Sympathetic tone

Molecular classification
Other
01

Overview

Sympathetic tone refers to the continuous baseline activity of the sympathetic nervous system, which is responsible for the body's fight-or-flight responses and underlying regulation of many autonomic functions, including vascular tone, heart rate, and metabolism[1][4][7]. It is not a molecule, protein, or drug target; rather, it is a functional state reflecting the collective output of sympathetic neural circuits and their neurotransmitter-mediated actions throughout the body.
