Inhibition of the pontine Kölliker-Fuse nucleus reduces genioglossal activity elicited by stimulation of the retrotrapezoid chemoreceptor neurons

Highlights • Stimulation of central chemoreflex elicits an increase in genioglossal EMG activity. • Histological evidence for glutamatergic and GABAergic inputs to the KF region from RTN chemoreceptors. • Inhibition in KF region abolishes the GG response due to increased RTN activity. • KF integrate...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • Stimulation of central chemoreflex elicits an increase in genioglossal EMG activity. • Histological evidence for glutamatergic and GABAergic inputs to the KF region from RTN chemoreceptors. • Inhibition in KF region abolishes the GG response due to increased RTN activity. • KF integrates and modulates breathing during chemoreceptor activation.
