Ageing reveals the latent effects of early life stress on respiratory and metabolic function in female rats: Novel insights into the sex-specific origins of sleep apnoea. [PDF]

Exp Physiol
Abstract Sleep apnoea (SA) is ∼2 times more prevalent in men than women. However, this changes at menopause as the occurrence of SA increases and matches that of men. Menopause is a natural process, but it remains unclear why SA emerges only in a subpopulation of ageing women.

Measuring Respiratory Function in Mice Using Unrestrained Whole-body Plethysmography [PDF]

Journal of Visualized Experiments, 2014
Respiratory dysfunction is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in the world and the rates of mortality continue to rise. Quantitative assessment of lung function in rodent models is an important tool in the development of future therapies.

An open-source tool for automated analysis of breathing behaviors in common marmosets and rodents

eLife, 2022
The respiratory system maintains homeostatic levels of oxygen (O2) and carbon dioxide (CO2) in the body through rapid and efficient regulation of breathing frequency and depth (tidal volume).

Evaluation of the Sensory Stimulation Intensity of Representative Spicy Flavor Substances Using Whole-Body Plethysmography [PDF]

Shipin Kexue
This study aimed to investigate the impact of spicy stimuli on the respiratory status of rats inhaling aerosols of spicy substances. The intensity of spicy stimuli was characterized by examining changes in multiple respiratory function indicators ...

Normative reference equations of airway dynamics assessed by whole‐body plethysmography during spontaneous breathing evaluated in infants, children, and adults

Physiological Reports, 2021
Effective specific airway resistance (sReff), its reciprocal the effective specific airway conductance (sGeff) are computed as ratios between the integral of the resistive aerodynamic work of breathing (sWOB) and the integral of the tidal flow/volume ...

A role for TASK-1 (KCNK3) channels in the chemosensory control of breathing [PDF]

, 2008
Acid-sensitive K+ channels of the tandem P-domain K+-channel family (TASK-1 and TASK-3) have been implicated in peripheral and central respiratory chemosensitivity; however, because of the lack of decisive pharmacological agents, the final proof of the ...

Respiratory‐Limbic Coupling via a Thalamic Circuit Alleviates Anxiety

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study delineates a conserved preBötCGlu→PVT→CeA circuit that gates anxiety and respiration. Activation of this circuit is anxiolytic and respiratory‐stabilizing, while its inhibition has the opposite effect. Mechanistically, PVT exerts its anxiolytic action via a disinhibitory microcircuit: its inputs preferentially target CeL GABAergic neurons ...

Modification and Application of a Commercial Whole-body Plethysmograph to Monitor Respiratory Abnormalities in Neonatal Mice

Bio-Protocol, 2017
Proper breathing is essential for mammals to acquire oxygen after birth and requires coordinated actions among several tissues, including diaphragm, intercostal muscles, trachea, bronchi, lung and respiration-regulating neurons located in the medulla ...
