Pre-phrenic interneurons: Characterization and role in phrenic pattern formation and respiratory recovery following spinal cord injury
2019, Respiratory Physiology and NeurobiologyHistological identification of phrenic afferent projections to the spinal cord
2017, Respiratory Physiology and NeurobiologyCitation Excerpt :The phrenic nerve is comprised of approximately 50% somatic and sympathetic efferent fibers, and 50% sensory afferents (Landau et al., 1962; Langford and Schmidt, 1983; Goshgarian and Roubal, 1986a; Gottschall, 1981).
The pattern and extent of retrograde transsynaptic transport of WGA-Alexa 488 in the phrenic motor system is dependent upon the site of application
2014, Journal of Neuroscience MethodsCitation Excerpt :This was not apparent in our previous study involving the intradiaphragmatic injection of WGA-HRP (Moreno et al., 1992). We and others have shown that HRP alone will be retrogradely transported to phrenic motor neurons when injected into the diaphragm (Webber et al., 1979, Boulenquez et al., 2007) or applied to the cut phrenic nerve (Goshgarian and Roubal, 1986, Goshgarian and Rafols, 1981, 1984), but HRP alone does not mediate retrograde transsynaptic transport. There is a possibility that the Alexa 488 component of the conjugate used could mediate transsynaptic transport, but this is unlikely since Mantilla et al. (2009) demonstrated that Alexa 488 conjugated to the β subunit of cholera toxin does not mediate transsynaptic transport in the phrenic motor system.
Spinal respiratory motoneurons and interneurons
2011, Respiratory Physiology and NeurobiologyCitation Excerpt :Both inhibitory and excitatory SRIs have been identified that may influence cervical and thoracic respiratory motoneurons either directly, or indirectly via supraspinal or other spinal neurons (e.g. Aminoff and Sears, 1971; Bellingham, 1999; Bellingham and Lipski, 1990; Kirkwood et al., 1993). In addition, SRI bursting can be modulated by supraspinal neurons (Hoskin and Duffin, 1987; Mateika and Duffin, 1989), and phrenic (Chandler et al., 1998; Goshgarian and Roubal, 1986; Iscoe and Duffin, 1996), intercostal (Bellingham, 1999), abdominal (Iscoe, 2000), and vagal afferents (Dawkins et al., 1992; Duffin et al., 1994). Accordingly, SRIs represent a highly heterogeneous population of cells that can potentially integrate numerous circuits (Billig et al., 2000; Lane et al., 2008b), coordinate reflex functions (Bellingham, 1999; Douse et al., 1992; Downman, 1955; Eccles et al., 1962), and mediate descending supraspinal input to lower respiratory motoneurons (Anker et al., 2006; Butler, 2007; Hayashi et al., 2003; Lane et al., 2008b; Palisses et al., 1989; Palisses and Viala, 1987).
Projection sites of superficial and deep spinal dorsal horn cells in the nucleus tractus solitarii of the rat
2001, Brain ResearchCitation Excerpt :NTS-projecting dorsal horn neurons in these laminae are few in number [42,46], but they mainly respond to mechanical stimuli (Gamboa-Esteves et al., unpublished data). It is conceivable that some deep dorsal horn cells projecting to the lateral NTS could receive inputs from mechanoreceptive afferent fibres innervating the muscles of respiration and variously reported as having branches forming terminals in laminae III–VII [27,50]. Therefore, such projections could represent either the ascending limb of a neural loop linking the deep dorsal horn and lateral NTS neurons involved in pain control, or a pathway by which somatic inputs can modulate respiratory neurons of the lateral NTS.
