Postdoctoral fellow on cardiovascular physiology at University of Missouri. Former postdoctoral fellow at University of Florida on cardiovascular physiology. PhD at Department of Physiology School of Medicine of Ribeirao Preto FMRP/USP. Master's of science at the multicentric departmen of physiology at Sao Paulo State University. Study cardiovascular effects of barorreflex stimulation during hypertension and sepsis. Noradrenergic activation of parvocellullar neurons of PVN and NTS neurons. Thus, hidroeletrolitic balance and sodium and water intake behavior. (Source: Lattes Curriculum)

Essential hypertension affects about 35% of the population above 40 years of age and is strongly associated with increased risk of serious cardiovascular events. Hypertension affects various organs such as the heart, blood vessels, and kidneys, as well as affects cardiovascular autonomic modulation leading to sympathetic hyperactivity and reduced vagal parasympathetic drive to the heart. …
The lateral parabrachial nucleus (LPBN), a pontine structure is an important area involved in the control of water and sodium intake. Previous studies showed inhibitory serotonergic and cholecystokinergic mechanisms in the LPBN in the control of water and sodium intake. Injections of methysergide, a serotonergic receptor antagonist or proglumide, a cholecystokinin antagonist, into the LPB…
