Intravenous infusion of Hacetate in conscious rabbits induces a greater decrease in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) [HCO3-] and arterial CO2 partial pressure (PaCO2) than does HCl, HNO3, or Hacetate. To test whether acetate per se can stimulate central chemoreceptors, HCl- or Hacetate-acidified mock CSF was infused via the cisterna magna in conscious rabbits with catheters preimplanted under anesthesia. HCl infusion induced a greater decrease in PaCO2 refuting this hypothesis. To evaluate the role of the carotid body HCl and Hacetate were infused intravenously in an intact (CB+) and a chemodenervated group (CB-). In CB+ rabbits Hacetate infusion produced a greater decrease in PaCO2. In CB- rabbits, the fractional decrease in arterial PaCO2 was less for both acids compared with that of the CB+ rabbits, but it was significantly greater for Hacetate infusion (21.2 +/- 2.5%, mean +/- SE) than for HCl infusion (14.5 +/- 1.8%). Thus the carotid body is not necessary for the greater Hacetate ventilatory stimulation. The working hypothesis is that nonionic diffusion of Hacetate into brain or acetate replacement of HCO3- in CSF production lowers [HCO3-] near central chemoreceptors. 相似文献

Medullary raphé serotonergic neurons are chemosensitive in culture and are situated adjacent to blood vessels in the brain stem. Selective lesioning of serotonergic raphé neurons decreases the ventilatory response to systemic CO2 in awake and sleeping adult rats. Abnormalities in the medullary serotonergic system, including the raphé, have been implicated in the sudden infant death syndrome (48). In this study, we ask whether serotonergic neurons in the medullary raphé and extra-raphé regions are involved in the CO2 response in unanesthetized newborn piglets, 3-16 days old. Whole body plethysmography was used to examine the ventilatory response to 5% CO2 before and during focal inhibition of serotonergic neurons by 8-hydroxy-2-di-n-propylaminotetralin (8-OH-DPAT), a 5-HT1A receptor agonist. 8-OH-DPAT (10 or 30 mM in artificial cerebrospinal fluid) decreased the CO2 response in wakefulness in an age-dependent manner, as revealed by a linear regression analysis that showed a significant negative correlation (P < 0.001) between the percent change in the CO2 response and piglet age. Younger piglets showed an exaggerated CO2 response. Control dialysis with artificial cerebrospinal fluid had no significant effect on the CO2 response. Additionally, 8-OH-DPAT increased blood pressure and decreased heart rate independent of age (P < 0.05). Finally, sleep cycling was disrupted by 8-OH-DPAT, such that piglets were awake more and asleep less (P < 0.05). Because of the fragmentary sleep data, it was not possible to examine the CO2 response in sleep. Inhibition of serotonergic medullary raphé and extra-raphé neurons decreases ventilatory CO2 sensitivity and alters cardiovascular variables and sleep cycling, which may contribute to the sudden infant death syndrome. 相似文献

Diethyl pyrocarbonate (DEPC) has been useful in vitro as an agent relatively specific for binding to imidazole of histidine. Administered via the cisterna magna DEPC inhibits central chemosensitivity in conscious rabbits, supporting the alphastat hypothesis for central chemoreceptor function. In this study I have applied DEPC via 1 X 3 mm cottonoid pledgets to each of the three ventrolateral medulla (VLM) chemosensitive areas in glomectomized, vagotomized, paralyzed, and servo-ventilated alpha-chloralose-urethan-anesthetized cats. CO2 responses measured by integrated phrenic nerve output were evaluated before and after DEPC application. A dose of 40 mmol/l applied to the rostral chemosensitive area increased the CO2 threshold (5.3%) and significantly decreased (P less than 0.03; Wilcoxon sign rank test) the initial slope (-43%) and the maximum (-41%) of the CO2 response. No significant effects were observed with DEPC application in the intermediate or caudal areas. Treatment with 40 mmol/l hydroxylamine immediately after DEPC in the rostral area prevented the effects supporting the interpretation that imidazole was the reactant with DEPC. The results are consistent with the hypothesis that imidazole-histidine is involved in the mechanism of central chemoreception and indicate that only the rostral area utilizes a DEPC inhibitable mechanism. 相似文献
