ATP actions on central inspiratory networks are determined by a three-part signaling system comprising: i) excitatory actions of ATP at P2 receptors (Rs) ii) ectonucleotidases that degrade ATP into adenosine (ADO), and iii) inhibitory actions of ADO at P1Rs. During hypoxia, an initial increase in...

Postnatal development of the purinergic signaling system in the preBötzinger Complex; implications for the hypoxic ventilatory response
DownloadFall 2023
Low oxygen (hypoxia) evokes the biphasic hypoxic ventilatory response (HVR), in which carotid-body chemoreceptors trigger a rapid increase in ventilation (VE) followed by a centrally-mediated, secondary hypoxic depression of respiration (HRD) and metabolic rate (VO2) that involves adenosine. In...
