Mechanisms reducing parasympathetic activity in chronic hypoxia

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Parasympathetic activity is reduced in chronic hypoxia, but the underlying mechanism(s) are unclear. Using β‐adrenergic blockade to isolate parasympathetic control of heart rate at sea level and after 9‐12 days at high altitude, we investigated whether (i) chemoreflex activation, (ii) increased pulmonary ventilation and/or (iii ...

The influence of metaboreflex activation on pulmonary pressure with combined chemoreflex activation in acute and chronic hypoxia

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Activation of both the metaboreflex via post‐exercise circulatory occlusion and the chemoreflex via acute and chronic hypoxia increased pulmonary artery systolic pressure. Coactivation of these reflexes further increased pulmonary artery pressure in an additive manner.

Ventilatory and heart rate responses to hypoxia in pre‐ and post‐menopausal ethnically Tibetan women residing at ∼3800 m in Mustang, Nepal

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Tibetan women livingat high altitude exhibit distinct physiological traits that can enhance oxygen transport in chronic hypoxia. Menopausal status influences cardiopulmonary responses to hypoxia in women living at low altitudes.

The role of group III/IV afferent feedback in the ventilatory, pressor and metabolic responses to exercise in normoxia and hypoxia

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Participants completed cycling exercise with (placebo) and without (25 µg intrathecal fentanyl) intact group III/IV muscle afferent feedback in three settings: normoxia, acute hypoxia and chronic hypoxia after 7–9 days of acclimatisation (∼3800 m). Blocking afferent feedback suppressed exercise hyperpnoea across all environments,

Electrophysiological properties of the dorsal motor nucleus of the vagus motoneurones controlling airway mucus secretion in rats

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Acidosis depolarises parasympathetic respiratory motoneurones in the dorsal motor nucleus of the vagus (DMV) and increases their firing frequency by reducing TWIK‐2 channel conductance. Acidosis also activates astrocytes, which further enhance neuronal excitability through NMDA receptor‐dependent glutamatergic signalling.
