摘要
In our previous research, we had demonstrated the crucial role of neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) in potentiation of the olfactory bulb blood flow response to olfactory stimulation in adult rats. The present study examined the effects of nAChR activation on the olfactory bulb blood flow response in rats aged 24–27 months. We found that, under urethane anesthesia, unilateral olfactory nerve stimulation (300 μA, 20 Hz, 5 s) increased blood flow within the ipsilateral olfactory bulb, without changes in the systemic arterial pressure. The increase in blood flow was dependent upon the current and frequency of the stimulus. Intravenous administration of nicotine (30 μg/kg) had little effect on the olfactory bulb blood flow response to nerve stimulation at either 2 Hz or 20 Hz. These results suggest a reduction in nAChR-mediated potentiation of the olfactory bulb blood flow response in aged rats.
