Nucleus tractus solitarii is required for the development and maintenance of phrenic and sympathetic long-term facilitation after acute intermittent hypoxia
Exposure to acute intermittent hypoxia (AIH) induces prolonged increases (long term facilitation, LTF) in phrenic and sympathetic nerve activity (PhrNA, SNA) under basal conditions, and enhanced respiratory and sympathetic responses to hypoxia. The mechanisms and neurocircuitry involved are not full...
