Respiratory rhythm irregularity after carotid body denervation in rats
Respiratory activity is controlled by inputs from the peripheral and central chemoreceptors. Since overactivity of the carotid bodies, the main peripheral chemoreceptors, is linked to the pathophysiology of disparate metabolic and cardiovascular diseases, carotid body denervation (CBD) has been proposed as a potential treatment. However, long-term effects of CBD on the respiratory rhythm and re...
متن کاملMortality after carotid body denervation in rats.
Carotid body denervation (CBD) in neonatal goats and piglets results in minimal irregular breathing and no fatalities. Redundancy and/or plasticity of peripheral chemosensitivity and a relatively mature ventilatory control system at birth may contribute to the paucity of CBD effects in these species. In the present study, we tested the hypothesis that CBD mortality would be greater in neonates ...
متن کاملRespiratory neuroplasticity following carotid body denervation
Historically, the role of the carotid bodies in ventilatory control has been understated, but the current view suggests that the carotid bodies (1) provide a tonic, facilitory input to the respiratory network, (2) serve as the major site of peripheral O2 chemoreception and minor contributor to CO2/H(+) chemoreception, and (3) are required for ventilatory adaptation to high altitude. Each of the...
متن کاملChanges in neurochemicals within the ventrolateral medullary respiratory column in awake goats after carotid body denervation.
A current and major unanswered question is why the highly sensitive central CO2/H(+) chemoreceptors do not prevent hypoventilation-induced hypercapnia following carotid body denervation (CBD). Because perturbations involving the carotid bodies affect central neuromodulator and/or neurotransmitter levels within the respiratory network, we tested the hypothesis that after CBD there is an increase...
متن کاملCarotid body denervation effect on cytochrome oxidase activity in pre-Botzinger complex of developing rats.
Previously, we found that the rat pre-Bötzinger complex (PBC) exhibited reduced cytochrome oxidase (CO) activity on postnatal days (P) 3-4 and especially on P12, with a concomitant decrease in glutamate and N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor subunit 1, and an increase in GABA, GABA(B), glycine receptor, and glutamate subunit 2. We hypothesized that the PBC would be more affected by carotid body dene...
