obesity. ICV insulin infusion in conscious pregnant and obese rats normalizes HR gain.
