Abstract
Long-term facilitation (LTF) of respiration has been mainly initiated by intermittent hypoxia and resultant chemoreceptor stimulation in humans. Comparable levels of chemoreceptor stimulation can occur in combined exercise and carbon dioxide (CO2) inhalation and lead to LTF. This possibility was supported by data collected during combined interval exercise and 3% inhaled CO2 in seven normal subjects. These data were further analyzed based on the dynamics involved using mathematical models in this study. Previously estimated peripheral chemoreceptor sensitivity during light exercise (40 W) with air or 3% inhaled CO2 approximately doubled resting sensitivity. Ventilation after a delay increased by 17.0 ± 2.48 L/min (p < 0.001) during recovery following 45% maximal oxygen uptake ([Formula: see text] ) exercise consistent with LTF which exceeded what can be achieved with intermittent hypoxia. Model fitting of the dynamic responses was used to separate neural from chemoreceptor-mediated CO2 responses. Exercise of 45% [Formula: see text] was followed by ventilation augmentation following initial recovery. Augmentation of LTF developed slowly according to second-order dynamics in accordance with plasticity involving a balance between self-excitatory and self-inhibitory neuronal pools.

Leptin signaling in the dorsomedial hypothalamus couples breathing and metabolism in obesity. Cell Rep 2023; 42:113512. [PMID: 38039129 PMCID: PMC10804286 DOI: 10.1016/j.celrep.2023.113512] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/14/2023] [Revised: 10/25/2023] [Accepted: 11/14/2023] [Indexed: 12/03/2023] Open
Abstract
Mismatch between CO2 production (Vco2) and respiration underlies the pathogenesis of obesity hypoventilation. Leptin-mediated CNS pathways stimulate both metabolism and breathing, but interactions between these functions remain elusive. We hypothesized that LEPRb+ neurons of the dorsomedial hypothalamus (DMH) regulate metabolism and breathing in obesity. In diet-induced obese LeprbCre mice, chemogenetic activation of LEPRb+ DMH neurons increases minute ventilation (Ve) during sleep, the hypercapnic ventilatory response, Vco2, and Ve/Vco2, indicating that breathing is stimulated out of proportion to metabolism. The effects of chemogenetic activation are abolished by a serotonin blocker. Optogenetic stimulation of the LEPRb+ DMH neurons evokes excitatory postsynaptic currents in downstream serotonergic neurons of the dorsal raphe (DR). Administration of retrograde AAV harboring Cre-dependent caspase to the DR deletes LEPRb+ DMH neurons and abolishes metabolic and respiratory responses to leptin. These findings indicate that LEPRb+ DMH neurons match breathing to metabolism through serotonergic pathways to prevent obesity-induced hypoventilation.

Abstract
The study investigated the role of alpha2-adrenergic receptors of the caudal raphe region in the sympathetic and cardiovascular responses to the acute intermittent hypercapnia (AIHc). Urethane-anesthetized, vagotomized, mechanically ventilated Sprague-Dawley rats (n=38) were exposed to the AIHc protocol (5×3 min, 15 % CO2+50 % O2) in hyperoxic background (50 % O2). alpha2-adrenergic receptor antagonist-yohimbine was applied intravenously (1 mg/kg, n=9) or microinjected into the caudal raphe region (2 mM, n=12) prior to exposure to AIHc. Control groups of animals received saline intravenously (n=7) or into the caudal raphe region (n=10) prior to exposure to AIHc. Renal sympathetic nerve activity (RSNA), mean arterial pressure (MAP) and heart rate (HR) were monitored before exposure to the AIHc protocol (T0), during five hypercapnic episodes (THc1-5) and at 15 min following the end of the last hypercapnic episode (T15). Following intravenous administration of yohimbine, RSNA was significantly greater during THc1-5 and at T15 than in the control group (P<0.05). When yohimbine was microinjected into the caudal raphe region, AIHc elicited greater increases in RSNA during THc1-5 when compared to the controls (THc1: 138.0+/-4.0 % vs. 123.7+/-4.8 %, P=0.032; THc2: 137.1+/-5.0 % vs. 124.1+/-4.5 %, P=0.071; THc3: 143.1+/-6.4 % vs. 122.0±4.8 %, P=0.020; THc4: 146.1+/-6.2 % vs. 120.7+/-5.7 %, P=0.007 and THc5: 143.2+/-7.7 % vs. 119.2+/-7.2 %, P=0.038). During THc1-5, significant decreases in HR from T0 were observed in all groups, while changes in MAP were observed in the group that received yohimbine intravenously. These findings suggest that blockade of the alpha2-adrenegic receptors in the caudal raphe region might have an important role in sympathetic responses to AIHc.

Abstract
While spinal cord injuries (SCIs) result in a vast array of functional deficits, many of which are life threatening, the majority of SCIs are anatomically incomplete. Spared neural pathways contribute to functional and anatomical neuroplasticity that can occur spontaneously, or can be harnessed using rehabilitative, electrophysiological, or pharmacological strategies. With a focus on respiratory networks that are affected by cervical level SCI, the present review summarizes how non-invasive respiratory treatments can be used to harness this neuroplastic potential and enhance long-term recovery. Specific attention is given to "respiratory training" strategies currently used clinically (e.g., strength training) and those being developed through pre-clinical and early clinical testing [e.g., intermittent chemical stimulation via altering inhaled oxygen (hypoxia) or carbon dioxide stimulation]. Consideration is also given to the effect of training on non-respiratory (e.g., locomotor) networks. This review highlights advances in this area of pre-clinical and translational research, with insight into future directions for enhancing plasticity and improving functional outcomes after SCI.

Abstract
Intermittent hypoxia induces respiratory neuroplasticity to enhance respiratory motor outputs and is a potential rehabilitative strategy to improve respiratory function following cervical spinal injury. The present study was designed to evaluate the functional role of intermittent and sustained carbon dioxide (CO2) on intermittent hypoxia-induced ventilatory responses in rats with mid-cervical spinal contusion. The breathing pattern of unanesthetized rats at the subchronic and chronic injured stages was measured in response to one of the following treatments: (1) Intermittent hypercapnic-hypoxia (10 × 5 min 10%O2 + 4%CO2 with 5 min normoxia interval); (2) Intermittent hypoxia with sustained hypercapnia (10 × 5 min 10%O2 + 4%CO2 with 5 min 21%O2 + 4%CO2 interval); (3) Intermittent hypoxia (10 × 5 min 10%O2 with 5 min normoxia interval); (4) Intermittent hypercapnia (10 × 5 min 21%O2 + 4%CO2 with 5 min normoxia interval); (5) Sustained hypercapnia (100 min, 21% O2 + 4% CO2); (6) Sustained normoxia (100 min, 21% O2). The results demonstrated that intermittent hypoxia associated with intermittent hypercapnia or sustained hypercapnia induced a greater ventilatory response than sustained hypercapnia during stimulus exposure. The tidal volume was significantly enhanced to a similar magnitude following intermittent hypercapnic-hypoxia, intermittent hypoxia with sustained hypercapnia, and intermittent hypoxia in subchronically injured animals; however, only intermittent hypercapnic-hypoxia and intermittent hypoxia were able to evoke long-term facilitation of the tidal volume at the chronic injured stage. These results suggest that mild intermittent hypercapnia did not further enhance the therapeutic effectiveness of intermittent hypoxia-induced respiratory recovery in mid-cervical contused animals. However, sustained hypercapnia associated with intermittent hypoxia may blunt ventilatory responses following intermittent hypoxia at the chronic injured stage.

Abstract
Excessive nitric oxide (NO) causes extensive damage to the nervous system, and the adrenergic system is disordered in many neuropsychiatric diseases. However, the role of the adrenergic system in protection of the nervous system against sodium nitroprusside (SNP) injury remains unclear. In this study, we investigated the effect of ganoderic acid A (GA A) against SNP injury in neural cells and the role of adrenergic receptors in GA A neuroprotection. We found that SNP (0.125-2 mM) dose-dependently decreased the viability of both SH-SY5Y and PC12 cells and markedly increased NO contents. Pretreatment with GA A (10 μM) significantly attenuated SNP-induced cytotoxicity and NO increase in SH-SY5Y cells, but not in PC12 cells. Furthermore, pretreatment with GA A caused significantly higher adrenaline content in SH-SY5Y cells than in PC12 cells. In order to elucidate the mechanism of GA A-protecting SH-SY5Y cells, we added adrenaline, phentolamine, metoprolol, or ICI 118551 1 h before GA A was added to the culture medium. We found that addition of adrenaline (10 μM) significantly improved GA A protection in PC12 cells. The addition of β1-adrenergic receptor antagonist metoprolol (10 μM) or β2-adrenergic receptor antagonist ICI 118551 (0.1 μM) blocked the protective effect of GA A, whereas the addition of α-adrenergic receptor antagonist phentolamine (0.1 μM) did not affect GA A protection in SH-SY5Y cells. These results suggest that β-adrenergic receptors play an important role in the protection of GA A in SH-SY5Y cells against SNP injuries, and excessive adrenaline system activation caused great damage to the nervous system.

Abstract
Advances in our understanding of brain mechanisms for the hypoxic ventilatory response, coordinated changes in blood pressure, and the long-term consequences of chronic intermittent hypoxia as in sleep apnea, such as hypertension and heart failure, are giving impetus to the search for therapies to "erase" dysfunctional memories distributed in the carotid bodies and central nervous system. We review current network models, open questions, sex differences, and implications for translational research.
