Abstract
The role of the vagus nerve on the renal circulation was investigated on mongrel dogs using the cross circulation method. The stimulation of the efferent cervical vagus nerve caused a decrease in renal blood flow in a half of the experiments. The denervation of the barore-ceptors abolished the change in renal blood flow on stimulation of the efferent cervical vagus nerve. The stimulation of the efferent thoracic vagus nerve did not affect the renal blood flow. The efferent renal vasomotor fibers were not demonstrated in the vagus nerve.
