新生児げっ歯類から単離された脳幹・脊髄調製物の電気生理学は、ニューラルネットワーク呼吸器の出力の記録を可能にします

The central respiratory drive is located in the brainstem. Spontaneous respiratory motor output from an isolated brainstem-spinal cord is recorded by placing an electrode on the fourth ventral root. This experimental approach is valuable for pharmacological investigations or the assessment of respiratory challenges and genetic manipulations on rhythmic motor behavior.
