Astrocyte chemoreceptors: Mechanisms of H(+)-sensing by astrocytes in the retrotrapezoid nucleus and their possible contribution to respiratory drive
Central chemoreception is the mechanism by which CO(2)/pH-sensitive neurons (i.e., chemoreceptors) regulate breathing presumably in response to changes in tissue pH. A region of the brainstem called the retrotrapezoid nucleus (RTN) is thought to be an important site of chemoreception (Guyenet et al....
