Coherence analysis of the calcium activity of putative astrocytic and neuronal cells on the L5 ventral horn and neural output in activated lumbar CPG networks

Itaru Yazawa et al.

Summary: The study suggests that putative astrocytes and neurons in the ventral horn of the spinal cord may play a crucial role in maintaining synaptic function and metabolism to generate rhythms and patterns of locomotor-like activity by communicating with central pattern generator networks.

Advancing respiratory-cardiovascular physiology with the working heart-brainstem preparation over 25 years

Julian F. R. Paton et al.

Summary: This review article discusses the progress and potential future applications of the working heart-brainstem preparation (WHBP) in cardiovascular, neuroendocrine, autonomic and respiratory research. The WHBP is a novel in situ experimental model that provides unprecedented access and stability for studying physiological mechanisms. It has revealed new insights into various mechanisms related to respiratory rhythms, sympathetic activity, coupling between respiration and the heart, control mechanisms in the hypothalamus and spinal cord, and chemoreceptor mechanisms. These findings have been validated in vivo and have translated to humans. The article also discusses potential future applications of the WHBP, such as two-photon imaging and pharmacogenetic tools, for improving our understanding and treatment of cardiorespiratory diseases.

Effects of acetylcholine on hypoglossal and C4 nerve activity in brainstem-spinal cord preparations from newborn rat

Shino Katsuki et al.

Summary: Research showed that ACh has various effects on respiratory activity, such as increasing respiratory rhythm, decreasing burst amplitude of hypoglossal and C4 nerves, and enhancing pre-inspiratory hypoglossal activity.
