LEPTIN IMPAIRS CARDIOVAGAL BAROREFLEX FUNCTION AT THE LEVEL OF THE SOLITARY TRACT NUCLEUS

Circulating leptin is elevated in some forms of obesity-related hypertension, associated with impaired baroreflex function. Leptin receptors are present on vagal afferent fibers and neurons within the solitary tract nucleus, providing an anatomical distribution consistent with baroreflex modulation....
