In 63 anesthetized, paralyzed, vagotomized and artificially ventilated rabbits, we have observed the effects of muscle spindle afferents induced by intraarterial injection succinylcholine (Sch) on discharges of respiration related neurons in the medulla.

Effect of muscle spindle afferent invoked by intraarterial injection of succinylcholine (Sch) on respiration was assessed by changes in unit discharge of respiration related neurons and phrenic nerve of 63 anesthetized, bilaterally vagotomized and artificially ventilated rabbits.

Objective To study the role of non-NMDA receptors in modulating activities of inspiratory neurons and biphasic expiratory neurons in the brain stem slice.

Possible roles of non NMDA receptors in reciprocal excitation among the biphasic expiratory neurons and in excitatory synaptic inputs to inspiratory neurons were investiga.

Effect of stimulation of the facial nucleus on discharge of respiratory neurons in the pre-Btzinger complex and its neurotransmitter mechanism in rats;

Aim and Methods: In 36 anesthetized spontaneously breathing Sprague-Dawley rats, the types of respiratory neurons and the state of neurotransmitters and receptors in nucleus paragigantocellularis lateralis (PGCL) were studied with extracellular recording technique and multibarrel microelectrode techniques.

The purpose of the experiment was to explore the respiratory neurons in the ventral medial area of nucleus facialis(vmNF)through extracellularly recording the discharge patterns of neuronal units.

Study on distribution of respiratory neurons in the in vitro brainstem slice from neonatal rat and mechanisms of the primary respiratory rhythm generation;

To explore the respiratory neurons in the pre Botzinger comlex(pre Bot.
