Developmental Changes in Membrane Properties of Chemoreceptor Afferent Neurons of the Rat Petrosal Ganglia

, 1999
Carotid body chemoreceptors increase their responsiveness to hypoxia in the postnatal period, but the mechanism for this increase is unresolved. The purpose of the present study was to examine developmental changes in cellular characteristics of ...

Cannabinoid exposure during pregnancy: Cardiorespiratory effects and offspring outcomes

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Prenatal exposure to cannabinoids has been investigated across human and animal studies to understand its impact on physiological development. Evidence suggests that early‐life cannabinoid exposure influence multiple developmental processes, extending beyond neurodevelopmental outcomes to potentially affect placental function ...

Elevated carotid body tonic activity contributes to ventilatory acclimatization and de‐acclimatization to high altitude at rest and during exercise

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Participants spent 13 days at high altitude (3800 m), where the reduced inspired oxygen pressure (↓PiO2$ \downarrow {P_{{\mathrm{i}}{{\mathrm{O}}_2}}}$) which elicited ventilatory acclimatization and increased inhibition of ventilation by transient hyperoxia (ΔV̇E$\Delta {\dot V_{\mathrm{E}}}$).

The response of few-fiber carotid chemoreceptor preparations to almitrine in the dog

, 1981
Almitrine, a long-lasting peripheral chemoreceptor stimulant, was given to nine dogs via intracarotid injection. Carotid chemoreceptor activity was recorded from single or few-fiber afferent nerve preparations.

Reduced cardiovascular mortality at moderate altitude: a putative role of physical activity and body mass

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Benefits of performing physical exercise at moderate altitude. At moderate altitude, increased resting metabolic rate and physical exertion promote physical fitness and exercise tolerance, whereas hypoxia suppresses appetite and elicits adaptations that increase tissue O2 delivery while augmenting O2‐independent ATP production ...

Breathing irregularities and postnatal hypoxaemia in an experimental model of essential hypertension

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Neonatal spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs) exhibit inherent respiratory dysfunction in early life, including oscillatory breathing patterns and apnoeic events that cause oxygen desaturation and brain hypoxia, in addition to an impaired hypoxic ventilatory response.

Effects of low glucose on carotid body chemoreceptor cell activity studied in cultures of intact organs and in dissociated cells

, 2015
The participation of the carotid body (CB) in glucose homeostasis and evidence obtained in simplified cultured CB slices or dissociated cells have led to the proposal that CB chemoreceptor cells are glucoreceptors.

Melatonin attenuates rat carotid chemoreceptor response to hypercapnic acidosis

, 2004
Respiratory activity is under circadian modulation and the physiological mechanisms may involve the pineal secretory product, melatonin, and the carotid chemoreceptor.
