Glia modulation of the extracellular milieu as a factor in central CO(2) chemosensitivity and respiratory control

We discuss the influence of astrocytes on respiratory function, particularly central CO(2) chemosensitivity. Fluorocitrate (FC) poisons astrocytes, and studies in intact animals using FC provide strong evidence that disrupting astrocytic function can influence CO(2) chemosensitivity and ventilation....
