Orexin induces excitation of respiratory neuronal network in isolated brainstem spinal cord of neonatal rat

Highlights • We analyze effects of orexin on central respiratory control using the isolated brainstem–spinal cord preparation of newborn rats. • Orexin produces dose-dependent increases in C4 burst rate via brainstem. • The increases in C4 respiratory activities are associated with orexin-induced de...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • We analyze effects of orexin on central respiratory control using the isolated brainstem–spinal cord preparation of newborn rats. • Orexin produces dose-dependent increases in C4 burst rate via brainstem. • The increases in C4 respiratory activities are associated with orexin-induced depolarization of pre-inspiratory and inspiratory neurons.
