Abstract
Afferent input from the carotid body chemoreceptors to single brainstem neurons has been studied very little. Trzebski and Peterson (19) demonstrated that stimulation of the carotid chemoreceptors by close intra-arterial injection of lobeline influenced the pattern of discharge of inspiratory and expiratory medullary neurons. Similar results were recently obtained by Davies and Edwards (3). However, for the analysis of the chemoreceptor-induced sympathetic and cardiovagal reflexes, the input to those medullary neurons that are silent or do not show any obvious respiratory modulation of their spontaneous activity seems to be of more interest.
This study was supported by the Polish Academy of Sciences grant 10.4.
