Male Fischer rats were randomly divided into control and recovered (R-PR) groups after weaning. R-PR rats were fed with low protein diet for 35 days and recovered under normal protein diet for 70 days. Control rats received normal protein diet for 105 days. Arterial chemoreflexwas elicited by intravenous injection of KCN. Results showed that pressor response of the chemoreflex was increased in R-PR. Data suggest that protein restriction may alter cardiovascular response to chemical activation of the chemoreflex after recovery.en-USChemoreflexBlood pressureProtein restrictionRecovery from protein restrictionArtigo publicado em periodicoO periódico Autonomic Neuroscience concede permissão para depósito deste artigo no Repositório Institucional da UFOP.
