Lingual Muscle Activity Across Sleep–Wake States in Rats with Surgically Altered Upper Airway
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) patients have increased upper airway muscle activity, including such lingual muscles as the genioglossus (GG), geniohyoid (GH), and hyoglossus (HG). This adaptation partially protects their upper airway against obstructions. Rodents are used to study the central neural control of sleep and breathing but they do not naturally exhibit OSA. We investigated whether, in...
متن کاملUpper airway muscle activity and upper airway resistance in young adults during sleep.
To determine the relationship between upper airway muscle activity and upper airway resistance in nonsnoring and snoring young adults, 17 subjects were studied during sleep. Genioglossus and alae nasi electromyogram activity were recorded. Inspiratory and expiratory supraglottic resistance (Rinsp and Rexp, respectively) were measured at peak flow, and the coefficients of resistance (Kinsp and K...
متن کاملBreathing route dependence of upper airway muscle activity during hyperpnea.
Exercise (Ex) and hypercapnia (HC) both lead to increases in ventilation and upper airway muscle (UAM) activity. To determine whether different breathing routes (nasal vs. oral) or stimuli produced differential UAM activation, electromyographic (EMG) activity of the alae nasi (AN) and genioglossus (GG) were measured in seven normal subjects seated on a bicycle ergometer. Subjects performed pair...
متن کاملAltered Muscle Metabolism in Rats
Burn injury is associated with an elevation in total body oxygen consumption, increased hepatic alanine uptake and conversion to glucose. and a negative nitrogen balance. The primary source of the alanine used for gluconeogenesis by the liver and of the nitrogen lost as urea is believed to be from skeletal muscle. Selected muscle regulatory enzymes and pyruvate and oleate oxidation rates were a...
متن کاملEffects of upper airway carbon dioxide on upper airway resistance and muscle activity in young guinea-pigs.
The upper airway (UA) of adult animals is known to contain carbon dioxide-sensitive receptors and UA CO2 reflexly affects breathing, UA dilator muscle activity and UA resistance. These effects may function in the control of UA patency. There is evidence that some UA reflexes are stronger in young than in adult animals, but it is not known whether CO2-sensitive receptors are present in the UA of...
