Neurotransmission and Neuromodulation Involved in the Control of Respiration

  • Chapter

  • 123 Accesses

Abstract

In classical textbooks of physiology the network generating respiratory rhythm was described as an “oscillator”, and it used to be modelled “cybernetically” by analogy to electronic oscillators. Such an interpretation resulted from the then-actual concept of synaptic transmission as a mere continuation of nerve conduction.
