Because of this, stretch receptors in those muscles contract to correct posture.

Pulmonary stretch receptors are found in the lungs and control the respiratory rate.

Irritant and stretch receptors in the lungs can directly cause exhalation.

Increased firing from the stretch receptors also increases production of pulmonary surfactant.

Stretch receptors in the stomach send signals to the brain that the stomach is filled.

Blood pressure, heart rate, and cardiac output are measured by stretch receptors found in the carotid arteries.

The apneustic center is inhibited by pulmonary stretch receptors.

Lymph hearts have stretch receptors and smooth muscle tissue embedded in their walls.

Stretch receptors in the organ sense when its limit is reached, triggering a vomit reflex.

In the right atrium, the stretch receptors occur at the junction of the venae cavae.

For postural stability, it has been suggested that stretch receptors may contribute to immediate stabilization in posture.

Stretch receptors have two parts: Spindle cells and Golgi tendons.

It is suggested that the stretch receptors of the bladder and uterus provoked the symptoms which were interpreted as "instability."

Increased blood volume is detected by stretch receptors located in both atria at the venoatrial junctions.

Essentially, muscle spindles are stretch receptors.

Stretch receptors in the gastrointestinal tract sense gas distension that may result in colic pain.

These factors include activation of stretch receptors due to increased ventilation and the release of circulating catecholamines.

Stretch receptors cause postganglionic neurons to release norepinephrine (NE).

They also found that PIR can be elicited in the stretch receptor by hyperpolarizing current pulses.

These involve numerous sensory receptors in internal organs, such as stretch receptors that are neurologically linked to the brain.

Arterial baroreceptors are stretch receptors that are stimulated by distortion of the arterial wall when pressure changes.

Pulmonary stretch receptors present in the smooth muscle of the airways respond to excessive stretching of the lung during large inspirations.

Stretch receptors in the aorta and other vessels send sensory input to this region, relaying information about blood volume and blood pressure.

This results in an increase in the pressure of the right atrium, which stimulates the atrial stretch receptors (low pressure receptor zones).

The solitary tract conveys afferent information from stretch receptors and chemoreceptors in the walls of the cardiovascular, respiratory, and intestinal tracts.
